Well, at that age, he might consider it an affair, while she thinks of it as senility.

Gareth Dunn, blogger of "chemotionally unstable" and Death By Numbers pick for me last year, already dead since October 2018 - but at least he made it through the replacement period so it was technically correct: https://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/health/10k-run-to-celebrate-life-of-inspirational-leeds-man-who-raised-100-000-before-cancer-death-aged-27-1-9662648

Next update: The new hits, as far as I am aware: Mike Willesee, Manohar Parrikar, Edmund Capon, Samantha McConnell Hmm, that's actually less than I thought. If I see it correctly, nobody picked Dick Dale, nor Angus Sinclair, nor Jan-Michael Vincent, etc... However, Bernice McCabe got her belated obit. As such, the result is this: Rank Team name Points 1 GCReptile 628 2 Phantom of the Midway 624 3 Cpt Chorizo 574 4 Devon Death Trip 573 5 Joey Russ 558 6 Clorox Bleachman 548 7 Sir Creep 478 8 drol 477 9 msc 464 10 Death Impends 461 11 Banana 446 12 Skinny Kiltrunner 412 13 Grim Up North 289 14 YoungWillz 268 15 Book 129 16 Yorkshire Banker 124 17 Fixed Business 84 18 Prophet 83 19 markb4 81 20 Deathray 73 20 Gooseberry Crumble 73 20 John Key 73 23 Grave Danger 56 24 theoldlady 49 24 The mad hatter 49 26 The old crem 35 27 Bibliogryphon 0 27 The Unknown Man 0 27 The Quim Reaper 0 27 Pedro 67 0 Ahem, yes I am leading after three hits in this update. However, I previously said that I will not use the replacement period. So I am not going to lead after July. Feel free to point out any mistakes or omissions! Especially those UK-centric celebrities I tend to miss. Edit: Baroness Warnock for the next update

This is going to be my best cup result ever, I think.

Excellent pick, congratulations.

I guess if they're really bored they'll have the Michael Gielen obit soon.
