All this thinking about the House of Lords made me realise it is fertile Deathlist ground and whilst I do not intend to recreate the whole membership here I thought I would throw a few names into the frey. Then you can make your DDP like an English seaside town by including a decrepid old peer. Since 2012 it has become possible for peers to formally renounce their membership of the house and their rights to speak but retain their titles. Four peers have currently exercised this option. Edwin Bramhall (b.1923) Justin Grenfell (b. 1935) 3rd Baron Grenfell John Habgood (b. 1927) Former Archbishop of York Jeremy Hutchinson (b 1915) Former husband of Peggy Ashcroft Should all be obit worthy.

Tree planted in memory of George Harrison killed by...beetles. Can't help thinking Monty Python loving George would have appreciated the irony! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-28417341

And man invented God. Do the Taliban know where you live?

We are all gutted and shocked by the death of Rik Mayall, and you are intruding on our grief. So fuck off.

Enjoy your time away from the DDP OoO. I personally think you're making a correct decision. You just have to blink and the next thing you know your kids are all grown up. I still can't believe my son is almost 30. Tempus fugit. Erm............. edited to say our member Tempus Fugit is not my son

A million monkeys with a million typewriters are getting closer. Or perhaps not.
