well lets just be sorry for him. Cancer of the oesophagus - not a nice way to go.

A bit like Clarkson, entertaining but annoying. There are teachers and social workers and people like that dealing with the shit as best they can. And you never feel he had much respect for the people who dealt with that side of things.

why can't we all aspire to being a clever bugger like me. and none of the rest of you have any claim or right to be educated. It was that sort of arrogance that put me off.

but having said all that, I'm sorry he suffered.
