Odd that you should mention Tainted Blood today, and I said I knew someone who died because of it. I've just been reminded that it was on this day in 1988 that he died.
I'm feeling a bit glum now.

Odd that you should mention Tainted Blood today, and I said I knew someone who died because of it. I've just been reminded that it was on this day in 1988 that he died. I'm feeling a bit glum now. it's been major in the news lately, sorry for your loss mate. He was one of the ones that went around the same time my friends started dropping like flies, I've got one friend left from those years who got it and somehow (feck knows how) survived, although ironically, he now reckons hepatitis C will kill him because his liver is forked. But anyway… It's a lot fecking longer than we expected him to live… It's a lot fecking longer than he expected to live I just wish all the feckers who did this (and the feckers who sanctioned it) would be held accountable… But of course they won't be. The best that can be hope for is money for those who survived to this day, and maybe some compensation for their families. Although to be honest how much is a life worth? This killed indiscriminately, thick, brainy, poor, rich, dull, charismatic… fecking disease didn't care. Still, we are here to remember them and that's the only afterlife any of us are gonna get. play music, drink to them (tea obviously!), remember them well… They deserve it |
