    Yvon DuHamel dies

    Sadly, another legend shuffles off this mortal coil. One of the bravest/maddest of his generation.

    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.

    I think that was Raymond Roche. Don't remember Yvon DuHamel ever coming here.
