Hello All

[Johnny Marr]

Ray is brilliant, his knighthood wasn't that great a shock.

I'm being a bit harsh on Ken Dodd, as he was a very popular comedian who
was the best in the business at his type of humour (which isn't quite too
my taste, but perfectly fine in itself) - he's just the most unlikely of
the latest round of knight garters.
