Up just after six...
Working on Capital Models stuff and then breakfast...
...accompanied by a wee cat...
Anne was painting the bathroom and I was mucking about re music when a message came through to say our chum of some 20 years, Alex "Spike" Williams died last night...
Just shocked...
I'd been messaging him last week when he advised he was to have open heart surgery - an angiogram tomorrow and then "in for the slicing" as he put it...
Apparently, he'd had a good day, up in Stirling for new sunglasses then out in the afternoon with his wife Debbie and a couple of friends and, post that, rather than just heading home in the car, with Spike driving, they took a walk along Portobello promenade...
At 6:21 he collapsed and died...
Only "good" thing about it was he would not have known anything - one second there, the next gone...
Dreadful news and now just in a bit of a daze for the rest of the day...
And Anne still had to go to the Hearts game against Motherwell - which Spike should have been at too of course - biggest Jambo I knew and I know a lot of Jambos...
He was only just back from Norway, at what turned out to be their final European game of the season...
They let Spike down with a dreadful performance today...
On my way to my mum's I stopped off in Morningside, still in shock and merely popped into the Shelter Shop only to find these...
On to do my mum's shopping and put it away and let her peruse the receipt...
She always finds something or other which perplexes her...
Back home just before five...
Anne had continued her painting, or, re-painting, of the bathroom...
This evening some relaxation...
...and thinking...
Can't believe Spike has gone...
Lowlight of the Day : Spike, gone...
