"Backwoodsman, FYI I did not know why Andy Kershaw was missing from his programme. I don't listen to commercial radio and I certainly don't buy gutter newspapers. I object to being called a 'troll'."

Apologies GUEST, but maybe you need to break out of that coccoon, it can't be healthy shutting yourself off from the rest of the world like that.

AK's sad demise has been reported in the 'serious' press (I believe I read about the case in The Independent, but it might have been the Torygraph) as well as the tabloids, and it has been reported on TV a number of times. I don't buy the 'gutter' press either, nor do I listen to commercial radio, but I still manage to have a grasp of what's going on around me.

Unfortunately, this forum is a medium often used by trolls who start with seemingly innocent questions or comments.

My last words.
