It was six years ago, and my mate, Pink, had just been told he was going to die. He accepted the news with a grace I can only marvel at, but he said he’d a list of things he’d still like to do. We sat in a pub one night and read it over. Eight things? Four months? Ok. Deal.

A Flock of Seagulls 'I Ran (So Far Away)' 1982. It topped the charts in Australia, no. 7 in New Zealand & no 9 in the U.S., it failed to make the top 40 in the UK. They are mentioned in 'Pulp Fiction' in a reference to singer Mike Score's back-combed haircut.

My new favourite genre of opinion piece is ‘old white guy with terrible views struggles to figure out why everyone is sick of his shit’

Piece by John Humphrys in one of the many shit right wing newspapers: “We used to respect our elders - whatever happened to that?”

Whiny enough in the headline, right? But then it goes on:

“Even an acknowledgment that we oldies might have picked up some useful stuff during our decades of experience wouldn’t go amiss.”
