Victim beaten to death by nine men in tuxedos.

You are not being discriminated against solely because you have not procreated. If you think you are then you have some sort of complex. Parents with Prams car parks are there for parents with small children and prams that the have to load/unload, similar to disabled/wheelchair access car parks. If you ever have to load/unload a pram, shopping, small child and potentially another one that's as mobile as a greased pig, the you'd know why these car parks are required. Try to load/unload in a normal-sized spot, you risk destroying not only you car, but both cars on either side. Unloading handicapped adults, who likely consent to the whole idea and have some sense of decorum, would be a walk in the park compared to juggling shopping bags, kids, crying child, shopping trolley, pram, headache, sleep deprivation, smelly nappies, and any other number of things -- all happening simultaneously... And you're whinging because you want to park your big-arsed car in a spot set aside for parent with prams, just because you're too damn lazy to walk an extra few yards? If parking in normal spot makes you grit your teeth with frustration and rage, then I'd say you have a serious problem. Manifesting itself as rage against parents with prams is probably the thin end of the wedge. It sounds like you either need some pills from the Doctor or a serious voltage applied daily. Probably anally. You're nearly right. A whiney two year old can be strapped in to his/her car seat/pram and ignored. Takes a bit of effort some days (the ignoring that is) but it can be done quite easily. If it's that much of an effort leave the little buggers at home with partner/grand parent/friend and go to the shops by yourself. Add eighty years to that scenario and it's a completely different kettle of fish. A two year old falls getting out of the car, you pick him up, give him a cuddle, buy him an icecream. Elderly father falls getting out of the car, you get help picking him up, ignore protestations that everything's fine, visit the GP, get refered to the hospital for xrays. All in all a fun day out for everyone. Having done both, I wouldn't seriously compare them. Give me the whiney two year old any day. At least you get ice cream. Agreed. Sort of. Anyway, my point being, both scenarios are infinitely worse than someone who considers it frustrating and rages against being "banished to the back of the car park" and "excluded from the bigger car park spots." Moosey asked if he was being unreasonable about it. Those are the reasons Moosey, you work it out. Peter Falk is suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. Ignoring all of the above, I'd like to say welcome back to DeathList, Moosey. I hope you stick around.

Well done to Meet Your Maker AKA Football Fan, who has scored three DDP hits in one day; Kennedy, Al-Hakin and Dunne.

Obviously Herbert Lom.

His health has deteriorated and he is back in hospital after a setback in his cancer treatment. Abdulaziz Hakim died this morning. He was the last survivor of eight brothers, the other seven were all killed by Saddam Hussain's henchmen.

Labour MSP Dr Richard Simpson (who worked in prostate disease research before becoming a politician) has said that Abdelbaset Al-megrahi may live for "many more months". Tory MSPs are claiming that "the most recent medical consensus was Megrahi would live eight months".

No Wikipedia article though, which means one that sticks would have to be created. Two years later he still hasn't got a Wikipedia page, which is a shame. I suppose there wouldn't be any point in mentioning that his health has deteriorated recently, he's undergone further cancer surgery and he's just missed a crucial Olympic Committee meeting...

My theme team didn't have a Canadian - and it got ok'd. So I'm assuming no. Windsor's correct. You don't need to have a Canadian on the Theme Team, which is why the "Canadian Bonus" starts on the first hit there. I was just wondering if can enter the competition? If so what is the latest date I can mail you my list (or am I to late)? how many names should there be on this list? An to what mail adress should I mail it? There are 49 previous pages on this thread I don't have the time to check them all out for this information. I worry about CP's blood pressure at this busy time, so I'll answer for him. Vaagheid (I never did like Ear of Van Gogh, Vaagheid is much better), Rather than read this entire thread, have a look at the rules on CPDP page. Keeping it brief, you need to pick two teams of ten people, one main team and one theme team - e.g Dutch Politicians. All of your picks must have a Wikipedia page. You can enter up until 31.08.09. The email address to send the entry to is on the CPDP page.

More Mugabe health gossip.

Bob Dylan to become voice of sat-nav systems No Direction Home?

Premier League referee Mark Halsey, 48, has been diagnosed with cancer of the lymph nodes.

...here we go again! What, you mean you wouldn't be completely and utterly shocked to the core if you were to find out that the above suggestion might not be entirely true?? No need to brace yourself for this earth shattering revelation then : "We can tell you that Bernie Madoff is not terminally ill and has not been diagnosed with cancer," the Prisons Bureau said in an emailed statement.

Yes, we were very lucky from what I've heard. I have watched Exeter at Carlisle before, but was living in Glasgow at the time, so I can't claim to have ever done the 750 mile round trip. Hopefully I'll go again one day and then afterwards take in the bright lights of Botchergate, an experience never to be forgotten.

You're right MPFC, I don’t think there has ever been a recorded case in the UK prison system of one female inmate murdering another. It's all handbags normally, kettles full of boiling water thown about, razor blades in the food, nasty but not normally fatal. It's not exactly common is male prisons either. Another inmate worthy of consideration would be Brian Shivers, 44, a Real IRA type person who is awaiting trial for allegedly shooting a couple of soliders in Antrim earlier this year. His lawyers tried to stop judges from detaining him in custody, saying that the poor lamb suffers from cystic fibrosis and his life would be at risk if he was kept in a confined enviroment, especially if he was exposed to the swine flu virus. The average life expectancy for cystic fibrosis suffers is well below forty and it is very rare for sufferers to live much past the age of 50. So he's done very well to get this far, especially if he really was healthy enough to open fire on an army barracks. He should suffer from Parkinson's with a surname like that...

Rumoured to be suffering from pancreatic cancer...

Not dead, just "clinically insane" and suffering from delusion and paranoia. She should cheer up a bit, she's served nearly a quarter of her sentence already.

His health has deteriorated and he is back in hospital after a setback in his cancer treatment.

Session musician Larry Knechtel has died. A multi instrumentalist, he played the piano on Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water", lead guitar on Bread's "Guitar Man" and bass on The Byrd's "Mr Tamborine Man".

The Welsh language poet Dic Jones has died at the age of 75. He was also the Archdruid of Wales and a farmer.

Aldershot Town chairman John McGinty is suffering from cancer, which has spread despite an intensive bout of chemotherapy.

TV Legend Denis Norden was rushed to hospital yesterday after falling seriously ill at home.

Jack Klugman is recovering from a nasty fall.

Yes, definitely people who are going to die of natural causes, not execution. Also, straying slightly off topic, does anyone know what happened to Derek Bentley's partner in crime Christopher Craig, who only escaped the death penalty in 1952 by virtue of his youth? One more thing, not terribly famous murderer James Willis, 91, from Georgia was first jailed in 1936 and has spent 67 of the last 73 years in prison.

Good luck to her, a helpless victim of IAAF incompetence. I don't think she looks any more manly than Fatima Whitbread. Link - for anyone who doesn't know what the hell we're talking about.

Not looking good for Mary Travers. A good candidate for the 2010 DL?
