RIP To Those Departed

Lamont Dozier, one third of Motown's phenomenal writing trio of Holland-Dozier-Holland, has passed aged 81. Legend is a term that is bandied about too easily these days, but Lamont rightly earns the accolade. Think of a Motown track, and odds are he wrote it, a true great. Thank you for the music. RIP

And not just Motown.
He also wrote for the likes of Phil Collins, Carly Simon and Mick Hucknall to name just a few.
RIP.

And apparently rather amusing, along with being a club chucker . Great golfer.

Was he. Didn’t know either of those facts. It was a golden era for golf.
Rory did the best club chuck ever. 150 yards into a lake. Proper job, not that I applaud it but it was funny.

Funniest thing I've heard oncourse was Monty berating Harrington for taking an age to decide what to do at the belfry. Monty was not mincing his words ,classic stuff.

Rab Wardell, 36yo Scottish mountain biking champion, less than 48hrs after winning the championship dies in bed next to his wife . Cardiac arrest. He was joking on tv only last night about winning despite 3 punctures. Truly shocking.

Only just noticed this Mick. You’re a golf fan I think. You have some knowledge about the game obviously.
Monty was a miserable bugger. I’d like to have heard that conversation!
When he nearly won the US Open (USPGA?) his caddie clearly said 7 iron middle of the green don’t mess with the pin....
I didn’t give a s**t as I’d backed Geoff Ogilvy
