In view of these recently surfaced mitigating circumstances the court is on this occasion prepared to waive any immediate custodial sentence. However it must be stated that ignorance of the principle of Joint Enterprise law is not in and of itself sufficiently exculpatory to obviate punishment entirely. Furthermore, you could have closed your eyes and stuck your fingers in your ears and shouted "La la la, La la la" for 90 minutes, it wouldn't have killed you. Dons black cap......You will be taken from this place and made to watch 12 hours of Danny Dyer films straight and may that be a lesson to you. Bailiff take him down.

Perhaps even more disconcertingly to those of us locally who are now used to viewing your posts in awe of the intellectual wit contained therein, this supposes that in order to ascertain any likely effect upon its star, you are familiar with the content of this film and furthermore actually bothered to view it having presumably seen its predecessor. Oh and er, no, sorry. Me neither.

Maths = Mathematics. Nothing wrong with that. We also say meths for methylated spirits.

Interestingly, U.S. Census records reveal that Rip Taylor was born in 1931, not 1935 as previously reported, which in turn means that the two Rip Ts were born weeks apart.

I remember a lady in my Grandads nursing home was 99 and determined to make 100 and said then she would be happy to go.She always said it was her last wish.She caught pneumonia a week before but recovered in time to celebrate her 100th in the homes dining room.Grandad died around that time but I heard a couple of years ago she was a month or two shy of 103 and still going.

Reese Witherspoon. One Sunday afternoon she'll be watching herself in Legally Blonde 2 on the telly, realise what an embarrassingly dreadful cash-in it was and top herself in shame. To answer your question, sorry, no.

I vaguely recall (after the fact) hearing about some "not realistic" criticism of an early Brookmyre novel where the killer is a doctor who bumped off 10 patients. This was pre-Shipman. Mind you, I can strongly recall Harold Shipman being interviewed on TV as just someone involved in a death, and attacking the press for intrusion into his private life. Being quite young at the time, it was a right twist ending for me when it turned out hedunnit.

We also say wank as short for wanker. As in, “Sir Creep is a total wank”.

Shingler’s family tweeting about her death here. Basically confirming what you suggested, she put in her best effort to hang in to reach the milestone, knowing that she’d soon go.

Which is? As a one-stop complete record for the year. Every notable death should be recorded in the current yearly thread, as well as in its appropriate specialised thread (where applicable).

Exactly. They need her only as a symbol, because nobody likes Charles.

2034 seems a good bet to me can’t see her living past 108, think she will live longer than her mum who lived to be 101 she seems fitter than her Mother was at the same age but the Queen Mother was an alcoholic. Will be Queen in name only I think once she passes 95, more and more responsibilities will be taken off her but she will never abdicate.

Looks perfectly healthy in hit Netflix series Dead to Me.

Pass the Dutchie to a fresh new grave (I said...) Just realized you can copy/paste this lovely one-liner for every entry in this thread. SC

The number of elephants in a Thai national park that died trying to save a baby elephant from drowning has risen to 11, officials said Tuesday. Thai authorities initially said six elephants were dead after a roughly 3-year-old elephant drowned at Khao Yai National Park, about 85 miles northeast of Bangkok. Five other elephants were thought to have jumped into Haew Narok Waterfall to try to save the baby. A drone has since located another five dead elephants near Haew Narok, the park's tallest waterfall. Fucking awful. SC
