Well. So. As I’ve been saying forever now – certain people are only too happy to stalk and steal from here.

I have been badgered for days to watch this. OK. Watched. I know a little about the history of John and Graham’s lives together. It was a rollercoaster. But only someone who Truly Loved his friend would have the Balls to do THIS. Better by far that you should forget and smile…?
