    Percy Tyrone Sledge R.I.P.



    PS ... his death was reported in a news outlet yesterday but he appears to have already passed away last year.

    We now appear to be repeating deaths as well as reporting new ones.

    One can't help thinking who in the public eye will be next to feel the Grim Reaper's scythe, the blade of which seems to have been sharpened for 2016

    It's got to the stage that every time someone over 50 'trends on Twitter' there is a wave of panic until it's clear that it wasn't because they'd died. Except when Bernie Ecclestone trended - there seemed to be a wave of disappointment when it was realised it was because he'd said something stupid....
