Death generally

Well, since my last post, Bolly had died and we've all been slightly shell shocked to be quite honest. He'd had cancer and liver failure brought on by a life of hedonism, but that's no excuse is it? The way I found out was horrible; Rope emailed me and said that he'd just heard from AJ about it and thought I should know. I phoned James and he said to speak to Pat. When I called him he was very angry that I'd heard it via email, even though that's the way things are now. He said that he knew for an hour but didn't want to contact me because I had a 40 mile journey to get through to get home. All hell broke loose and i had to come home anyway. The funeral was very sad indeed, made worse I think by the room full of men sobbing their hearts out. the wake was a relief and it got very messy indeed. Not for me though, so that was good as i had to go to work the next day. Since then, I've had a week off and felt very out of sorts but i think that's because I've not been sleeping at all well. Never mind, I'm sure it will calm down soon.
