Cross-posting and giving Toast the credit, as it should be.

I voted Hepton for the Crowdsourced DL, but democracy sucks and he is not on it.

Only one of those suggestions appeals to me

Bernard Hepton died on 27 July. Thought this would have been posted already, but can't see it. Guardian obit

Sitting in a comfy chair with cushions can be very bad for your health.

Ive been here a while and never heard of that thread. Marked and remembered. SC

Tommy Roe's daughter Cindy posted an update on his condition on Facebook "Dad is doing much better they took the balloon pump out and he has to lay flat for another 4 hours or so and then they will get him up into a chair !! He's in good spirits and resting now. Thank you for all the prayers"

Hepton has gone Cold - Itz Points for one player. Actively considering updating the leaderboard now we've had some hits.

"Oh well, Bernard Hepton's still alive, better pick him!" RIP forum reference Brilliant actor, unjustly forgotten from the Tinker Tailor generation of character actors.

Claudette Colbert's death happened one night today in 1996.

[ignoring the fact this was completely the wrong thread for the band] Holy shit, Test Icicles were one of the absolute nadirs of mid-00s indie. Would rather listen to The Paddingtons, Lupen Crook and Milburn at exactly the same time.

Found this clean pun on the Sickipedia - honestly, what's the world coming to? Lion King FC - recent results A win, away A win, away A win, away A win, away

Johnny Lewis, a former Major League Baseball player in the mid 1960s for the St. Louis Cardinals & New York Mets and a coach with the Cardinals in the early-to-mid 70s & again in the mid--to-late 80s, has died. He was 78.

Aye, his death's already been reported in here, just that it's one of three wrestler deaths today so a bit easier to lose track.

if you have Urinary tract infections the pee can look a bit like soup

I am amazed to find out that Pat Carroll best known for her part in the little mermaid as Ursula is still alive and turning 91.

So, thread dies a death as soon as The Man condones it. DDT has learnt a new admin superpower today.

That Face Off was shorter than the fucking film! But better, because the film is shite.

Never had a fight but you have seen hundreds, eh Toastie!!

Weirdo dream for a weirdo. So last night, I was dreaming that for some reason, the government had insisted all deadpoolers lived together. So they'd chucked a bunch of us in the same house, only all the other Deathlisters were all famous folk. So there was me, charon (Jerry Sadowitz), Sir Creep (Ed Harris as his character from the Abyss!), DDT (an old farmer I didn't catch the name of - looked a bit like the Fast Show farmer tbh) and Bou (Joanna Lumley). Apparently Deathray was in the house but asleep, and Death Impends lived there but was in court as "the neighbours thought his name was a threat". Charon/Sadowitz kept looking out of the windows for the police coming. Anyhow, knock at the door and I got sent to answer it. Sir Humphrey Appleby from Yes Minister. He walks into the room, and everyone else is all "Oh its Bibliogryphon here for the rent!" I said it was Sir Humphrey and Ed Harris/Sir Creep went "Yeah but everyone knows he's Gryphon!" They haggled over money, and Sir Humphrey/Biblio forbid charon from knocking down a wall in the house as it could hurt or kill people. "Only English passersby!" Anyhow, then DDT, who had been silent up to this point, suggests we had Sister Wendy over for tea - his only line in the entire dream - and then I woke up. So none of the rest of you got to show up. Very weird.

The Tall Ships are fantastic to see. Thank you Donald.

Who let their dad on the forums?

Seems I should have added a bit more or had more thought before I posted earlier My Parents, grandparents, and their siblings all died over 80, the eldest 93. I can't imagine living another 10 let alone 40. And I express my condolence to family, friends, and fans of Motorhead legend Ian Lemmy Kilmeister. I partied with him as well Bollocks. And it's Kilmister. Thanks for the insightful thought provoking reply. I have always liked intelligent conversation. To be fair, Lardy, Lemmy must have partied with loads of people, so some of them are bound to crop up. Can semi confirm he wasn't in the slightest elitist either, was at a gig they did way back when in what iirc was at the time "The Music Machine" in Camden Town. I was a wet behind the ears late teen, so oh 1980 or so I guess. Before the gig the man was playing "winners stays on" or the like with the punters at the pool table by the bar.

That one did turn out to be a mistake.

Not family, but a family friend. Got the news last night a neighbour has the big 'C'. She survived a breast cancer scare, but say it's now in her liver, kidneys and back. They've given her a month.
