Re: RIP Dame Vera Lynn
RIP.
Something I didn't know until today - she appeared in an anti-heroin concert with Hawkwind at Crystal Palace in 1985.
Quote:
The Anti-heroin Campaign.
8-25-85
Crystal Palace Bowl
Vera Lynn
Hawkwind.
Spear Of Destiny .
Armory Show
The Enid
Dr and the Medics
The March Violets
Comsat Angels
Balaam and The Angel
Eddy Armani
The late inclusion to the bill was was none other than WW 2 legend Dame Vera Lynn , who presumably wanted to lend her voice to the anti heroin message, the Dame lead the audience in a rendition of ' Old Lang Syne as a finale to the concert, accompanied by the assembled players .

She will be missed. Disgusted at some of the tweets I saw this afternoon about her death.

How on Earth could anyone say anything unkind about such a nice woman who gave hope and entertainment at such an awful time? Were they saying they were pleased about her death or something??
May God bless her as she continues her journey x

No, saying that she chose to die because of all the black lives matters stuff. Absolute balls. She was 103, she had a bloody good innings
