Re: how did Syd Barret die

That's not a nice way to talk about Syd & froot loops & all.

He told me he visited Dave under some stairs he was living in.
He wanted to give him a bike, but he borrowed it....

I think I understood the question, and my understanding of it was, that the first part of the question was aimed at Aneurysm?
Aneurysm had jokingly said 'Improper grammer killed him' in reply to the question posed by Alex68 which said ' doctor doctor how did syd die !?!'

I think that Sir Zidan lost the humour somewhere along the line?

In reply to the 2nd part of Sir Zidan's question 'R u Doctor?' which I think was meant to be 'Are you a doctor?' I replied ' I'm the countries leading proctologist'.... but it could also have been answered by Anuerysms reply as well.

I hope this clears up the matter.
