I've dealt with losing close ones before, and I've been around friends that have lost friends at a young age. I think it's important to think about - not necessarily death, but about life and think about where you're going and how you want to be remembered and the legacy you want to leave.

Soul of the age! The applause, delight, the wonder of our stage!

Then we'd return to Ruslip in West London... Done a fair bit of traveling really.
