Oh well, its just me then  :-\
Sorry if i've insulted anybody so much that they are having doubts about life itself.
It certainly wasn't my intention folks  :)

I suppose I could never get my head around all this anal internet grieving and R.I.P blubbing you get on forums for somebody who they never knew or knew very little about other then the crap / propaganda I read in the papers / internet or see on the TV.

As for the alcoholic bit .................. Personally, over the years i've drunk far too much, eaten far too much, smoked and done plenty of stupid things in my youth.
18 months ago, I got a lecture from my only son (as far as I know  :D)  along the lines of he didn't want me eating / drinking (I stopped smoking a few years ago) myself to death and if I gave a shit about him (my son) then i'd sort myself out  :-[ :-[
Well I stood there for a moment deciding whether to take his head off or burst into tears  :-X
I chose a 3rd option of being man enough to listen and learn from him  ;)

In the last 18 months, i've lost 25% of my body weight (I hit 20 stone  :-[)
I drink maybe once or at a push, twice a week now.
I eat 3 meals a day and nothing else and probably do 10 times the physical exercise that I did 2 years ago.

Do you know something, I feel like I did 25 years ago and its great  :)

Having kids is a ficking honour (not a route to benefits) and I do believe everybody should change there lifestyle if needed when you have kids.

Whether Charles Kennedy was still married to his wife of not, he had a young son and that should have been more then enough reason to sort himself out  :)

All in my opinion of course  :)

Just a word from me, in no way felt 'offended' by your comments, and wasn't taking exception to your opinion, and fully respect it  :)

In fact if we can say anything of celebrity, it's that someone could appear to be the cuddliest, kindest public figure, and be a truly horrible person; or a nasty piece of work to the populous but actually a decent person behind closed doors. As you rightly say, we didn't know him, know him.

One of my personal mottos is 'a bad man never died' - seriously, no-one ever has a bad word to say about anyone upon their passing, out of 'respect' or 'decency' etc... well fact is fact, and shouldn't be altered through 'PC-ness'.

Also personal congrats for shifting so much weight and clearly being a force for good in yours/others' lives. Again, no offence caused at my end,  :y


(PS Lagondanet's reply above is a little more succinct and to the point, and not a waffling ramble, like mine is  :))
