Heard this on the radio this morning. Didn't even know he had cancer until then.

aye, saw a snippet an interview with him on granada reports (the local news channel) last night and he looked a shadow of his former self... it was quite heartbreaking really.

Good point. Although he famously never signed any contracts with his acts (or got them to sign any more importantly) and the Hacienda never made him any cash...you would still have thought he made a fair wage working for Granada. Maybe he really has no ability to manage money. I know the feeling....
