    Sisters boyf has just come in from Dublin. On the massive TV screen they have in Connolly station there was a news cast that Pete Doherty was found dead. It's in fact his ex girlfriend. The last line particularly hits home.
    An ex-girlfriend of rocker Pete Doherty has been found dead from a suspected drug overdose.
    Robin Whitehead was found dead aged 27 at a flat in London, where Doherty used to live.
    She is part of the Goldsmith family and had previously made a film about Doherty, 30, who recently escaped prison for attending court in possession of drugs.
    A pal said: 'Robin had problems with heroin over the years but Pete and his circle sucked her in even further.
    'There is an attitude among that crowd that heroin is somehow cool. The only thing cool about it is the morgue you end up in.'

    "I have very limited sympathy for people who get messed up by heroin, because you'd think that by now they would have heard something bad about it."

    Dear Jesus,

    I know you have a lot on your plate and that quote-edit voodoo is technically outlawed in your teachings, but could you see your way to helping me out here.

    Yours with continuing love and respect,

    ~Stove

    Chicken dippers are bad for you, and so is heroin.

    A sauce consisting of Mayonaise, Ketchup, Drop of vinegar, squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of paprika. :cool:

    And yes I mixed them myself :pac:

    This guy's an even bigger waste of space than Sid Vicious. At least Sid Vicious was slightly attractive.

    Apparently.

    Can't beat a bit of the aul mayo.

    Doherty got fined the other day for having heroin on his person while in court for a drink/drive related hearing.....you couldn't make it up. You don't have to.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    People die of heroin overdoses all the time. Someone in my area does every few weeks, why is this one in the news? Pete Doherty isn't even high profile, never mind his ex girlfriend
