Sad

[moonraker558]

With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at this moment in time, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person which almost went unnoticed.
Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote the Hokey Cokey song died peacefully aged 93.
The most traumatic part for his family was putting him in his coffin.Everything was fine until they tried to put his left leg in, that's when the trouble started.

Ruddy 'eck, Moonie! That's an old one! Google finds that story going back at least as far as 2004 but it turned up several times on The News Quiz, on BBC Radio 4, about thirty years ago!

What's woorying, Moonie, is that those of us who're approaching 70 ARE 'the young ones' on AB!
