Andrew Jennings<p>vale Ozzy Osbourne. When us old people read of the demise of our contemporaries we tell ourselves "well he did do a lot of drugs and abuse his body".

This randomness is one of the hardest things to come to grips with. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/aging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aging</span></a></p>
