Very sad news, I enjoyed his writing.

RIP AA Gill.

A charismatic man, packed a lot in but too young to leave.

RIP A A Gill

Yes mamya 62 is no age nowadays. It says in my link that the Sunday Times will be printing his last article tomorrow where he writes about coming to terms with his cancer. It would be nice if someone who has access to The Times could post it in the morning.

Actually I thought he was a really nasty person, but having said that, I'm sorry he died so 'young' and so suddenly.

He was a great writer - very sharp and never ever boring. I get the Sunday Times, so will try to post his final article tomorrow

Thanks Clovejo. I'll look forward to reading it.

Here is a link to AA Gill's final article. Hope it works. If not, I'll try to copy and paste the whole piece in the morning.

Thanks CJ for the article. It came up OK and I started to read it but after a couple of seconds a blocker came up asking me to sign up. I don't think I want to do that but I have to nip to Waitrose soon so I'll get a copy myself if they haven't all gone. Thank you again.
