Default Bill Baker RIP

very sa dto report the death of Bill Baker at the age of 53. He was a very
big man in many ways and no doubt a factor in his early demise.

used to write the list for Reid wines back in the 80's, very witty.

had a huge go at RP, which RP took to be offensive (never!)

A loss of one of wines characters.

You know you've had a good night
when you wake up
and someone's outlining you in chalk.
