Just listening to a news report/obit on him.  Sad.
Are your, or your friends'/relatives', garages, lofts or sheds full of unused DIY gear, sewing/knitting machines or fabric and haberdashery stuff?

One heck of a year.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Very sad.  My husband has just been playing "Rocking all over the world", in tribute.

I've seen the Quo a couple of times at Wembley and once at an outdoor thing, they always put on a great show.

I remember Rossi ice cream vans playing, "Pictures of Matchstick Men", when it was a big hit.

RIP Rick.

Yes, so young!

Brownie, I've seen the Quo a couple of times, as well. Their shows were good. The ones I attended, each time, it seemed the whole audience spent the evening on their feet! I remember feeling quite exhausted at the end of the performance.

Rest in Peace, Rick.

So now heaven is being rocked all over... :) ;)
