Vale, Vale....


Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone.
Silence the pianos...
The news we'd all been dreading was broken yesterday by Old Holborn on Twitter:


Fare thee well, wherever you are...

It's not always the case that a fabulous humane life-affirming personality comes across so clearly online.

It was so for AR, in Spades.

Rest well, with a life well lived.

Sad news.

An amazing woman. Feel so privileged to have come across her site some time ago.

Oi you said...

Her blog was one of the first I'd turn to whenever I fired up my PC. In a world of sensationalist spin, pure exaggeration and downright lies, she was a breath of fresh air. She will be missed.

Expected news, but oh so sad. What a woman of indomitable spirit - reading her blog made me think objectively. I will never forget her.

Sums it up nicely.
