  1. Tom Karen 92, rip
    Designer of the Bond-bug, Scimitar and Raleigh Chopper.
     
  2. Sad news. I’m a big fan of The Associates and Cocteau Twins. Billy took he’s own life many years ago.

  3. Bloody hell, 2023 has gotten off to a great start! Ken Block! Only 55 :(
     
  4. Tragic enough that Billy died, and his death was following his mothers from cancer. Then his father died -again cancer- his brother died in a fire, his sister fell to her death from a first floor window, and then his nephew overdosed and died too.
     
  5. We nearly lost actor Jeremy Renner this week as well, but it’s looking like he’ll pull through. Apparently he ran himself over with his own snow plough.

  6. Walter Cunningham.
    Last surviving Apollo 7 astronaut has died aged 90.

  7. There’s no face palm emoji
     
  8. You should see the size of the thing, it’s bigger than a tractor. It’s a miracle he survived.
     
  9. My old boss (not directly but owned the company) and on the couple occasions I met him, came across as a down to earth nice bloke who showed interest in everyone who worked for him/in his company’s.

  10. Gianluca Vialli !

    Rip
     
  11. R.I.P. Gianluca, a good guy.:cool:
     
  12. Ain't it just... and evidently Graeme Souness broke down when asked about him and didn't want to talk about his football but just what a lovely man he was.

    And he came across as that sort of guy.

  13. Probably not someone a lot of people will know but Andrew Wheeler has passed away.

    Who was Andrew Wheeler, well he was one of the best MotoGP photographers for the last god knows how many years (a Brit as well). He was living in Texas and had had a torrid time since his wife died in 2014 from cancer, he suffered a mini stroke last year, I suspect he's probably had another stroke unfortunately.

    I followed him on Facebook and he posted most days, some bike related some not.
