I know he's got a face that's been lived in for several generations but what a life. He's a genuine survivor. He was on everyone's next to die list for over a decade and thankfully he's still with us to tell the tale and what a tale and what a life it's been. Get the book. It's a great read.

Great Musician and survivor but not a favourite of mine as he has cost me money on more than one occasion.


Several times put some dosh on him at work in our Annual

"Death List-Most Likely" and I thought 5/1 odds was more than fair, three times now.:X


He who lives longest laughs longest or summat like that.


Next year I'm on Ronnie Biggs and that Lebanese chappie.


P.S. Not that I'm bitter and twisted but he can live until he's 100 now. He ain't getting any more of my hard-earned!:-S

    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?  
    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
