    The Hare's Death Pool

    eJoey what does the headline say? I was presenting the evidence that my picks were unlucky not awful. YW has my 2017 team. DBAD I'm very tired and stressed and I have finals today. Apologies Good luck. Probably should go and revise.

    Room Lovely, Look You.

    I must admit I am very lucky. My work allows me to visit places that I would never be able to afford to go under my own steam including China, Japan, America, India and numerous European cities. I am currently staying in a lakeside resort in Ethiopia. Admittedly I am spending most of the day in a conference but it is very beautiful.

    Scavenger Hunt Bingo Deadpool

    Ladies and Gentlemen, seriously no-one picked Jim Prior. I thought that the house of Lords team would be dropping like flies but you my dear players seem to have blessed your selections with immortality.

    The Hartlepool Deadlypool

    I think the boxing day opening is why I have never played this game. What is the closing date for entries?

    Ian Brady

    Josef Fritzl, Thomas Mair, Anders Breivik, Ian Watkins, Ian Huntley, Rolf Harris, Dennis Nilsen... And what did Norman Tebbit do that was so bad? Did he do anything worse than what the IRA did in the 80s? I like Tebbit seems a decent enough bloke.An opinionated old buffer but in my eyes he has a grumpy old uncle appeal like Tony Benn Dennis Skinner and Bill Cash. You weren't there, man, you had to be there to understand..... His reputation as Thatcher's attack dog was something he never shied away from.

    World's Oldest

    Aye, doubtless a few Deathracers share your interest. It's definitely happened a while back that the world's oldest person has lost the title without having to die, but - surely - she's nailed on to lose it in the traditional way and generate world wide news in doing so. The former would only happen through a person being discovered that is older than them? In that case, they were never actually the world's oldest person in the first place. No but they are recognised as the World's oldest person and get a visit from the ghost of Norris McWhirter or summit.

    Seen Any Good Films Lately?

    Watched two films on the plane Ab Fab movie bit weird as it almost looks like a celebration of what it is meant to be parodying. Kathy Burke is brilliant though and then I watched the animated film Kubo and the Two Strings trying to get the feel of a Ghibli movie but with stop motion animation, nice try, quite emotional but over the end credits you get Regina Spektor singing While My Guitar Gently Weeps.........?????????

    The 2Nd Crowdsourced Deathlist (2017 Edition)

    The reason that the favs may not be getting much traction is that the early lists are those that have been established for some time. Mine was drafted in the summer. Not a fan of the last minute terminal chasing. That is for the Deathrace this is for the whole year.
