LIKE the rest of the media world, I'm today penning this completely predictable piece marking 10 years since Diana died.
I'm only doing it incase you've lived under the Irish Sea for the past decade and didn't realise where she'd gone.
Actually, like Elvis Presley, she's probably now more famous dead than alive and her followers continue to mourn her as if it were yesterday.
Now, far be it from me to be a party pooper, I'm really getting Diana fatigue.
Constant newspaper headlines, conspiracy theories, TV interviews of people blubbering about someone they never knew... it's all too much. Yes, she was a star in her lifetime but I think the incessant harking back does nothing but diminsh her legacy.
So I hope after this landmark occasion passed that everyone will just let her Rest In Peace... something her boys want very much.

She enlivened the Royal Family's gene pool and then did the decent thing and died young so as not to cause further emabarrassment. I remember being woken up on a Sunday morning by my mum to tell me she was 'gone'. When I failed to weep into my pillow I was branded heartless. That may be true but it's purely coincidental.
