  1. Jasmin Paris' achievement has even made the papers.
  2. What's the problem? Sounds allwhite to me.

    Sven-Göran Eriksson

    This shirt?
  4. I'm trying to figure out who this statue looks like. Torn between Frank Skinner & Stan Laurel. Not Harry Kane though. (Also, is he waiting for a train?)
  5. Claude Wolff in the Express

    Account written by Adrian Chiles of the death of his father (9-3-24), and how he reacted (is reacting).

    Room 101

    Prime video is pretty poor all round now, browsing, it seems half the offerings are Rent/Buy, from a partner service (e.g. Paramount, which is an additional fee), or on FreeVee (with ads). But sticking ads in actual Prime Video output and offering an "ad free" experience for another £3/month (or additional 33% if you will!) is beyond shoddy. But having lived through what they did with Amazon Music, I'm not in the least surprised.
  10. I see the Cons are after the 13 year old vote I honestly thought it was a parody account at first.

    Everything Amazon does leads to a worse user-experience. I had a delivery due yesterday; tracking informs me its due before 9pm. Time was you had a fixed three/four hour delivery window, then that changed to a flexible ever-changing 3-to-4 hour (ish) window. Now its "sometime today". Even the oft-criticised Evri gives better information than that,

    Alex Higgins (And Snooker)

    That'd be the booze & drugs.

    What are you drinking?

    Having been decidedly unwell for a while and consequently no appetite for booze, rather fortunately I had recovered enough yesterday to (over) indulge in the black stuff myself. First decent drink in 6 weeks.

    That Telegraph obit reveals Dugdale's date of birth to be 25-3-1941, so missed the birthday party-pooper bonus by a week (still, she had St. Paddy's Day).

    Has garnered a fair bit of press recently with the film Baltimore about to be released, with the Irish Independent and The Guardian running features recently.

    To quote from the rules... www.pressreader.com/uk if it can be used to prove the existence of a print obituary in any of the sources mentioned above. Guardian Weekly isn't one of the sources mentioned above, so I'd say on that basis, it doesn't count.

    There's also a The Italian Job connection Jones wrote the music.

    Steve Smith has been updated to the footballer rather than the drummer. Point me in the direction of a QO if you see one!

    Dementia afflicted footballers

    I see it. I don't know how I missed that not only during the initial sweep, but also the review! Just don't tell him.

    Lol at DDP entry being listed as the Journey drummer!

    Derby Dead Pool 2024

    This suggestion has merit, though I think - just because it's what I've always done - I'd spell with lower case but still use that 'd' for indexing purposes (which is why I was looking for de Gaulle under D).

    As @Grim Up North said previously, so much inconsistency, its a bit late in the day to define the rules.

    Derby Dead Pool 2024

    I wasn't doubting it, just wondering at the apparent inconsistency.
