CHEERS Kirstie x

 

Hard to believe she was 71. Still too young. Obviously excellent in cheers and she made one sexy Vulcan.

 

RIP Kirstie Alley xxx

 

My favourite comedy got even better when she came into it.
RIP

 

Been watching re runs in a morning. Still funnier than most stuff nowadays. My second favourite comedy behind Frasier.

 

RIP Kirstie, always came across as a wonderful lady and had the gift of comedy timing .. no age these days

 

Actually one from December last year that I missed at the time. Deaf and dumb round the world biker from Belarusia, Vladimir Yarets RIP

Had the pleasure of meeting him on the road in Italy.

The last British member of 617 Squadron, Johnny Johnson has passed away peacefully surrounded by his family at the age of 101.

George Leonard “Johnny” Johnson was born on the 25th of November 1921 and joined the Royal Air Force in 1940.

In 1943 he was selected to be part of 617 Squadron at RAF Scampton and to take part in Operation Chastise, more commonly known as the Dambuster Raids.

He finally retired from the RAF in 1962 as a Squadron Leader and became a teacher in Torquay where he lived with his wife Gwyn until she passed away in 2005. He also became a local councillor for the conservative party.

A campaign was launched for Johnny to be given a knighthood, a campaign that was backed by Carol Vorderman, which ultimately failed but he was made an MBE.

 

He didn't get a Knighthood, but Elton John did.

 

RIP Johnny Johnson,last of the dambusters..

 

RIP JOHNNY

 

He, and bomber command as a whole, didn't get a campaign medal either, disgraceful.

 

They certainly don't make them like Johnny Johnson anymore, selfless service, courage with dignity. RIP Johnny.

 

He'd said that if awarded one he'd want it dedicating to all the 55k bomber air crews who died in WWII. That's a death rate of 45%.

 

My friend Chris Allison . Those that lived in Sourh Cave will know him. Leaves behind a daughter and a wife. Always the funniest guy in the room. Heartbreaking.
