Thanks SD... how about lets save people a click...
I, for one, would like to pat Keith on the back for cutting the crap and saying he is sorry.... and I applaud Mick for accepting... and now we can all move on. I know doing this is harder than it looks/sounds/seems but this is what real men do when the greater good is at stake. Cheers to the Glimmer twins

It was a feud that threatened to end a 50-year friendship – and break up the world’s greatest rock band.
But last night Sir Mick Jagger and Keith Richards revealed they have kissed and made up – and are looking forward to getting back together for a Rolling Stones reunion tour.
The fiery rockers finally settled their differences during a heart-to-heart meeting in New York.
The row began after Keith made a series of attacks on Sir Mick, 68, in his tell-all 2010 autobiography, Life.
It included a claim that the superstar singer had a “tiny todger”.
But now the pair, who met at Dartford railway station in Kent as teenagers have agreed that life’s too short to let the rift continue.
Sir Mick said last night: “Looking back at any career you are bound to recall both the highs and the lows.
"In the 1980s, for instance, Keith and I were not communicating very well.
“I got very involved with the business side of the Stones, mainly because I felt no one else was interested.
" But it’s plain now from the book that Keith felt excluded, which is a pity.
“Time, I reckon, to move on.’’
Keith, also 68, added: “Mick’s right. He and I have had conversations over the last year of a kind we have not had for an extremely long time and that has been incredibly important to me.
“As far as the book goes, it was my story and it was very raw, as I meant it to be.
“But I know that some parts of it, and some of the publicity, really offended Mick and I regret that.
“What some of our detractors forget is that although we look like old codgers living an ocean apart we are still at bottom the boys on platform 3 at Dartford station.’’
Mick gently corrected him: “Er... actually, Keith, it was platform 1.’’
In his best-selling autobiography, Keith, accused Mick of being “unbearable” and claimed they had not even shared a dressing room for 20 years.
He also triggered the “Todgergate” row – which led to Sir Elton John and Pete Townshend leaping to Sir Mick’s defence, insisting he had much to be proud of in the trouser department.
The pair’s bury-the-hatchet session now virtually ensures a 50th anniversary tour
Original bass player Bill Wyman, who quit in 1992, was involved in secret jamming sessions in London last December.
Keith revealed: “On the third day, Mick turned up, which was a real joy – I set it up really as a magnet, you know.”
Sir Mick added: “It went very well. We played a lot of blues and out takes of Some Girls and things like that.”
The duo are even talking about studio sessions, starting as early as next month. “I’ve got plenty in the locker here, but it’s not on tape,” said Keith.
“We’ll just get the boys back together again then and maybe cut a side.”
Both say they will be living in New York “for a while”. Keith added: “We’re planning to get things going... again.”
But they insist the Stones’ “real” Golden Jubilee won’t be until 2013.
Keith explained that drummer Charlie Watts, 70, didn’t join the band until 1963.
He said: “We look upon 2012 as 50 years since the inception, but 50 years since the birth is actually next year.”
The Stones’ last album Shine A Light was released in April 2008. Their last tour, A Bigger Bang was in 2005-2007.
The band have collaborated with the Mirror to produce a photo-book, Rolling Stones: 50.
They are also planning a documentary including previously unseen footage.
