    Rode bikes until the age of 107/108, what a legend. From 1911 left are Renée Simonot, Marita Quiros and Eileen Ash. Ash seems to still be in a pretty good condition, Quiros was holding a therapy doll in the last photo of her. Can't find new pictures of Simonot. Still a stronger year (atleast has a larger amount of famous centenarians alive) than 1912 and 1913. 1912 has Dagny Carlsson, the Swedish blogger and Jessie Lichauco, American/Filipino philanthropist. 1913 is an men's only club with journalist Vance Trimble and holocaust survivior/writer Boris Pahor.

    Fortunately I haven't aged too badly. I have photos of my father when he was the same age and I look better than he did but he lived to be 90. Although I have slight health issues beginning to creep in. Fortunately my daughter knows better than to comment on our ages and we are often younger than her contmpories parents

    The irony of talking about having respect for members and not crossing the line between fun and not fun only to then end your post by casting a age old trope of diagnosing someone with a medical condition of 'physcopath' just because they've exhibited some Internet behaviour you don't agree with. I doubt either me or Zorders meet medical qualification for physchopathy. It's funny how people can bleet on about the need for respect whilst exhibiting every behaviour they complain about.

    It does all have the air of desperation. "I'm not getting my way, so here's another thing you did to screw me up." I'm not entirely sure what it is he wants though, he's currently got a free life to do what he wants in the sunshine of LA, with his wife and (soon to be) children and he also gets to keep his title, while doing nothing to warrant it. It is peculiar that the Royal Family has ruined his life yet he still wants to be the Duke of Sussex for some reason.

    I mean I know we're all eager to get back to sex and stuff, but those no need to go straight to suction play.

    I would suggest that, had his pow wow with Daddy and Wills gone well(ish) he may have wound his neck in a tad. Clearly, it went fucking badly so the lad is going for broke. He is a massive twat.

    Nobody is pretending that the Royal Family is not dysfunctional. If you can find it, there is a clip of a young Prince Charles being greeted, IIRC, off a train by his parents, after arriving home from boarding school. The average family would hug and kiss, they all shook hands! Not normal. The point I made was that, as an example, if somebody accused somebody in your family of being a racist, YOU would be in the frame for it because there was no confirmation that you were not. Your whole family would be the subject of a witch hunt, worse still, your whole family would get tagged with that label. That would be wrong, surely? Let's not forget that she was welcomed by the vast majority of us, the rock that Harry needed, the streets knee deep in well wishers, millions watching the wedding on the TV, there was no hate... They were perfectly entitled to go their own way, it's just the way they have gone about it has created the notion that they have fled a racist royal family and a racist country. We have ALL been given that nice label and people have been, rightly, fucked off about it. As you say, if we all shut the fuck up but, let's be honest, they are not going to stop the fucking hand wringing and the more they say the more of our piss they boil. Basically, stop slagging off the family and the UK in public and all will be tickety boo, or summat.

    Bob Dole, Abdelaziz Bouteflika, Marsha Hunt, Bob Barker are ones I recommend for next year but atleast half of the four will be gone by then. Kenneth Kaunda and FW De Klerk to continue the tradition of having African despots on the list. There are also a ton of despots who will soon be good for the list (Yakubu Gowon, Sam Nujoma, Paul Biya, Denis Sassou Nguesso, Teddy Obiang and Ali Hassan Mwinyi) but probably not for next year as they don't seem to be in bad health yet, except maybe Obiang with his health history and succession battles.

    A shocking miss from the DL! I've been saying since 2005 that she was on the way out.

    The confusion came because the journalists asked "Is she the oldest?" and they responded "There's nun older".
