Have I got news for you?

Humphrey Lyttelton

1921-2008

So you're dead Humph.

I saw you underneath

Amy Whitehouse overnight in jail.

No juicy knighthood dinner.

You had the antidote for that

Swanee Whistle panel game of

even though you had Eton.

But no tears eh - they bunged you a

Lifetime Achievement Award at the Post Office British Jazz Awards

for swinging your ass off.

Getting to Mornington Crescent

was not the point was it -

it was the how.

That's what you gave our clueless time

the news about.

So, thanks Humph.
