Great shame she was very talented as a musician  a song writer an illustrator and a cartoonist.  She had wonderful and interesting life story, never married, but had lots of stars as boyfriends, including James Coburn and Sean Connery who all fell under her spell.

She used to own an outdoor pursuit shop in Betws-y-coed called Rock Bottom (which, for those of you who didn't know, was the title of her entry to the Eurovision Song Contest in 1977 with Mike Moran )

No loss musically, come on when did she last have a hit, and a indeed a hit of any distinction? And I can remember her and her right wing views lauding on Thatcher in the 80s.  Nasty would be the way I would describe her.

UBT my mother used to say to me "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all"!

I didn't know the woman personally, but I always thought she was beautiful, with all that long blonde hair, and I even practised putting on a beauty spot with an eye pencil, to look like her. R.I.P.

My Mother always told me "Do not speak ill of the dead"
Lynsey was  talented and wrote a lot of music for other people and also was so good at illustrating albums when she first went to work, she made enough money to buy her own flat. She also won two Ivor Novello Awards.  Considering she had a very traumatic childhood, she was physically abused by her Father. She really did well with her career.  Rest in Peace Lynsey.
