Everything I write is merely my personal opinion - it's not fact unless
I claim it to be, and it's not verified unless I quote a source for it.

The way he and his wife died within 24 hours of each other is very touching.

They give the impression that she died in her sleep of old age after her
last phone call to her husband.

Well we agree they don't say explicitly, but they do imply that it was "just
death" or old age rather than illness, so they *did* say, actually, just not
directly. They left it to the reader to understand that she "went to sleep
and never woke up" means she died peacefully in her sleep of old age. She's
still dead as a mackerel, though, no matter how you put it.

This is her, I think:
She appeared in a large number of British films that nobody has ever
heard of, up until 1948. I am guessing that she got married to TS
round about that time, and in common with many women then would have
given up work to be a wife. She was born about the same year as my
mother (who similarly married soon after the war in 1947).

Yes, I want circular eggs, not conversations, with rectangular bacon and
toast.
