The EU Referendum Hokey Cokey
Bibliogryphon replied to YoungWillz's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
OK looks like I am in a minority here but I think that the UK is better off being part of the EU are leading it towards a place where it actually functions as it is meant to rather than being an overblown beast that is seen as interfering in everyday lives. Cameron is hopeless. His renegotiation was pathetic he asked for nothing and got slightly less. If Remain win it will be in spite of Cameron not because of Cameron. There is also no way he should have let the Leave ministers stay in post. He is storing up trouble for the future. However I am very concerned that Farage has today stated that if the people get it 'wrong' he will want to ask the question again. No accepting the democratic will of the people here. I am voting in because Britain makes a better Europe, we are leaders not quitters. -

Authors Last A Long Time, But....
Bibliogryphon replied to maryportfuncity's topic in DeathList Forum
Looks like this is true and Guardian will probably have something later in the day or tomorrow. Unique points for me on DDP. -
I now have six fully verified teams which have been PM'd to be. The point about PMing me is that you will be able to keep your really good picks to yourself right up until the game goes live. (MK) I must say the standard has been high and I have only had to reject one pick. Waiting for the last minute rush

OK Back in the Saddle now. Tooting only counts as a resignation, so is worth 10 points but as Sadiq Khan is not defecting you don't run the risk of losing five of them. All three players who scored for Tooting also scored for Michael Meacher so there are only three possible combination of scores 40 Points RockHopperPenguin The Engineer Voice of Young Maryport 30 Points Bibliogryphon Shaun of the Dead Rotton Ali Time Rover and Out Still to Score Young Willz DeathRay Sir Creep Handrejka Msc Phantom MPFC Manuel

Authors Last A Long Time, But....
Bibliogryphon replied to maryportfuncity's topic in DeathList Forum
Yeh particularly children's authors here are a few more who have reached a grand old age. Shirley Hughes who wrote the Alfie books born 1927 Nicolas Fisk (aka David Higgenbottom) author of Kids sci-fi books like Grinny, Trillions and Starstormers born 1923 Eric Carle (The Very Hungry Caterpillar) born 1929 No health information about any of these but just by age alone they are worthy of consideration. Report of the death of Nicholas Fisk at 92. https://twitter.com/LCecilLitAgency/status/729985447397609472 Awaiting news reports/qo for BiblioG's DDP team. Is he dead or not? Good question. Those who should be in the know on Twitter say he is, but there's been no word from any news sources as yet. At this point, he's this year's Judy Carne. I'm giving it until Monday night for some form of report to appear, if not, I'll take him off the round up. The age given in the tweet is 94. He is actually 92. But why post this otherwise. If this were true I would expect the Guardian or Telegraph to be all over it. -

I am currently in the Business lounge at Istanbul airport. In a couple of hours I will be boarding a plane to Guangzhou. I should be back in action sometime around the 17th when I will let any of you who have entered the bingo know if any of your selection are ineligible. So far I'm impressed. Hope no big deaths occur and play nice. -
This could cause a massive disruption to this game.

Margot Honecker being reported dead by wiki although the source is in Spanish. Unique hit for someone.

Want to have a go at this. Need to be on the ball for this one.

Perhaps, more tragically he may have forgotten how many improbably gorgeous women he shagged! My brother had a Leicester Subbuteo team in the seventies. One day I heard him complain that the cat has sat on Frank Wothington.

I have picked topics close to me. I did try to have some that weren't too Anglocentric but even International cricket is a bit English. Who knows what the winner will choose?

I was aware of the Ogmore by-election but as it didn't impact the game I didn't mention it. No result yet from London?
