Goodness, I missed that Raquel Welch had died. Seeing her in a tiny bikini in ‘One Million Years BC’ was a bit of a milestone for me growing up!

For those of a certain age, i.e. most of us here, it’s an uncomfortable reminder of the years passing all to quickly.

I also find it is as if your own personal world is shrinking.

My dream of living to see Norwich winning the Premiership, FA Cup, well anything come to that, before I die, seems far more unlikely with each passing year.

Let’s just hope we are wrong :crossed_fingers:

A couple of latecomers to the list over the last few days unfortunately. Including the most excellent Tom Wilkinson who died suddenly earlier today.
