    So yeah, you're not done with me as DDP co-host yet. No one offered to take up the mantle, but doing slimmer obits has made things considerably easier and pretty much "TMIB redux"-proofed the front page. In fact I don't think there will be any changes for next year, rule or personnel wise, outside of acknowledging that The Times is a .com website now rather than .co.uk. The DDP 2025 thread and launch will be coming over the weekend.

    Some happy news I want to share with all of you: about two months ago, my wife and I became parents for the first time. Our son is in good health and growing well, just as my wife has recovered well from giving birth. Our daily lives have changed massively, but we're lucky enough to have lots of loved ones who are there for us in these changing times. We're both completely in love with our boy, and it's great to see him learn new things.

    It looks like we've lost a song along the way. I don't see it being eliminated, I think it got lost off the bottom when someone copied the previous score board. 06 Wildchild - Renegade Master '98 Please would the next person to post add this back in.

    There are many many more I guess. To cite a notable one, Ivanne Trebbi (wiki), born 1928 and also a deputy in the 80s.

    Speaking of Misty, it appears she may have deleted her Instagram and X accounts. They were the most frequent sources for updates and photos of Steve.

    Yes. The Yahoo issue seems to have sorted itself out since those local Oklahoma papers and whatnot can't seem to be UK-ified anymore.
