    Seriously? How old are you? Where do you want me to start? Charles and Camilla is a real love story with happy end! Also, Charles is an old hippy and probably votes green. Yes that old familiar love story where out of a misplaced sense of honour a guy allows the woman he (supposedly) loves to marry his pal shack up with a brood mare 15 years his junior and subjects her a miserable marriage whilst cuckolding his pal until he finally drives away his wife and then she conveniently dies/is killed (delete as appropriate if you are Muhammed Al Fayad) and then they finally marry so she can care for him as he descends into an eccentric pensionerhood still waiting to fulfill his destiny. Why Disney haven't done that one I can only guess. Disney are still working on the animated story of a young black boxer who makes his way in the world by punching people in the head and getting punched back in the head until he lives out his life, rich but unable to string two words together and quivering like a pensioner who's just about to have his winter fuel allowance means tested.

    Hooroo, Mate.

    We just posting every obit found now? Who is this person and if what notoriety are they? None that I see. I appreciate a good wife stabbing death though. For the record, podiatrist is a foot doctor. What are they called across the pond? SirC *shrugs* Think Vionic are quite a big company in the world of footwear, secretly I was more interested in the spousal steak knife aspect too! I would have used chiropodist, but there be niceties about descriptions. I've only ever heard of podiatry in non-UK contexts.

    Thanks for your hard work TMIB. Not sure the scoreboard or Who's Dead pages have been updated, but that might sort itself. (I'm not affected, still have a clean sheet and zero points - I shall forever be Norway *sigh*).
