Aishwarya Rai Bachchan: Indian actress taken to hospital with Covid-19 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-53452307

From the BBC website. Not confirmed as yet but Zindzi Mandela may have died from Covid19. 'Zindzi Mandela, the youngest daughter of South Africa's first black president Nelson Mandela and anti-apartheid activist Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, tested positive for Covid-19 the day she died. She died in a Johannesburg hospital in the early hours of Monday morning at the age of 59. Her son Zondwa Mandela told public broadcaster SABC that it is unclear if the disease caused her death. The family is waiting for the autopsy report. "Simply by the virtue that there was a positive test, we are therefore obligated to function and work within the framework of the existing regulation related to such cases," he said.'

haha. Good one.

Indeed. One kept the other going. Maybe. Bobby in the next couple of months.

I presume that is slang in the Northern Counties because it is not in the South. Or did you get the wrong end of the stick at some point?

By living until he got to that age.

I honestly thought this guy had died years and years ago. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly theme tune now in my head for the rest of the week. God help anyone who comes near me in the next few days. Beautiful music. RIP.

If they ever try to revive this film series, they may like to base the film on this quote from the National Audit Office concerning the new aircraft carriers being built for the Royal Navy. 'The National Audit Office highlighted concerns over missing key elements such as aircraft and support ships.' https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53186611

Maradona has signed a new contract as a head coach. Fair played to him for keeping busyish but I think it will be the death of him. Pele to follow soon after given his medical problems. Gazza to miraculously stay alive until his sixties. Those northerners are tough as old boots. "Maradona signs new contract to continue serving as Gimnasia's head coach until Dec. 31, 2021. Argentine football legend Diego Maradona has renewed his deal with top-tier Superliga club Gimnasia for a year."

This has the whiff of "legal" tax/debt/pension fund deficit avoidance about it.
