He was actually only 65. What a character and he didn’t have to rely on swearing to get rating like Ramsay or should I say fucking Ramsay. I read this in the Irish Times about Floyd:
‘He proposed to his third wife, Shaunagh, after meeting her in the pub four hours beforehand. She was 23 years younger than him and the marriage, which lasted three years, ended in 1994 when he accused her of forgetting his birthday and threw her and the regulars out of his pub’.

I raised a glass in his memory last night when I heard the news – his TV progs were great, he was the first and best of the modern celebrity chefs.

I saw a docu about him on Channel 4 the night before he died and couldn’t believe how old he looked. Apparently he was only 68.
