    John Lydon of the butter adverts fame is 65 His wife Nora Foster may be a good bet as her Alzheimer's has got a lot worse in the last couple of years and Lydon is her full-time carer now.

    Just remembered that Buddy Holly's widow is still alive currently aged 88, as is his older brother, Larry, who is 95. Feels very weird to me (almost John Tyleresque) given the length of time since Buddy Holly died.

    Meshulam Dovid Soloveitchik (1921-2021) Where the hell are my tefillahs? Age at death: 99 Known health issues: Well, everything. Serious cardiorespiratory disease, in critical condition with lung infection in December 2019, again in hospital after a fall in May 2020, got COVID in October 2020, was on life support and received tracheostomy. Cause of death: acute kidney failure as a likely complication of COVID-19. Alignment: well, Dov was the kind of guy you'd see in an angry bigot mob meeting up with torches to burn down Penthouse.

    Trouble with the legal team: five of them have quit rather than argue that the election was stolen. Trump impeachment defense: Five attorneys leave team less than two weeks before trial - CNNPolitics I gather Lionel Hutz might be free though.

    I haven't read the whole thread and I dare say it's been mentioned before but there is a clear correlation between population density and Covid death rates, isn't there. Belgium, the one country* to have done even worse than the UK, has 973 people per square mile. Britain 725, Italy 518, France 319, Spain just 240. Yes France, with a similar population to us, has more than twice the land area. Germany is in the middle somewhere with 603. They managed the first wave well but have lost 47,000 in four months or so. And if you extract England from the rest of the UK our density goes up to a whopping 1,118. On that basis perhaps we haven't done any worse than might have been expected. *with at least 10 million people

    I was in Buckingham palace with my husband (I’m single and don’t recognise this geezer in my dream) who was collecting an MBE for services to entertainment. We were in this lobby with general merriment, drinks, canapés and other people presumably on the honours list (two people I remember being in the room are Sir David Attenborough and Eddie Izzard). Then a couple of doctors rushed through the room and some officials started talking through their earpieces in a panic, and I overheard one asking “Who’s going to phone through that London Bridge is down?” Anyway, I posted this in QEII’s thread and I heard that DL notification noise and Attenborough looked at his phone. Don’t know what was more of a shock; the Queen dying upstairs while waiting to knight people or the fact that Attenborough is a poster on here?

    I was watching tonights news with tears in my eyes watching the relatives of some of the 100,000 dead of corona in the UK Who would have thought so many would die from it so soon.. We are so used to talking about death maybe we sometimes forget the effect it has on their relatives and friends.I hope we all get vaccinated as fast as possible... R.I.P to them all. (apart from Peter Sutcliffe, obviously)
