Here you go.

Explaining who and why would take far too long. Instead, here's a compilation video of various competitors making their ring entrance. Feel free to select your favourites:

No, allow me.

Got to feel for Pedro. He's picked him in all 3 rounds of the Deathlist Cup he's ever played, and now the sod's gone and died without him and became a List of the Missed alumnus.

I could be really picky and say it's Mothering Sunday.

Mr Kiplings latest "edgy" Bakewell Tart campaign goes a step too far for the Basingstoke branch of the WI.

Welcome back you complete twunt.

Maybe I can do it. I really like this game

That's the one TMIB handed over to Spade last Christmas?

Wrestling androids, mummy's (that look a bit like El Santo), and musketeers/centurions: my idea of wrestling heaven. There was a rumble few years ago in Preston where a wrestling moth entered the match, and then the heels turned the lights on and off to disorientate it for an easy elimination, but alas, otherwise mostly lost from the modern thing.

Hey, I missed out on Michel Delpech's obit because the Indie writer who was scheduled to do it died himself. It's a hard world out there.

http://www.spearswms.com/71966-2/ Clarissa Eden gives a rare interview aged 97 and she certainly comes across as having her mental faculties in good form.

As for Alan’s claim, ‘it ain’t necessarily so’. SC

It's Five Years After for Alvin Lee, who died from complications of surgery, aged 63.

Must be a small market for this.

Wong Chow calls into work and says, I no come work today, I really sick. Got headache, stomach ache and legs hurt, I no come work. The boss says, You know something, Wong Chow, I really need you today. When I feel sick like you do, I go to my wife and tell her to give me sex. That makes everything better and I go to work. You try that. Two hours later Wong Chow calls again. I do what you say and I feel great. I be at work soon. You got nice house.

Centre-half John Kurila, part of the Northampton Town team that rose from the bottom flight to the top flight and back down again in successive seasons, dead at 76.

Nothing happens in the Facebook group, you’re not missing anything. I have seen the Norfolk Webfoot on Facebook in the last week or two I think. He’s not dead.

My DDP team Pity Da Foolz is currently sitting 2nd (but just a QO for Spanky Manikan out of first-not holding my breath though). I guess this qualifies me for a self assessment of my chances. RIP Falkholt, Elias, Miller, Nevin, Cryne, Goodwin (and Manikan) The good oil hereabouts suggest that Stefannsson, Stiles, Bracknell, and McCain should score, not 100% convinced about 1 or 2 of these but who am I to argue with the collective genius. The other picks I am happy with are Ricketts, Butts and Frates. I think Anne Hamilton-Byrne will die but I think she was a poor pick as she is only worth 5 points. Of the others (Lima, Willesee, Cappotelli, Nolan, Bain), I think 1 or 2 might score but probably not strong picks on balance. Predicting somewhere around 13-14 hits and 150 points-a good enough score but not enough to challenge for the podium. Worst miss: Marieke Vervoort especially if she qualifies for the unnatural death bonus (which I think is dubious for reasons mentioned earlier).

Last night my friend David lost his ID. Now I call him Dav.

Thats nothing. The Police found that, on the 'Britain First' website, the filter was set up to change the word Muslim to Terrorist.
