Where were you when you heard that Nelson Mandela had died?

I was watching Mrs Browns Boys and it got interrupted. I am still waiting for it to come back on.

OMG, I didn’t know. Sad.

@Pachyderm_In_The_Room He is being eulogised on the news channels.

and none news channels!

I was on Fluther at 5.08 PM EST.

Huh.

My daughter told me, she’d seen all the hoo-hah on Facebook.
I shall miss him, his voice made me giggle like a prom queen.

Oops, never said where I was, I was on here awaiting the inevitable question relating to his demise & here it is.

@ucme The minute my programme got interrupted (and I’m still waiting for it to come back on, probably won’t now) I came on here and wondered how long it would take someone.. Only had to press refresh twice!

Umm.. 1 minute ago. Sitting at my desk at work.

Right here, just now.

@Lorna Mrs Brown’s Boys is hilarious by the way, “ya feckin eejit”

@ucme Yes, it was a Christmas episode. Was really funny. Turned the tv off now and will probably head to bed.

@Lorna Okay, best not to dwell on comedy shows on this thread I guess, nighty night :)

A few moments ago. On a hillside plantation a few miles north of Vieux Fort, St. Lucia, Lesser Antilles. Amazing guy.

I saw it on my facebook news feed. I was sitting in my family room.

Driving to work.

On my behind cruising Facebook

In my living room on the phone to my best friend with the TV on mute when the “Breaking News” headline flashed up.

Facebook.

At work, heard it on the radio. :(

I don’t know…..I did not know he was dead until right now

Just now? Are you serious?

^ Yes, dead serious. I have not watched the news, or read a paper in weeks. I have not even read Time or Newsweek muchless seen the front page of one in ages.

That’s not a bad thing, @Hypocrisy_Central. But did you know Martin Luther King got shot though?

That I did hear of, and it wasn’t a MOB hit either~ ;-D

LOLL! Just making sure you’re all caught up on current events.
