You know whenever I see cases like these, the first thing the comes to mind is a quote my gran would tell us often. "If you ever become rich or successful, whatever you do, never let it get into your head." When my uncle became a relatively successful person, he remembered his mother's advice and as a result he's not only still successful but is also level headed and doesn't make rash decisions. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either that or the Sally Webster next door is jealous that she only has a sauna with no spa or pool. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth in Asia 1,086 Posted July 4, 2023 I'm pretty sure Captain Tom would have been absolutely fine with his daughter doing her best to maximize funds from this whole thing. I mean look how the estate of Marvin Gaye and others carry on, devoting their lives to squeezing as much cash as possible from the work of their famous relative. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,023 Posted September 7, 2023 My opinion of the whole gang of shysters from the late Cap'n down has been consistent from the start of his trip around his fucking garden. Self interested twats the lot of them.

Something about what unites us rather than what divides us, oft quoted by that other twat Brendan Cox. I think we often get tetchy on here, but I'm getting too old for even being bothered with that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lilham 752 Posted October 12, 2023 "Look for the helpers" is more like "look for the grifters." This is all so very cynical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoverAndOut 4,745 Posted October 24, 2023 They really are bunch of odious shysters aren't they? It's been obvious since the earliest days of the pandemic that they were in it for as much fame and money as they could as quickly as they could. Young PR agent hired by Ingram-Moores to draft original press release and manage his Twitter feed cut out by family when she was nominated for awards for her work and in Captain Tom's autobiography it is claimed both the press release and the Twitter feed where due to quick thinking by...you guessed it...Hannah Ingram-Moore. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
