Paddy Ashdown  rubschin:

Bladder cancer  rubschin: rubschin: scared2: scared2:
I was hoping you hadn't seen that one, every case is unique though

As for Ashdown I'm struggling to find anything good to say about him.

A bit of a twat politically... but didn't he have quite a war record...?  rubschin:
Reading his obit not really, that was more his father

But seems he was an MI-6 agent for a time and I suspect we'll never hear what he did there or didn't

A friend writes:

While litter picking on Castlemorton Common I pass a place where a motorcyclist was killed and occasionally commemorative flowers are placed there. When they are withered, I remove them.

This time there was a Christmas message to the deceased with news of the family. The card began  " I hope you are well".

Nearly 75 years ago but tough to watch this story about 10 US Airmen and one alive but ailing 82 year old Brit still feeling guilty and not feel moved

"Just met an amazing man in Endcliffe Park, Sheffield. Tony Foulds was an 8-yr-old playing in the park when a US plane crashed in Feb 1944. He has diligently maintained the memorial ever since. He was planting new flowers. Almost 75 yrs of service. What a man. I’m in bits . . .

Tony said he still feels guilty because if he hadn’t been in the park that day the plane could have landed safely. Instead the pilot avoided the children and crashed into the hill. "
