Bugger! She was on my subs bench. Didn't put her in the team in the end because I couldn't find any recent mention of the cancer.

You're not confusing him with Frank Bough, are you?

I thought it was Mr Creosote.

I thought that said his brother's name was Nico Charisse Angeleno Mortuary-Van Nuys. That would have been cool.

Good, because I'm going to one of the gigs. Hope he'll be OK. Is that non-alcoholic real ale, or summat?

Am I allowed to guess Clive Dunn?

Ah but don't DL rules stipulate that a person cannot be included if they are famous solely because they are about to die? You've missed it anyway, so no need to worry.

Christopher Halliwell is only on remand at the moment, but will he make it to his trial?

Biggs, seems to have gone a bit quiet on that front.

Sara Douglass has ovarian cancer, now apparently terminal. I'm not really a fan of fantasy fiction and have never read any DWJ, but it sounds like the sort of thing I loved as a child. I must have just missed her, might seek out one of her books from the library and check it out.

Certainly a fast-moving case, this one.

Police are searching for another body in relation to the above. Some of the papers have named one Tina Pryer from Trowbridge as a possible victim. Can't find any mention of her but apparently she went missing in 2001. Know anything about her, Lardy?

Come on Lardy, you can't fool us. It was you, wasn't it? Living as I do some seven miles from the nearest kebab shop, I can see the convenience of having one's own supply.
