Alan Longmuir has taken ill on holiday
If he’s in a Mexican hospital then he doesn’t have long to live.
Get out of there, dude, and get to the USA.
Are they sure he wasn’t poisoned? It’s happened to many tourists in Cancun.
“Bay City Rollers legend”
Ok, let’s not get carried away here.
If you’ve been told once, you’ve been told a thousand times, don’t drink the water!
So if the thugs don’t get you, the food and water will (and the hospitals if you get ill). And Cancun is one of the few places in Mexico that is still considered a ‘tourist’ destination....
Back in the day Mexico was my FAVORITE place to vacation. Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, Acapulco, Cozumel, Playa De Carmen, Los Cabos, Tulum...and in the early 80’s I lived 2 minutes from Tijuana in Imperial Beach, CA.
I will NEVER set foot in that country, again.
Prayers up for a Bay City Roller. A parody of a band before the word ‘parody’ was coined. ;)
BUT those of us of a ‘certain age’ had their album, cassette or 8-Track for sure! ;)
Prayers for him.
I remember watching roller derby on TV, but I thought it was the Bay City Bombers.
I know it wasn’t their song but when he asked to go to the hospital did he say “come on Eileen”?
Beatles, everybody can name John, Paul, Ringo and George.
Rolling Stones, almost everybody can rattle off at least Mick, Keith and Charlie.
But I could never name a Bay City Roller ever.
That said, too bad about this guy, whose name I never heard of before (but I knew the Bay City Rollers since I was 13).

“...a virus that is attacking his vital organs. “
You never hear about viruses that attack non-vital organs.
“You’ve got a virus, but it’s only attacking your vestigial third-eye. Nothing to worry about.”
Oh how I remember these guys back in the day when they would feel the pages of Teen Beat magazine.
Unlike many girls, I never had a crush on any of them, (”Hutch” from Starsky & Hutch got my affections.)
I feel sorry for this poor soul if he’s being treated for an illness in Mexico.
He “has been taken seriously Ill whilst holidaying in Mexico.”
Sorry to break it to him, but it is not 1980 anymore, when Mexico was fun, gas was $1.19, and Sally Field won best actress. Today Mexico is a narco state run by unethical drug dealers.
