I remember him saying that at the time and thinking that it was one of those one liners that would (hopefully) go down in history.  :(

61's no age  - sad loss for his family, by all accounts an unflashy, proper, solid journalist as opposed to a lot of todays news reporters - wannabe celebs who'd rather be dancing on ice in the jungle than actually doing the real work  :(

Very sad news indeed.

Very sad news, the guy certainly lived his life to the full, but 61 is hardly a fair crack of the whip! :(

Sad.  Fella was a straight blade, as I recall.  Shame to hear of his demise....
