I wish someone would post Mugabe's death...

It's time someone sued the Government for these deaths. I'm so angry reading about it, while these freaking millionaires say it's not because of their policies. My thoughts, condolences and anger are with you CL. I'm sorry to hear that anyone in 21st century Britain feels driven to suicide by the prospect of being destitute and unsupported.

I shall have my usual mix for my general team of people mentioned here, people who haven't been mentioned for a long time and at least one person who has had a death hoax and at least one person associated with The Beatles. My theme teams will write themselves I feel...

Looking through, I have been remiss on lists this year... Tbh, I have enough trouble updating the ones I created in 2016...ha!

Well I'd have called them grammatical errors...

Lewis Hamilton's team robbed in Brazil... See what happens when you move your money offshore?

Apologies if this has been covered, but according to IMDB, Michael Halsey died in September 2017. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0357036/?ref_=nmbio_bio_nm

Seems to be...in which case he is my first miss of the year for my 1981 Hits theme team. (Doubt he'll obit though). In fact, the only other person so far this year to have died from my 1981 long list was Saxa, who scored. And it was a bloody long list...
