VSBfromH 74 Posted November 1, 2006 Silas Simmons, aged 111 I think there was another fairly recent death mentioned in the "Near Misses" thread, but this chap certainly deserves a mention due to his age. Found it: John "Buck" O'Neil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, I did do a search, but as the name hadn't been included in the post it did not find it so I assumed I had a scoop. I will make it up to you when I come over to Canada. Is there anything I can bring from the UK as a token gift? Marmite? Jaffa Cakes? Terry Wogan (please, please take him!)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the "best of Britain," I already bought a copy of "The Thin Blue Line" on DVD, I've done my part. Keep yer Terry Wogan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
