Strange

I heard some news yesterday about a guy I was at primary school with who has recently died from alcoholism. It is odd, but I have never thought about Robert since long before I left school but hearing the news brings a reminder in some way of the finality to things. It is not my loss and I am not sad, the news just comes into my thoughts through the day. He was 42 and it all really seems such a futile waste.

On a lighter note here is a great wee piece of music I heard today.
