The very same Hobsbawm whose book I was reading.

To bring an end to this jinx,you better read AJP Taylor,Marx,Engels or Churchill all long since gone.

Hobsawm's snuffed it?  He was good.  About the only history book I ever read and enjoyed.

One of my favourite historians died today... and it was announced that my favourite member of the Bargain Hunt team died last Wednesday. Lot of this 'death' about...
I had just read about David Barby passing away, that was a shock.

On Friday I was in a shop when some guy got hit by a lorry outside.

On Sunday I was held up for an hour because some silly twat thought it'd be ok to jump in front of a train in Slough. (Although if I lived there I'd probably do the same)

And today the author of the book I'm reading died.

It's me isn't it?

I know it would be a chore but can't you hang around outside the Kassam for a bit?
