DL Status Updates: Statements, Obsevations & Verbal Tennis

OK So this is a work trip but the factories we are visiting don't work at weekends. This was my view yesterday lunchtime. -
The Final scoreboard 70 Points RockHopperPenguin The Engineer Voice of Young Maryport Time 60 Points Bibliogryphon Shaun of the Dead Rotton Ali The Dead Cow 50 Points MPFC Deathray Rover and Out 40 Points Handrejka Msc Manuel 30 Points Young Willz Sir Creep Phantom Congrats to our four joint winners RockHopperPenguin, The Engineer, Voice of Young Maryport, & Time. With only six hits on the board the winners amassed their total with Meacher & Kaufman and one of either Goldmith or Khan none of the winners got Cameron or Hunt. However Theresa curtailing of the competition has robbed us of the joy when her majority finally diminishes. I suspect in the next parliament this will be more difficult as many elderly (or fat) MPs are quitting early (although not Skinner or Clarke) and there will probably not be the cliff edge approaching if there is a significant Tory majority. I will open a new thread for By-Election Bingo (2017-22) Thanks for playing everyone.

That is taking research for A-level politics a bit too far. -

What this might do is give the voters a horrid vision of the next five years and the missing 30% might get up and vote for someone who isn't a Tory. However the Tory gains do seem to have been bought with UKIP votes. -
I am currently in Thailand and I am surprised and impressed at how seriously the whole nation takes the mourning of the late king. In the hotel I am staying in there is a shrine to him, there was one in the factory I visited today and there are billboards by the side of the road, and giant TV screens at the airport all carrying sombre pictures of him. The factory I am auditing at with a colleague who was here last year and she said everyone in the factory wore lime green corporate polo shirts but when they met us at the airport yesterday the factory rep was wearing a black corporate polo shirt. She explained that the parent company have replaced the entire workforce's polo shirts for the whole period of mourning (however they have also just changed the company name so it might be a good excuse to get rid of all the one with the old name on). I was going to take a picture of the shrine in the hotel but didn't want to seem disrespectful. When the Queen goes we will have a fortnight of wall to wall news coverage, paperboys will have to knock on the door to devliver the Mail on Sunday because of the sheer weight of colour supplements and then about a month after the funeral the Daily Mirror will run the first Queen was a bit cross and hated (............. ) (insert name of relative or public figure here) hatchet job and then we will all get a bit jolly about the impending coronation. If Theresa May does win in June she might want to think about this cycle of national 'coming together' and schedule it in for maybe early 2021.

Isn't it sad when Pop Stars end up looking like they should be running a small town hardware store?

From said Wikipedia article In mid-1981, Oakey and Catherall commenced a long-term relationship that lasted until the end of the decade. Oakey and Catherall split amicably in 1990, remaining friends and colleagues. Contrary to press stories, they never married.

I have just arrived in Thailand for a weeks auditing. It would be typical for a flurry of deaths to occur. I would have posted about my flights but it doesn't feel the same without @Cat O'Falk here. -
At least there will be hospitals...

MMMP Form Guide #19 Veteran Character Actor Bernard Hepton who has his own secret army of fans who are plotting for inclusion in the 2018 Deathlist but his expression seems to suggest an early exit would come as a surprise.
