Dame Vivienne Westwood, fashion designer, dies aged 81
Iconoclastic British designer rose to prominence by outfitting the Sex Pistols as punk took off in the 1970s
I have heard some who got to watch both players, tell me that it was a line ball call as to who was the actual better player out of Pele and George Best.
However the fact that George Best was a Northern Ireland international meant that he didn’t get the opportunity to test himself on the world stage of a World Cup finals. Giving Pele the edge.
RIP Ken Block, passed away in a snowmobile accident, incredible driver and co founder of DC Shoes
Anita Pointer of the Pointer sisters. Not exactly my taste in music but they had some big hits late 70's through to mid 80's

Vale Matron Sloane ............................. my mum never missed that show.Joan Sydney of A Country Practice fame. 1936-2022, RIP
Yeah, I remember it being on my household TV as a child. Pretty much every episode at the peak of it’s popularity. Two times per week it aired in that era. My mother was quite a fan of the show.
The Matron Sloane character reminds me of my own mother’s values and characteristics. Largely stern, no nonsense, believed in discipline and order, while having a compassionate and affectionate side. The stern, but guiding shepherd. Joan Sydney played the role so well.
Geez....people dying at a rate of knots. Now former Chelsea player and later manager Gianluca Vialli just before they became a powerhouse in the EPL from the 2000s.
Just 58 years old.

I’m sorry but I just couldn’t keep my secret any longer.
I guess I just have a thing for women with accents in uniform.
I was about 10 at the time.
All my friends were hot on I either chick from the Dukes of Hazard. I was always more mature and sophisticated than them!
