Bit of a shock regarding his age even though his kidney disease was being monitored. A truly great player and a nice guy to boot.Play on Jonah. R.I.P.

'Respectable' cake baking pensioners set up fake vet firm to deal drugs
Retired pensioners set up drugs operation using a fake vets firm to get 400,000 diazepam tablets

A 'respectable' family ran a fake vets practice from their £530,000 home in order to sell 400,000 illegal drugs.

Pensioners Barbara and David Ray, who also ran a family business established in the 1930s, turned to drug dealing despite being well off.

 Judge Andrew Menary QC told Liverpool Crown Court: "They appeared to be a perfectly ordinary, respectable family. Mr Ray has a property business.

"Clearly Mrs Ray, apart from making jam and Victoria sponge, was overseeing the supply of massive quantities of diazepam."

Sky warning over 'cash for porn' letter

Sky has warned some of its customers they are likely to receive letters demanding cash for illegally downloaded pornographic films.

The letters, from the Golden Eye company, which has previously targeted O2 customers, threaten legal action.

While Sky stops short of telling users not to pay, it advises them to "carefully read the letter".

The practice of so-called speculative invoicing has been criticised by judges and solicitors in other cases.

The Citizens' Advice Bureau has written its own guidelines about speculative invoicing.
