Well it is as you can imagine Mrs Biblio used to having the upstairs of the house to herself even when I am working from home was headed for her bath as God intended. I encountered her on the landing and accosted her. However in an effort to catch up with her in the lack of clothes I was rather hasty in using my foot to remove my trousers and I heard a sharp crack from the phone in my trouser pocket. Fortunately it is only a cheap phone & the damage is not too bad. But considering that neither of us are in the flush of youth it is a pretty embarrassing way to wreck your phone. Just glad it was not my work phone.

Crossposting. Youssoufi dead at 96.

Not long after Twitter fact-check labelled one of his unhinged tweets about postal ballots, they’ve now censored one of his tweets as having glorified violence. The tweet threatens the Minneapolis rioters “when the looting starts, the shooting starts”

Or, indeed, the right forum

Since when has this been the thread for “the right perspective”?

my great grandmother is actually 100, her mother herself made it to 100, my other great grandmother died at 97, an other one at 99 and one of my great grandfather at 95. On the other hand, my grandmother died at 62, her father at 70 so quite mixed honestly…

The digital magazine can be accessed through here. Other names include Pat Delany, Melinda O. Fee, Jerome Guardino, Sherwood Price, and possibly John Winston.

I knew this wouldn't have just been Wiki vandalism. The Hollywood Reporter confirm that she did die on 10th February aged 95!! They appear to have clocked her death after it was listed in the latest SAG-AFTRA magazine. Speaking of which... does anyone have access to the latest copy so they can see if anyone else has gone off radar?

Today’s Page 3 is a stunner!

So, summat we can likely all agree on A PS4 game that lets you drive to Barnard Castle as if you were Dominic Cummings, that's funny, right?

We have an ‘Oldest Person You Know‘ thread. Or summat. Pretty sure that would cover this. Also, this inherently hurts the frail paper thin feelings of some of us who watch out relatives perish before 80 on a consistent basis. It’s very hurtful. Some may be in therapy did you consider that? SC

Congrats to @Life Is Beautiful on his second Moroccan hit! Unfortunately you will have to wait until Ahmed Osman is old enough to join the list to get another one. New round to be started.

It's certainly more embarrassing than when I cracked my first screen - and that was in a Gents toilet!

Actually, it is. You just need to have the right perspective on it. Enjoy your beer

Apart from Bono possibly, none of those names listed are in the same league as my premonition.

Who tf is Shaun Cassidy? Certainly not a household name in this household.

According to his LinkedIn, his name is Eddie James Summers. Klunis seems to be a stage name. On Ancestry there’s an Eddie J Summers who married a Laura Broomfield in L.A. in 1966. He was born in Cherokee, Texas on 23 Aug 1947. If a book or an article etc. can link any of these details, then it’s him. Nothing comes up for “Edward” in place of Eddie.

A cursory glance at the wiki of any jobbing character actor from the past 50 years will probably reveal a soap credit of some description to be frank.

Bloodstone. Eddie Summers would appear from my researches to be this guy: https://www.movalleyrecords.com/movalleyrecords probably Summers being a stage name and real name Klunis. Biographical information on the band here: https://www.facebook.com/honoringlegends/posts/happy-birthday-to-our-friend-bassist-singer-and-songwriter-charles-mccormick-rig/10161707043985483/ indicating that Klunis/Summers was from Los Angeles. According to Twitter Harry Williams was alive in January, releasing a record: In 2019, this was posted to Facebook showing Williams performing from a wheelchair: Gawd alone knows how you trace a Harry Williams from Missouri, but there my trail ends. Therefore seemingly living at the very least.

Was also the UK's 3rd oldest man. Means there is now one British man born in 1911, and one born in 1912.

Looks like Joan Eileen Hocquard will be Britain's oldest person if she gets her age validated. 108 year old (Harry) Henry Fransman is now Britains oldest man by the looks of it. But 39th oldest person.

You are so much more agreeable than that other fella that used to be on here, what was his name.....oh yeah, Deathsperm. He was a right bastard.
