^ The timing, @Death Impends, the timing!

A sure fire pick for the Deathlist now has to be Ian Smith AKA Harold bloody Bishop. Terminal lung cancer, and its one of the rarest and worst prognosis lung cancers too. A gimme for the DL and Drop 40 imo. Sad though as I really liked Harold as a kid.

Sheila Hancock has done an hour long interview with Anita Rani about Christmas. She seems a bit .. her age at the start but warms into the interview and can obviously still talk for an hour and is still working. Says her family keep saying this might be their last Christmas together at her age which "makes her determined to see another one to show them!"

Not saying that's a humiliation, but the Thurso keepers been signed up to Witness Relocation...

The euthanasia second reading passed with a majority of 55 despite projections from the forum Nostradamus.

@Gooseberry Crumble is going to be gutted. Star of the first proper Twilight Zone episode.

I've been allowed to see the first draft of the 2025 list. Some sensible picks ruined by the wacky choice of Jimmy Carter.

Surely you can't be serious.

I did yesterday ^ Especially Charizard.

Signs you have spent too many years on DL. Thinking "David H Murdoch isn't really DLy" for a good ten seconds before twigging there was a rather more famous Murdoch.

Sold something like 45 million books worldwide. She's massive. It's just a matter of Cmme taste as while she had success in the 90s, she became far better known in the noughties, like a few picks they've avoided.

Oh a sub, sorry - Noam Chomsky, thanks.

Charizard. Wait, no, wrong thread. They need to bring back Davey Attenborough. Sophie Kinsella, David Irving, Adrian Sutton and David Lynch would make good debuts. Seconding the Valli call.

Best wishes and my deepest sympathy, Drol.
