When I go...

which I hope will be years from now, but I'll probably still be a DU'er, please don't announce it by "Raven has passed" or "Raven is dead" just say "We are having a hooley for Raven." Please just file this away when the time comes.

I want a hooley too! I love a good hooley I have never actually been to a real hooley to celebrate the passing of a good soul but have been to several hoolies done by an Irish Band I know.

Raven you shall have your hooley, lets hope it is a long time from today.
