Most likely.
And yet and yet I am glad I saw that. RPJ's eulogy is dry and sad, he probably knew Rick as well as anyone in the world, with a child's eye view as well as his adult relationships. There is no sentiment there. And I see they had Kippy's If ... corny, and the bit about being a man my son is seriously weird if you know anything about young Kipling's fate, and yet it does hit a nail on the head, which is why people go on and on reading it. And I looked up the Brian Patten poem. Great poet Mr Patten, he wrote a wonderful poem about a rocking horse, many years ago. Rick will live as long as we (and Charlie Brown) will miss him.

According to a FB post, Jackie Lynton has asked the seller to sell it. Not sure I believe that. I don't get that, what would it be to him that someone should sell it? Unless he (or someone) wanted it published ... like I said, I am glad I saw it. I have no wish to buy it, or have one, but I am glad I knew what was read for Rick. |

Just went on ebay to complain and it seems the auction has ended with 0 bids, so looks like something has been done about it.

Probably one of the Facebook nutjobs who were insisting it was their god given right to go to his funeral.
