Cobain letter to Love to be auctioned
Monday 15 November 2004
The letter, written in a Sheffield hotel room in 1991 when Nirvana were performing a British tour, is to go under the hammer as part of a sale of rock memorabilia.
Cobain's letter, entitled 'Courtney Love Breakfast Fax', is written in black ball-point pen on lined 8x11 inch paper.
The letter describes hallucinations that Cobain claims he was having at the time, as well as mentioning an episode of 'Top of the Pops' that the star had just watched.
Cobain asked a hotel receptionist to fax the letter to Love for him. When she later asked what she should do with the original, Cobain told her to keep it as a souvenir.

- Golf: PGA Championship
Golf is one sport that looks amazing on TV, so here's another treat for couch potatoes. Hazel Irvine presents live coverage of the fourth and final round at Wentworth. Last year's final day culminated in a dramatic play-off between Luke Donald and Lee Westwood, and it was the former who emerged victorious to take the world number one spot off his compatriot. With so many Europeans dominating the top of the World rankings, viewers can expect a tight contest (and maybe an Irish win).
