    Yes. I think he was one of 2016's casualties, wasn't he?

    I fear he had a murderous temper on him and am glad he never actually got at you
    He was a provo, basically. Saw everything - up to and including World War Two - through the prism of his deep and abiding hatred of England. I don't mind a bit of Irish nationalism here and there - hell, I'll even sing a rebel song myself if sufficiently drunk - but I cannot stand the breed who think Irish patriotism simply means hating England.

    I forget stuff these days though I won't forget David Bowie passing as I thought he was immortal.

    Imagine the enormous great brouhaha, kerfuffle and general to do there'll be the day McCartney takes a walk. Almost looking forward to it.

    That, though, is every last Jock I ever met.

    To be honest, if the last time I saw him was anything to go by, he's started embalming himself. Mind you, he looks the type to live to a hundred. He might see me out, tbh.

    Yet (I assume) he supported an English football club.

    Bizarre.

    Worth remembering all the same that for every Sgt Peppers or Rubber Soul or Revolver there is The Frog Chorus.

    There's a bit of pantomime in most Scots' 'hatred' of England imo. However, it's certainly every Scot Nat I've ever encountered. They all start off saying it's about self-determination and all that, but scratch the surface for a few seconds and it's 'the bāstard English' this and 'Sassenach twāt' that.

    You know The Frog Chorus was a song for kids in a kids' film, right? And, as such, it was very good.

    I don't think Sir Paul ever thought he was writing the Eroica Symphony when he was knocking it together, tbf.
