I assume there will be a 2016 competition, RA? If so, when would you like entries to start? I have a team ready to go.

Hey Shaun, just wondering if I am to enter a team for next year whether there are new or refined rules for your competition. I hope things are a little less stressful for you and that you are keeping your chin up.

Merkel says she is unlikely to revisit founding principles of the EU. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-35118036 Not looking good for the pork plunger's feeble attempt to tell the rest of Europe what to do when they disagree with him, although he's having more success in dismantling the House of Lords' powers (who also disagree with him).

Sacked according to the BBC. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34670192

Once Cameron abolishes the Human Rights Act and introduces a shoot to kill policy on our streets....well, I'll leave that with you.

Ljubica "Gabre" Gabric (married name Calvesi), Croatian born Italian who competed at the 1936 and 1948 Olympics in the discus throw (finishing 10th and 17th respectively) has died at the age of 101. https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=it&u=http://www.fidal.it/content/Addio-a-Gabre-Gabric/63197&prev=search Canadian Paul's list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Canadian_Paul/Olympics has her born in 1917 however Wiki and FIDAL recognise her date of birth in 1914 which would place her 5th on that list before being removed as she is no longer alive.

Excuse my voyeurism. Oct 8 has come/gone did we pop that cherry? Keep an eye open for those upcoming Oct dates in a couple weeks. SC 8 October - Paul Prudhomme/Richard Davies 30 October - Al Molinaro That leaves 2 dates to go this year to fill. Edit: Actually that list is up to end of 2013. In 2014 Udo Jurgens and Billie Whitelaw died on 21 December 2014. So only 28 December can qualify another death this year.
