Masterlist is up. 26 Players are sitting down with their cards at the ready. I wish everyone and especially me the best of luck! Captain Chorizo's defence of his title begins!

It just turned midnight in Paris, where she lives. Officially 104 now!

Thanks to the Googler who came across this thread, registered and messaged me to let us know that Brian Walker died last month.

Kind of off topic but meh, shoot me... still more constructive than discussing whether the Grim Reaper is like “an enema”. The number of centenarians is decreasing to a notable extent in the UK. The ONS stats now have the centenarian numbers published up to 2018. It has fallen to around 13,000 individuals. Sounds like a lot but it has been considerably higher before. The reason is attributed to the sharp fall in births during WWI. Life expectancy also remains fairly static, so we shouldn’t expect to see an increase for a few years at least.

Happy 85th birthday

The rather stunning Debbie Harry, 75

Just the masterlist. I enter the names manually first (this acts as a second check to see if there are duplications) then the cards allocated. It's quite a job actually, but when it is done it is a magnificent opus to behold. Shouldn't be long, I'm on the last team now.

That line-up illustrates why I don't play in this pool. Almost all of them are names I have never clapped eyes on before.

And its at this point I twig the Jamie Farr of MASH folk were talking about this week isn't Radar.

Unless they're also "Slovenia's Elvis Presley" or something like that - it's relatively unlikely.

A notable absence from the notable crew section is director Robert Zemeckis, born 14 May 1952, and alive. Might want to edit him into the list.

Warning!!!! Please share, dont become a victim of this scam. Today I was walking through Sheffield city centre when I was approached by a smartly dressed man who asked me if I would like to smell his cheese. As he asked this he gestured his hand towards my nose which was in the extended palm position. Being a lover of cheese I saw no harm in taking the man up on his kind offer. As he brought his hand up to my nose what I hadn't noticed was that his other hand was in the clentched fist position at the base of his extended palm (see picture). When his finger tips reached my nostrils I could neither see or smell the cheese and it was too late to retract as his now perfectly alligned fist of the other hand was traveling towards my nose at speed, which struck me with considerable force. There was never any cheese! This was a scam to catch me off guard and punch me in the nose. No matter how much you love cheese do not accept offers to "smell my cheese" off people you don't know. Please share and stay safe!

New York Times issues correction after it erroneously implied that British people "flocked to swamps" during lockdown.

The world could use some good news so I went with Henry Kissinger

I selected Pierre Cardin, seemed like a good fit.

Maybe they're handing Andrew over to the Feds for questioning

My Great Grandmother with David Prowse when he was a bouncer with my grandad in the 60's.

Congrats GUN! Wednesday 130

As a bit of a treat before the official match begins, they only share 4 names in total, and with those names only two are worth the exact same point total (while they share two other picks one of them does have a joker advantage on those two names). Should be interesting times ahead...

I would like participate, if you let me in, here is my team: 1920: Neal Edward Smith/Paula Stafford 1921: Francisco Morales Bermúdez/Hazel McCallion 1922: Miloš Jakeš/Rachel Robinson 1923: Albert Vanhoye/Roser Bru 1924: Antony Hewish/Priscilla Pointer 1925: Giorgio Napolitano/Inez van Dullemen 1926: Jorge Medina/Marilyn Erskine 1927: Eduardo Martìnez Somalo/Joan Jara 1928: Humberto Maturana/Delfina Guzmán 1929: Édouard Balladur/Violeta Chamorro

Silent film actress Virginia Brown Faire died on this day 40 years ago, aged 76.

If we're being that technical then we would have to count the time she was born. The chances are she wasn't born in the early hours of the morning.

"All my old friends are dying, so I'm making new and younger ones!" Frail and forgetful but still with a huge zest for living, and spending her birthday with her 85 year old niece eating cake. There are worse twilights...
