@donsteppa Yeah just checked and it looks like it hasn't been updated in a while. Congratulations though to Prince Philip alive and well and into his second century. Betty must be pleased.... Haven't looked at the site for quite a while TBH

Wilbur Smith at 88 Have read a little bit of his stuff and it was always good fun. Am a little sad. My favourite author through my teenage years. However it became a case of if you read one you'd read them all. Got a little bored of his Courtneys of Africa saga (for some reason I didn't like the characters or story line) so gave up on him. Did get a lot of enjoyment from his work.

They were easy reads, think I read first one when I was like 12 and felt good because you would think you’ve just read this massive big epic and so read a few ore

Not sure if this was mentioned elsewhere as a little late but in the past few months a couple of the originals from UB40 passed away. Brian Travers (the saxaphone that was a signature on their early stuff) and Astro. Before the cheesy money making covers their first album was brilliant and a real cultural crossover. 
 Funny how much they'd NZs Herbs sound alike.
RIP 2021
