   Simon MacCorkindale has cancer?!

   It was confirmed on the 08/10/2009 in both the News of The World and The Mail on Sunday that Simon has been battling cancer for 3 years. Firstly with bowel cancer which he has over come, but this lead to secondary tumors in his lungs. He is currently using a mix of traditional and alternative therapies, and is determined to prove his doctors wrong that he has 5 years left to live.

   Our thoughts and prayers are with both Simon and his wife Susan at this difficult time, and we will continue to support Simon though this, the same way we have supported him for the past 3+ years.

   What's the correct spelling Simon MacCorkindale's surname?

   Simon's surname is spelt MacCorkindale.

   I have seen others spell it in the following ways: McCorkindale (most common misspelling), MaCorkindale, Mcorkindale, McCorquodale (the original spelling of this name), MacCorkingdale, MaCorkingdale, McCorkingdale, Maccorandale, Mcorcindale, Mccorkendale, McKorkindale, Makorkindale, Mc'Corkindale, Mccormindale, Mccorkerdale, McCordindale, Mcaukindale, Mqcorkindale!

   I think that's all of them will add more if I come across them
