    Ok chaps, the usual 3 teams have been sent, got the auto response from @Banana so hopefully all is good and nobody bloody well dies between now and the end of the year (as they often do when my teams are concerned - yes, I'm giving Betty White's grave a hard Paddington stare I borrowed from @msc)!!

    Charlbi Dean's autopsy results released. Died from bacterial sepsis, caused by an infection. The removal of her spleen after a 2008 car crash, which she narrowly survived, put her at greater risk of bacterial infections.

    Ive tried to send you a PM but you can’t receive (box full maybe?) but commiserations about your brother - I don’t know anything about him or how old he was but the anniversary of the loss of any family member is normally a sad time and a time for reflection. Cheers, GUN

    Not suprised - he looked very frail in October when he met the Dalai Lama. (The only thing I'm suprised is that he's the first person to die from that list) As far as I know his predecessor Khensur Lungri Namgyel (ལུང་རིག་རྣམ་རྒྱལ) is still alive and 95. He lives in the Thar Deu Ling temple in France, Île-de-France, Seine-et-Marne, Chelles that he founded in 1980.

    SC, 5 of the 30 original names have died in just over a month. People enter dead pools mostly with the intent to pick people that might die. I'd suggest a 16 per cent hit rate after one month would maybe help a few DP players think hmmm 'might be worth choosing an old footballer' and it's in one place for them to choose. There were far more threads started every day back in 2004 and 2005 that would've annoyed you, be thankful that you are of your time.

    I gave you a 'like' for NOT posting a goddamn Bulgarian link like some people around here do with useless obits (see Dutch, Italian, Swedish). SC
