It’s alright though, his funeral was already paid for with his Sun Life over 50’s plan. I wonder what he spent his Amazon gift card on?

That's some day in the record books - Babe Ruth, Elvis, Aretha Franklin, Sean Lock, Shamu and Parky? Loads of big names.

Can't believe they're all dead bar John (who wasn't even an original member). Ronnie dead 16 years now. It was such a big deal I heard he died whilst on a flight back to Ireland
