Saturday Scratch #52


It's been a while since the last edition of Saturday Scratch and this one comes bearing some bad news. A couple of days ago, part of Lee Perry's Swiss home was destroyed by fire. Thankfully no-one was hurt in the incident and, clearly distraught, Perry himself took to Facebook to explain what happened.

Awful news. We wish you the best and send good vibes your way Scratch.

Poor Lee. He does look genuinely gutted, as you would be. I hope it doesn't stop him working and things can be somewhat restored.

That's terrible news. Poor old Scratch. Didn't he set fire to the Black Ark? What a kick in the teeth. Hope he gets back on track.

Awful news indeed. As TheRobster said, I hope this won't stop him from keeping on doing his great work.
