Went to Charlie's funeral today...
Sep. 18th, 2017 10:44 pmLots of folk there. Chaps from the Popes sent messages. Lots of musos, folk from Upland Road, and friends and rellies from all around.
We'd talked about putting a band together last year. Instead I moved out to my flat, and Charlie, who was only fifty-three, found he had Cancer. He fought against it, of course. He is survived by his wife and son. May their grief be short, and their memories everlasting.
Also saw someone else pertinent to my life has died. Pertinent to all of our lives, actually.

Honour to Lt Col Stanislav Petrov, and to his memory, and to his shared humanity.
