Knight for a few days
he went out in a blaze
Did he get the covid jab in time
If not, as that would have be a crime
He could have lasted another ten years
Yes, the young die so quick, it ends in tears
RIP

Did anybody clap?
There seemed to be a lot of push back against Johnson using him for publicity.
I had no intention of following Johnson's stage management,
opened the car window at the allotted time parked up at a quiet residential intersection.
Total silence.

I think we are past 'the clapping and banging on tin pots' stage.

I haven't heard anyone clap since last year.

We gave him the traditional 2 minutes, as was fitting of his life & rank.

This whole 'clapping' thing is too forced and is more at home in football stadiums, where there's more likely to be some idiots trying to ruin the moment.
