Meanwhile….
Karl Sheils had one of the best send offs I've ever seen. Very moving. Great turn out from the film and theatre community's. Didn't know Karl very well but had great craic with him on more than a few occasions. An empathetic soul. My performance tonight is for you Karl. R.I.P https://t.co/2Ijn51z4Ms

How did he die
Was wondering too. Usually when there is a lot of media coverage about the death of a public figure at a young age, the cause is stated. When it is not, people speculate in all different directions which is unfair to deceased and family.
He wasn´t young, was he not 49?
Them’s fighting words Tim.
Saw him a year ago around the north inner city. I think “unkempt” would be the kindest description, but today is his day, he’s obviously a much loved man and artist. RIP.
how about “unnecessary”?
I believe he died in his sleep. RIP.
Saw a few minutes of Fair City last night, he couldn’t stand straight and seemed to be in a lot of pain.
I must try working a legs 11 skirt and beige high heels at my next funeral attendance.
It’s so- stylish.
you’d be dragging your scrotum across the tarmac, soq
LOL! – on a side note, I know skinny jeans on guys is the current fashion but going on the images above does it really work?
