RIP Frank.

Fun fact... I met both Frank Field and Frank Ifield, through work and in Sainsburys respectively. Frank Ifield lived about half a mile from my house in Hertfordshire in the 80s.
I would say he taught me to yodel, but that would be silly. I could already yodel by the time I met him.
Loved those booksMaybe not that famous but I know many people enjoy his books and ironically the TV adaptation of his Shardlake series starts this week.

Wow, what timing. The TV mini-series based on the Shardlake books is out in a couple of days.

When you look at the path of life at 71 there’s not much in front of you but take a look back and there’s enough to pave the Suez Canal.I'm now 71. Like you fit and healthy, but I think 70 is a landmark, I don't know when "it" will happen the odds are getting shorter as you age. It could happen any time I suppose.
My SIL died of cancer not long ago aged 64. My 2 brothers died not long ago.
I fear cancer but I don't fear dying. But I'd like to see my Grandkids grow up.
