I loved Fay Weldons work - her books, plays . I didn’t know she wrote for upstairs, downstairs. That series is a classic. One of the greats. Fay Weldon was one of our greats. RIP.
I’ve just been talking to my husband about Vialli’s death.
He was relatively young , healthy , stayed very very fit for years and also wealthy enough to buy any medication or access trials for treatment yet he still died before 60.
I’m going to bin off dry January , eat the biscuits butter and bacon and enjoy it all while I can.
Lots of thoughts to everyone who’s lost a loved one
Back in the 90s, my friend worked as a nanny for a couple who had Chelsea season tickets. When they were out of town they'd give them to her to use so I ended up in Stamford Bridge 2 or 3 times. Villi was in Chelsea then. So it's one of those famous deaths that's got me.
I don’t know why Vialli’s death has effected me so much today as I’m not a fan of any of his teams but he was one of the first footballers I knew about a lot when I was first getting into football when I was young and could still impress/surprise my husband by randomly knowing answers relating to him on Question of Sport etc.
I read his book last year and enjoyed that too and I just feel sad.
Pancreatic cancer is a cunt. A friend of mine lost her dad to it at a similar age to Vialli, and he went from feeling a bit ill for a while to dying within weeks. It's not something I'd wish on anyone.

It's amazing that Vialli survived it initially and then it returned. Five years he had suffered with it for. Well, five years going through treatment, getting the all clear etc.
Wasn't that Salman Rushdie? I'll have to look it up.
Right, I've looked it up. You're correct, she was the one. Rushdiewas responsible for "Naughty but nice."
