Gerry Rafferty RIP

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

It's my Dad's birthday today and Baker Street is his favourite ever song. Ironic eh? RIP.

Sad news :(

Baker Street was one of, if not THE, song of my childhood.

Is anyone going to mention the fact* that Bob Holness played sax on Baker Street?

* Not actually a fact

RIP Gerry.
