R.I.P Poly Styrene

Some of you will be scratching your head and saying who? but those of my generation and older will remember her as the lead singer of Punk Band X-Ray Specs

Apparently she has been ill with breast cancer

RIP( if true)

I remember playing with my train set on Christmas day, whilst my sister played Germ Free Adolescent again, and again, again.

I was never into punk but......

Breast cancer is a horrible way to go and at such a relatively young age too. So sad.

RIP Poly
