Yeah the things you do while watching MPs vote. I looked at the first twelve days of June for deaths, tried to tally with those who didn't have the death tag and bump them up. (Thanks mods for the tagging). First 12 days of June are a fertile haunting ground....in addition to those I bumped, there was Billy Preston, Frances Shand Kydd, Guy de Rothschild, etc etc. This year it's Lady Mary Wilson...and the day isn't out yet.

Fourteen and a bit years ago, Ray Charles stopped loving life on 10 June 2004, aged 73.

It's been 13 and a bit years since Ed Bishop strake out on 8 June 2005, aged 72.

It's been 10 and a bit years since Bo Diddley's heartstrings broke on 2nd June 2008, aged 79.

It's been 9 and a bit years since David Carradine died on 3 June 2009, aged 72.

Voting has begun on the EU Withdrawal Bill, and the Lords' amendments thereto. Government time limited debate was fairly predictable, usual entrenched positions, but there has been a Ministerial resignation over this, so there should be a couple of defeats in the offing for Tezza and chums.

Not really, I didn't address your "joke" at all, so I couldn't have analysed it. Just like here, I didn't address Nolan's appearance. I've said it here before, I'll say it again...if you look at what I write, it isn't necessarily what you want it to mean.

Appearing on Loose Women = The Lynda Bellingham Defence.

Correct. I don't see your point.

Nope, I know he's not personally "poor" enough to qualify for whatever crazy health lottery Americans have....I'm making a point...I just don't understand why someone hasn't exercised their Second Amendment rights against the lot of them yet. You are all paying rich people money to make them richer, while you aspire to...what, exactly? Trumponomics makes McCain's plans for the economy during his presidential run look positively realistic.

Maybe he's on his way to Hell, you know, just to check out that special place Satan has reserved for Trudeau and the Canadians....

I'm sure every taxpayer in America is paying for Kudlow's treatment, along with Trump's golf trips, Pruitt's expensive office furniture, Mnuchin's foreign holidays....etc etc etc.... Not only that, but I'll bet one dollar* they are offsetting those costs against their personal gains for tax purposes... (*the Trading Places bet)

I knew someone would get the main forum first, so I sneaked into the French speaking list while you weren't looking....

After Pat Lally (who got a Times Obit), now former Provost of Edinburgh, George Grubb has reportedly died: https://www.theedinburghreporter.co.uk/2018/06/former-lord-provost-george-grubb-dies/ Perhaps not as exciting a character as Lally, but what a coincidence...

Report of the death of Luan Peters, British actress who made a couple of appearances in Doctor Who (The Macra Terror; Frontier In Space) and is well remembered as the girl who gets fondled in Fawlty Towers while Basil is looking for the light switch in The Psychiatrist: Died late 2017 reportedly. Couldn't find anything here. IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0676568/

Former Conservative MP for Norwich South, Tom Stuttaford has reportedly died: https://www.theoldie.co.uk/blog/tom-stuttaford

That of course was my gentle prod...came across his name in summat and thought I'd have a look here.

From the Death Anniversary Thread:

Out of his serious condition. Dead. http://www.kfvs12.com/story/38391854/neal-boyd-americas-got-talent-winner-sikeston-native-passes-away-at-42

I'm sometimes doubtful that these dates don't tally with all the other reported sources. Had a quick search of the Surrey Birth records and there is an Edward V Johnson born in 1919 in the right area. Can't find anything for 1920. So the obit is likely correct. Edit: Everybody wants to be a Cat, 'cos a Cat's the only thing, who knows where it's at.....
