Well if Billie Whitelaw can't get a death file statement there's not much hope for Jane is there ?
R I P Jane your pictures reflect your gift and talent in your field of work it's such a shame the same couldn't be said about the latest budget-clumsy-snapper posting photos of our man posing in front of a murdered Nordic spruce tree with a meat is murder message beneath it.
That photo says "meat is murder but it's cool to kill trees and holly bushes, it's Christmas, innit ! "
