gosh.

There's no 'news' as such right now but AP are reporting that Lynn Redgrave has died.

Well, damn. She was always my favorite Redgrave.

Breast cancer, apparently, they've just expanded the report. She was only 67.

Oh gosh, how awful.

Wasn't she in a relationship with Brandon Maggart? Or at least good friends with him?

She was at one time, I don't think they were still together though as I heard Garett's current girlfriend is the daughter of Brandon's (which still makes me go 'ew' a little bit. ;o))

Dreadful, isn't it? She was only 67 and Corin's only been gone a few weeks.

How are you, lovey? I just got in from yet more gardening, tis hammering down with hail, here.

I am confused, the daughter of Brandon's what? Are they related in some way?

It is sad indeed :-(

I am fine, a wee bit stressed as kids are home and I'm not feeling ready to face the week. I am going to cook a big roast to see if it settles me - it usually makes me feel cozy and homely :-). Fun fact - son number one is on his laptop IMing with his girlfriend... ha ha! Oh, so sweet, his first love ;-)

It's bloody freezing here. I've had the back door open all afternoon whist I've been getting rid of rubbish, but I am about to shut it because I am shivering!

Brandon's girlfriend. :-) I could be wrong, that's what I heard.

You're not wrong, it is indeed perishing, we've put the heating back on and I've had to bring my seedlings in to litter the kitchen.

And yay for puppy love! I'm toasting the young lothario with warm, spiced ribena, as befits the current climate.

That is sad and she was so young, too :-(

I thought of the Maggart connection but I wasn't sure if they were still together. Garett knew her though so I suppose this is a sad time for his fmaily, too.

Why, that's not long after Corin, is it? Rough on Vanessa as the survivor.

Must admit I loathed Georgy Girl, whose message I took to be "never mind if you're a plain girl, obviously you can't expect to end up with a fanciable young man, but you can have an old codger and someone else's child, which is all you're really entitled to by way of happiness." Dammit, they could have given her a career instead!

And comparatively young, too. What a pity.

Made me really sad, too . . . I liked her especially in the old US TV version of House Calls :)
