    My parents had that album as my Dad worked at the Valley Club and he gets a mention on it.

    Grotbags scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. Along with Bagpuss (apparently had me screaming when I was a nipper) my childhood must have been one big trial run for a life of terrifying football on show at The Valley.

    It does make me feel old when people from my childhood go. RIP.

    It was when he yawned! Sounds too much like a growl for my liking.

    They might play Knocking on Heaven's Door at the funeral, would be quite apt!

    Saw her at Butlins years ago and I can say she was the best live act I have ever seen. She had the crowd rolling around in laughter within minutes and that continued until she walked off the stage
