No more Bunga-bunga....

Silvio Berlusconi, former Italian PM, dies at 86

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-65877241

I know he was a wrong 'un, but how many politicians come out with a quote such as, “When asked if they would like to have sex with me, 30% of women said, ‘Yes’, while the other 70% replied, ‘What, again?’”

Utter wrong 'un....

Left a fair old literary legacy though - The Border Trilogy is a set of American classics, beautifully written and really conjure up a sense of time and place. He may be gone but they'll be in print in 100 years time (if we still have printed books!).

I have the Border Trilogy on my bookshelf (I don't keep many novels on there). He was one of my favourite authors and it seems he had a couple of books published towards the end of last year so I'll have to look them up next time I'm in UK as I won't be able to get them here.

He's one of those actors that i've seen in a lot of things without knowing his name! Just looked him up on IMDB and he's been making (a lot of) films since 1975.

RIP fellow motorcyclist Dude.

She used to do scheduled meets for homeless people needing representation. Top lady in her commitment to all her constituents. And an Oscar winner!
