The Scottish comedian Janey Godley died last night:

I’m not sure how well she is known outside of Scotland but she has appeared on programmes like Have I Got News For You as a panellist.

I actually knew her socially from the Scottish comedy circuit. A very funny woman who will be much missed.

What legend. RIP Quincy Jones, thank you for the wonderful music you gave us.

I bought my first ever vinyl single record with my weekly pocket money and it was Quincy Jone’s Ai No Corrida song. I still have it somewhere.

RIP to the oldest man in the world:

"The former accountant was born on 26 August 1912…20 years after the founding of the football team he followed all his life, Liverpool FC, meaning he lived through all eight of his club’s FA Cup wins and 17 of their 19 league title wins.

Does this mean @cynicaloldgit is now our oldest fan?

No. He’s been our oldest fan all this time.
You have no idea how ancient he is.
