No problems Greg

It's just I love the progs from 'my time', eg The Sweeney, Bergerac, Callan, Buds of May etc that I noticed, in some capacity, his name on most of them... so I researched him, and admired his contribution to the programmes I liked. So it hit me personally, when I saw his name in the obituary... another reminder of our mortality.

I loved his stuff to. Even though I was young at the time.

My Dad died just short of 84 - my view at that age, despite the sadness - was that he had been given a good time on this earth, so I felt able to celebrate his life and not just mourn his passing.

We do all have to decease at some time . . . . . hopefully later rather than sooner.

Neither do I want to appear insensitive by my thoughts.
