This morning I listened to some of the repeated 'highlights' from Victoria Darbishire's R5live programme ; Heather Mills McCartney again and , yes , anyone stigmatised by tabloid newspapers will get anonymous 'death threats' , from one or two cowardly and  inadequate individuals , who'd be far too incompetent to carry that out even if they did dare to try to .
She amusingly referred to listeners texting / emailing critical comments about  her as " beatle nuts " , and made a comment , obviously referring to McCartney , about "someone who recorded a song for two seconds" ,  which would seem to prove the veracity of the notion that , having married the 'living legend' McCartney , the living embodiment of the legacy of the phenomenal Beatles , she just did'nt 'get' The Beatles at all .
It still seems to me that he married her out of loneliness and (amputee fetish ?) lust ,  that she married him  out of ambitious greed , and that they have little 'in common' ,  though of course I  could be  wrong .

Then  , again the parents of Amy Winehouse and her husband (separately)   ;   I  have a 'soft spot' for 'damsels in distress' but  am fed up with hearing about  Amy Winehouse not wanting to help herself , which feels  sad and frustrating even for me and must be truly awful for those who know and love  her , or anyone with a similar addiction problem who does'nt want to get better badly enough .

I'm glad my Mum persuaded me to go for a walk with her this morning ; sunny and mild and lots of adults , children and dogs on the beach .
