A news flash has just come up on my phone advising as to the sad but probably not entirely unexpected death of Mark E Smith.
Other bigger fans than me will no doubt post poignant and eloquent tributes and I suspect that the blogsphere and social media may well go into meltdown.
In the meantime I'll leave you with a couple of numbers from the Groupe
Rest easy Mark
The Fall - Totally Wired
The Fall -Spoilt Victorian Child
So I was sitting in a pub in Guernsey around 7pm and two guys were talking about this and I thought it was a joke or something. So I check the news. Nothing. So I decided to check the blogs. Nothing. So I shrug drink up and walk back to my hotel. To find its true. Shit. Double shit in fact.

Just arrived home to the news. To quote Swc, shit.
ReplyDeleteI was in the middle of a long and involved work call and BBC news flashed the news on to my phone sitting just below my computer screen. I put my self on mute and said "shit" under my breath to myself.
