Somerset musician John Morgan died at the age of 80 on Friday in Gloucester Royal Hospital.

The band's manager said he was their "oldest drummer in captivity" and had been performing with them since 1981 up until two weeks ago."

This celebrity slaughter seems to have no end

With these deaths from the south-west Pam Ayres must be bricking it

Ha, i noticed you have mentioned said plod kicking twice today Forest, get pulled over last night?

What a bunch of t***s. What on earth do they think they will achieve? I suppose though we ought to take some comfort in the fact, that so far anyway, they haven't stormed Parliament.

Can only see one black, and no Asian, faces. Mostly middle-aged men. Which fits the expected profile for this kind of thing. I know it's outside but not a mask anywhere and not too much social distancing, both of which make sense at this time.

Maybe they are all trying to catch Omicron now, so they can be sure of a ventilator if they need it. A month or so later, the NHS may be having to be forced to prioritise. I wonder on what basis that kind of decision would be made?

I know what it ought to be, but am sure it won't.

IF they were chanting"the party was there, the party was there, go and arrest them, the party was there", outside downing street, I would tip my hat, or even join them!

Weren’t you at a super spreader event midweek?

No

I decided it was becoming too dangerous.

That is what is known as taking personal responsibility, something people keep claiming is the right thing to do and then completely ignoring their own philosophy.
