Jason Manford on Gary Barlow

[Future17]

Just wanted to share Jason Manford's blog from yesterday, posted after people criticised Gary Barlow for peforming at the closing ceremony of the Olympics after he death of his child. Heartfelt and well written. Perhaps contains a little something to think about for all of us who can be quick to criticise others.

Very good indeed. Going to start following him - i like the way he writes and what he's got to say.

Mind you, that's probably the only reason he wrote such an insightful and stirring blog post...to get more followers. (joking).

Seen Manford a few times and have a huge amount of time for him. He was a dickhead over the flirting stuff but overall, he's one of life's good guys. He's spot on with what he says about Gary Barlow. I'm surprised at him but the last bit of his post is the most moving thing I've read in a while.

Theres a lot of people in the world who really seem.to struggle with empathy for some reason.
