Just a bit of appreciation for the alleged "snowflake generation" who were hit completely suddenly, same as the rest of us true, but we had bad things Thatcher happen so were not so surprised and better equipped for it. I'm absolutely amazed and encouraged by their resilience so far and the younger members here are to be applauded for their utter courage if you ask me. They really have shown so much bravery in the face of this utter shitstorm. My daughter had an entire pregnancy and birth without her mother (or any support) due to restrictions. I don't know when I will be ever able to hold the wee girl, but my loss is nothing measured against hers without her mother. I think we're totally forgetting the sacrifices made by young people. I see them though, and thank fuck. Their sense and maturity really gives me hope. Unless that's just elite DLers?

Omgggggggggg shut UP JUST SHUT UP

She’ll want to surpass Louis XIV’s 72 year reign which would make her the worlds longer serving proper monarch ever. I think this occurs when she turns 98. After that she’ll just be reigning for shits and giggles and trolling Charles about it.

Twitter seems to think he's dead for some reason. Probably because he is dead. https://kpel965.com/rush-limbaugh-dead-at-70/

He'll be fine. It's all Harry and Meghan's fault for going on Oprah. His blood pressure must've skyrocketted.

That's the same thing I think about you.

great month for deathlist so far ! Limbaugh rushes out

He'll be fine. The only thing that can kill a ghoul is decapitation or complete destruction of the head.

He's 99 and 3 quarters and the Queen's husband. Obviously we'll have to wait and see but the fact they're taking every precaution is hardly surprising and doesn't sound too concerning from the early statement. The royals don't tend to die in hospital, if the end was really near I think he'd be in respite at Windsor - the fact in hospital means they think he'll recover.

All the old or unhealthy folk got booted out by Boris/Corbyn/3 elections in 4 years. Even David Winnick is still alive in retirement.

I’m giving up for Lent.

Either I'm getting old or top marks for Glenn Beck as "some journo with followers"!

Christopher Lee (not that one), author & historian, who wrote This Sceptered Isle, a 46 hour long radio series, for the BBC, has died aged 79, after catching Covid.

There's much greater evidence of Charles being a mortal being than Lizzie. At this point I'd be shocked if she died before 100.

If this zombie actually croaks, the QE2 could then die of a broken heart soon after. Perhaps Charlie boy could then have his long awaited coronation this year? However, I still think that Charles will die before Philip.

My old flatmate was a butler for the Queen! He still stays in touch with loads of ppl who work as their Staff. They’ve all been isolated in a bubble since the start of the pandemic. The only thing that gets in and out of the estate are food deliveries.

You know royal insiders?!

Yep. If they were in any way concerned he might die they wouldn't send him to hospital (as stupid as that sounds ) unless an op was needed.

When i was younger it bothered me a bit (especially when all my friends were paired up) but as I got older I've though fuck it. I do miss the receiving of anonymous cards though. I always wondered which of my mates was trying to wind me up.

Martí Vergés, part of Spain's 1962 squad, has died aged 86. He earned his 12 caps for Spain during his 13-year spell with Barcelona and also scored two goals. At Barcelona, he won three Inter-Cities Fairs Cups in 1958, 1960 and 1966, and Spanish titles in 1959 and 1960 and three Spanish Cups in 1957, 1959 and 1963. https://www.fcbarcelona.com/en/club/news/2032187/marti-verges-passes-away

It is now two years since the death of Paul Flynn, the last serving MP to die. This is a new record of time between deaths of serving MPs.

Christian singer Carman Licciardello dead at 65 according to his Facebook page.

TV producer, script editor etc., Betty Willingale reported dead. Mansfield Park, Bleak House, Jeeves & Wooster among her credits, and latterly was working as a consultant producer on Midsomer Murders.

I've already given up going out, reckon that'll cover it this year.

That is, by far, the best post this forum has ever had.
