Ex Swansea keeper Dai Davies dead at 72 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52065738

Dai Davies has lived up to his name. Or is that died up to his name? Either way, four teams bravely risked the survival of a man in hospice with pancan and now face the predictable loss of points. =1. An Fear Beag 0 =1. Annami 0 =1. Banana 0 =1. Bibliogryphon 0 =1.

Interesting choice of lawyer in this zoom call:

Had his vaccine, looks as you'd expect here… https://youtu.be/8kHYUq0_0YQ

Dai Davies continues the recent hot streak in the HPDP with a lot of teams picking up points. With 15 teams picking him, he's the most popular hit thus far and the 5th most popular pick. 50 points for CaptainChorizo and maryportfuncity. 45 for An Fear Beag and YorkshireBanker. 40 for msc, Perhaps, and Sean. 35 for Book, Eesti, and Funeralopolis. 25 for drol, En Passant, JoeMoneypenny, and Torva Messor. 5 for The Old Crem. New scoreboard time. Perhaps holds onto his lead thanks to being among the Davies beneficiaries but Spinks allows An Fear Beag to leap into second. I'll enjoy the top 10 view while it lasts... 1.

Well here’s a tip. Read the fucking rules before deciding whether to enter a fucking pool. Don’t want to read them? Then don’t enter pools. It’s not that hard

Sorry, we really need a German hit!!!

There is a thread for sweepstakes.

Nor me. My first thought was that she was a porn star (a cutie who enjoys the art of er.. fellatio) who had wandered on to the wrong list. Other than that I agree with Biblio re Kate Bush.

Can't take a rock HOF that doesn't have Iron Maiden, Motorhead or Thin Lizzy in it seriously, ngl.

Last Malaysian survivor of Pasir Panjang Battle (wiki), Ujang Mormin, dead of COVID-19 at 100.

Did he play in the same Swansea team as you?

This report sets it straight: "The former Golden Eaglets’ assistant coach, according to close relatives died of complications from COVID-19 on Tuesday night. It was gathered that Shofoluwe battled with COVID-19 at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital before his death. Shofoluwe was earlier diagnosed of COVID-19 contrary to the speculation of a brain disease."

He really struck it lucky.

Apologies if already posted but this is quite fun. Captain Tom Moore appearing as a contestant on Blankety Blank in 1983!

Didn’t you forget? You actually had Floyd Lewis as your first hit of the year rather than Floyd Little.

Well about mid-March Banana will run out of team members after 40 hits and then the rest of us are relying on bonuses...

Zzzzzzz.

I haven’t fuckall clue who or what a Fela Kuti is. Foo Fighters - Carole King - Tina Turner are 3 locks. Jay-Z probably another. Then it gets tricky. Assuming they feel they must put a metal head band in, Iron Maiden? Do they feel they must? I love Kate Bush, but the RnR HOF is in Cleveland and I doubt any of the 500000 or whatever inhabitants would know her if she stepped on their foot. So she’s out. Didn’t we run Rundgren up the flagpole last year? He lost, that’s it. Out. Go-Go’s>Devo (not in my book, you asked who gets in). And both >>>> than the New York Dolls. But something to be said for dying at the right time (Sylvain x2) and bringing notoriety. Foo Fighters Carole King Tina Turner JAY-Z Go-Go’s New York Dolls There are your 6 winners, assuming they have no limits.

Yep, he’s already dead https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nba.com/news/tom-konchalski-dies-at-74%3famp=1

Pachin dead aged 82. Won 7 La Liga, 2 European Cups during his time with Real Madrid.

If someone doesn't do it by the time I get home, I'll do it.

Come on

Curious, the second coin-related topic in a row. Anyway, here's my two euro-cents: Over here, the only denomination with commemorative coins entering circulation are 2€. That's a value that's more likely to stay in circulation quite a while. Of course smaller countries' sets are smaller, too, and surface more rarely, e.g. German coins on the other hand are extremely widespread. There's an ongoing Bundesländer series with one different state (represented by some well-known monument) minted each year. Even the old ones (they started with Schleswig Holstein in 2005 and are set to end next year with Thuringia) still turn up in change sometimes, and I'm always excited to catch the new ones in the wild, usually around this time of the year (haven't got Saxony-Anhalt yet, though!).
