im sure he had his own demons to deal with.

His own Dad passed away in October this year back in Australia (incidently of cancer) and made me realise that people live there lives the way they want to and at the end of the day Callum has just lost his Dad.

who are we to judge someone for living their life any way they want to...... if someone does not do things the way we want is that wrong?.....I think not
George Best had his life and you got yours....he lived it hard and fast and I recon he enjoyed it in the most part

He left when i was 4 years old and never came back to see me except once when i was 11 years old and he was so pissed he forgot my name.
Living with an alcoholic is living with a liar, cheat and a let down !!!
