Probably shouldn't go anywhere since its likely as good as bullshit

I like 'Everlasting Love'

My father is building up quite the history of sexually harassing my next door neighbour. Memorably "I hope you're talking to me" when she was innocently threatening her small boys with a spanking. And recently about their bathroom refit. "I would love to get in that old bath with you darling" He also once said he'd give 'both" my underage daughter and her friend smacked bottoms if they didn't get home on time. Obviously I've recorded all this and if I didn't need to keep him alive for inheritance purposes I'd be straight on the phone to Inspector Yewtree. I'm buying him massage oil and a new bathrobe for Christmas.

What Zimbabwe political scene will look like when Bob dies: Grace might want to take over... her having a chance to is another matter.

Eleanor Roosevelt campaigned her last on this day 55 years ago, aged 78.

YW so sorry to hear of your losses - it does seem wretchedly cyclical. Here's to better times

Deffo!

Leonard Cohen stopped singing on this day 1 year ago, aged 82.

Oh, I changed my vote... ...to Jimmy Carter.

I do think people changing their vote sometimes even after the person has died but before the poll has closed are being a bit daft and are going overboard. It kind of defeats the purpose.

Well he made it to 99,but can he make it to 100?

Lester's down under for the Melbourne Cup. Looking quite spry.

I'm glad that at least he got to celebrate one last birthday with his family. This also proves that he is an amazing fighter, most if not all people here for some reason had a firm belief that he was going to be the very first hit, and now 16 picks passed away before Michael, who at 96, is battling both leukemia and metastatic epidermoid carcinoma. Peace be with you, your majesty.

Ah yeah, British comedy. I forgot. Nevermind.

In my wisdom I ignored the suggestion to pick King Michael of Romania! In my defence I'm newish, this is my first year fully participating in all the main pools and I'm not a hugely competitive person by nature! I still have hope of storming the leaderboard though ! Still waiting for The Dowager Duchess of Grafton to deliver for me and compensate for this obvious miss!

Friction burns LFN?

It's been a sad few days for fans of Doctor Who ! Basically Dudley Simpson provided the soundtrack for 1970s Doctor Who episodes .RIP to a musical genius !

Saw Ozzy with Sharon on Gogglebox last night. He looked fine. Wasted pick to return him.

.....and you are a man from the UK who is, in no way, a bird from Norway or summat.

Bang on the money. Our Belgian "friend" yet again.

The Hanover convention, 1894.

Says the guy who posts obscure American politicians and unknown university president.

Deathrace Form Guide #23 Clarissa Eden 97 year old widow of 50's Prime Minister. Widowed 40 years, and so far from her high profile days that there are probably a few people reading these words and groaning that MPFC has chosen to remind the world the highly obitable dowager continues to...well; dowage (whatever that means). Die-hard dead pool teases still die, eventually. Just ask Zsa Zsa...oh sorry, you can't; she's dead.
