    By-Election Bingo 2017-22

    That was two elections ago now. No Galloway at the last election, and her majority shot upwards (which was well after her first bout of controversies). Suggests the sorry voters of Bradford West like her. And it's not possible to be as bad as George Galloway. Even the likes of Nicholas Soames look good when compared to Rula's cat.

    Derby Dead Pool 2017

    Ricketts will piss an obit, it's just he's almost certainly a late 2018/early 2019 pick at this point. As for Rico, wrestlers, eh? When they go "I am ill", skeptical. It's when others guy "X is ill" one pays attention. So, Superstar says he is ill, and has since 2010. The doctors said Snuka was ill. Yet I still thought he was taking the piss. Shows what I know! I've never picked a winning wrestler, even when I knew they're gold, like Smith Hart, or Mulligan. That Nick Bockwinkel not getting an obit really astounded me.

    Do You Actually Research?

    Was watching random shit on Channel 5 a few weeks ago, when one of the talking heads on a documentary was actually on my shortlist at one point last year! I'd turned her down early on due to obit concerns, and here she was talking about snogging a famous guy! Feck it, critical research failure, I thought. Went to look her up. In remission for 7 months. Phew! Only I've just discovered she's relapsed, so man, lots of swearing from Glasgow might be incoming soon!

  16. Some of those facts were uncovered by me earlier this afternoon, after many hours of research down at the Bodleian, with a quick run over to the Cornell Library to double check them.
