Local Fish and Chip shop legend. Ken.

(from @thankcodforkens Instagram)


"The Legend, the Original Ken, My Dad tragically passed away on Saturday 13th of July, We are devastated beyond words, he was the kindest caring loving gentleman one could ask for and an amazing Dad & best friend, he opened Ken’s fish bar in 1984 & devoted all this time and energy there up until his last breath he was still in his favourite place. known my many as “father Ken” due to his many years of service in his adopted community of Dulwich which he loved. I will do my best to keep his Legacy as great as he created it but also know how difficult my challenges are ahead of me with out having my best friend, my teacher, my dad by my side. He will be missed by many 💔💔 Love you dad, rest in peace 💔💔"

I hadn't heard of Jack Karlson until today, although the Australians amongst us probably will. Scroll down to watch the video - I needed a lovely gurgle today amidst all this horrible news :

'Jack Karlson, who shot to fame after ‘succulent Chinese meal’ arrest, dies aged 82

Karlson immortalised the phrase ‘this is democracy manifest’ in what has been described as Australia’s pre-eminent meme'

Quincy Jones

Born March 14, 1933, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.

Died November 3, 2024 (aged 91), Los Angeles, California, U.S.

Simply a musical legend of his time who's contribution to RnB, Soul and jazz music should never be under estimated. 

Record producer, songwriter, composer, arranger, and film and television producer.

He worked with many of the soul and jazz legends himself, and he has a back catalogue of material I urge you to listen to and enjoy.

He will be sadly missed.

      Gosh, a mere 61 years since "It's my party".  I didn't know at the time that it was QJ's first production.  I remember it like last week and probably have him to thank, for beating Spector to it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_My_Party

      Electrician recommendation: Electrical Initiative Ltd

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Used Leon for the first time today as our usual electrician was out of London. neighbour gave us his details as we lost all power in the lower part of our house. Fortunately we had a separate circuit for the first floor so could boil up a kettle. Leon when rang advised he could come this afternoon, turned up and checked every thing and got power back on and to call him back if we had any more problems. Reasonable rate considering it was an emergency call out. Nice chap, very helpful, would recommend.
