# subject line needed for the newsletter
maybe something blockbusters that isn't 'I'll have a R.I.P please Bob' as that's already all over twitter. Or anything really. As long as it's your joke. Not nicked.

# sad news
I remember thinking how cruel the design of the Blockbusters quiz book covers were, and how the designer got away with the four letters running down the right side of Bob's hexagon:

2 things about Holness:

1. he refused to sit with the contestants in the canteen, whereas Rory McGrath sat and Lee Hurst sat with us for ages.

2. he did nothing but stare at the girls contestant's boobs.

That is all.

# Arrgh
I don't do Twitter or facebook or stuff like that. So after seeing the news on the BBC website came straight here believing I was sooo clever thinking of "I'll have an R.I.P please Bob" all on my own. I guess I should have known really.

Glad he died "P"sfully and may he rest in "P"s.
