Better than being dead

The Mighty R just chuckled evilly and emailed me this:

Teen's dying wish

Much more importantly, I read a wonderful piece about the inimitable Sir John Mortimer in the Times from last week – A Day in the Life

"Even when you've lived a long time, you don't feel much older than 11 inside. It's just that the bits fall off, which is ghastly but, on the whole, very much better than being dead."
