Rest in Peace, Mark

I have just been listening to the radio and the tv presenter of SMART has died, Mark Speight. What a tragic thing to happen. I used to watch Smart quite often when I was younger and then began watching Smarteenies when my nephew was born.

He always seemed a fun and caring big brother sort of person. Of course being a children's tv presenter relies on you being overly happy to a fake extent but he did seem a nice person.

It's just sad how he probably felt like there was no hope left when he did this. I don't know what's worse: dying when you were happily bopping along living, or commiting suicide when you were filled with nothing but suffocating despair.
