Quote of the day: 'Sometimes goats will be applicable.' ['Today' Programme, Radio 4]

Hear that Frank?

Also am mourning the death of Alan Freeman, dear old 'Fluff', whom I used to listen to on Radio Luxembourg back in the sixties when the BBC was too grand for 'pop' music. He was, for back then, wildly exciting and innovative, reckoned that the music was more important than he was, unlike some of the sorry specimens on the airwaves now who yap far more than they play, and played everything. He was the first BBC dj to play what later became heavy metal, getting Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Judas Priest etc off to a good start.

So here's to Fluff. Will I miss him - not 'arf.

Edited to add:

Will the people who keep spraying a heartagram on the door of the museum stop it! Or if you can't stop it GET IT RIGHT. Honestly, you're so cack-handed!

It is hard to lose someone who meant someone to us through our lives, even when they are someone we don't know or may never meet. People like Fluff seem like friends...

(((HUG)))

And all the UK stuff! LOL! I have NO idea what you are saying! Cack-handed?? Not 'arf?? Not sure I can even guess what they mean...

HUGS and MISSING YOU!

Funny, I thought I didn't like him all that much, but he was so much a part of my childhood that I was surprised how upset I was to hear he'd died. Never heard him on Luxbembourg though, since I was on the wrong side of the country.
