Another day older and deeper in debt ...


V. Tam,

Some friends of mine made a pilgrimage to Spike Milligans Grave and found that in fact the family were refused permission to inscribe "I told you I was ill" on his headstone as he had requested, and in the end permission was only given on condition that it was written in Irish.

So Spikes intention that his grave should bring cheer to visitors of otherwise sombre place went unfufilled in the end.

They finally managed to muzzle him I guess.
