UK internet pioneer Cliff Stanford has died
British internet pioneer Cliff Stanford, founder of Demon Internet, died last week.
Stanford also set up Redbus Investments, which put money into a number of projects including co-location and data centre facilities (Redbus Interhouse) and an early online film service (Redbus Films), and was a well-known chess enthusiast and supporter of the sport. He was also involved in the London Internet Exchange, and the Internet Watch Foundation.

The ball did not go in a straight line until it hit the ground and spun to the off stump - it started out straight and then about halfway it started to curve outwards beyond the leg stump before hitting the ground and then changing direction. @anon87143080’s video shows this much better.
Bookman!

Not exactly a celebrity, but seems to have been an all-around good guy.
Haven’t had one of their chocolate covered donuts since the heart attack.
Gonna have to get one in his memory.
