LESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It's always the ones you least expect....

4 gay men are in a hot tub. All of a sudden, a condom comes afloat and one of the gay men says to the others 'Ok who farted?'

Worth noting that Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, retired from the Lords a few days ago. He recently turned 70, but for someone who is very active and has been an enthusiastic contributor to that chamber, it could be suspect.

The ultimate busman's holiday. Remember kids, never take your work home with you.

You see, the look gaunt thing doesn’t really work on the bad guys. He’ll be here for years to come

Still only 6pm on the western coast of the USA !

Well, it certainly is now. 2am on September 1st. We didn't get a hit this month, but I've a good feeling for September. I'll give us 2 hits.

Grats to @Grim Up North on his freakishly accurate guesses, and a hearty round of applause to @Paul Bearer for running this brilliant, sick little number.

Martin O’Neill, Baron O’Neill of Clackmannan, former Labour MP for Clackmannan and Eastern Stirlingshire (1979-1983) and Ochil Clackmannan (1983-1997) and Ochil (1997-2005), has reportedly died aged 75. Served in Kinnock’s Shadow Cabinet as Defence Secretary from 1988-1992. Edit: The Guardian obituary.

Another obscure centenarian who was on my 1916 list: Robert Finkelstein, theoretical physicist, reportedly dead at 104.

Marguerite Harl, french literary scholar has died at 101 http://www.orient-mediterranee.com/spip.php?article4452&lang=fr (in french)

Still think it should be a national holiday

Cue that David Mitchell video clip...Oh nvm, here it is....

Will this be the second time Tapie's deception costs someone a title?
