She clearly was very distressed and vulnerable. Every suicide is a tragedy and the immediate question is always one of whether anything could have been done to help her. Her friends and family especially will wrestle with that for a long time. I suspect that she had been battling with depression for some time, and that the decision to pursue with the assault charge was the final tipping point. It will be a complex mix of things that took her to this very tragic place though. Very sad. She had everything to live for in reality.

Apollo astronaut Al Worden has died at the age of 88.


Worden served as command module pilot for Apollo 15 with Dave Scott and Jim Irwin. During the mission Worden became the first human to carry out a deep space walk. He logged 38 minutes in extravehicular activity outside the command module, "Endeavour."

Very Sad..


Back in the 70's Myself and a friend were invited to go to Blenheim Palace to meet Lord Bath.

Cannot remember by who but it was a close family member.

We declined as we did not want to meet some Posh Rich person.

We had no idea about the Man at that time.


Really regretted it later..

I don't believe I was ever contrary to your way of thinking Sparticus. Every death is a tragic loss, whether in hospital, at home, in a care home, at home or abroad. It is painfully tragic that those looking after us on the front line are succumbing to the virus because they have not been given correct PPE.

Actually I quoted the message as it was when I replied this morning. It still reads 'foxy'! Not sure of the point you're making ianr. I did not participate in the thread you are quoting. Let's focus on the point of the thread, shall we?

    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
    • The MFI was probably where Iceland is now. This post makes me feel very old - went to a 30th birthday party in the garden at the back. Oh to be 30 again! 
    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet.
