    I have been researching spiritual cannibalism. Did you know that The Aghori, a sect of Indian Monks, perform cannibalistic rituals in order to gain spiritual enlightenment. They are just like Smith & Jones (perhaps you remember the TV western series), they do not kill anyone for use in the ceremonies, using only the bodies of people who have already died.

    Most necrophiliac mortuary technicians use that get out clause. June Whitfield was wonderful.

    Everyone else has squat. 

     

    I am allowing a new entrant in because it looks like up to 3 slackers may have dropped out already as they haven't ponied up a Feb team.  Welcome to ebless, who has submitted the following:

    stan bowles

    vera lynn (4)

    doddie weir

    stirling moss (4)

    herman wouk (3)

     

    I am not adding him to the table above as of yet due to formatting difficulties with the original post.  I will start including his team with the others next month, but his list is now active. 

    Do you mind!!! I have waited 13 months for my first points and RIP Windsor Davies gave me 5 of them. Yet not mentioned. I feel slighted.

    Hmmmm

     

    More to the point - am I getting a refund on my ticket for next Monday, then. Official line at the mo is that it's postponed, not cancelled.

    In another pool I have him to be dead by the end of the month. If so, then you will get your money back. So think on the bright side.

    @Bentrovato: Currently no #25

     

    OK... that's where we stand for sub institutions. Not all of these are final IE if Brown is your sub and you haven't specified a higher slot you're free to do so, likewise if you have yet to indicate a new sub pick. Those who I've @ ed will need to give me a new name as they do not currently have a full team.

     

    I'll get started on entering Dr T, Spade, GUN, and manuel's teams shortly

    Forgot the subs bit. How dare Mrs C pass on so quick. Can I get Jill Gascoine in there. And if another sub is needed then June Brown.

    High hopes indeed...have you played this game before? :lol:

     

    I think the bonus comes in the fact that you score 15 and everyone else has probably scored the square root of diddly fuck. 

    Are you American? If so, then the irony of my question has really passed you by, unsurprisingly. 

     

    If you are not American, then yes I have played this game before. Last year in fact. The only fucking year it has been run so far.
