    World's Oldest

    Oldest in Britain say Bessie Camm and they are usually very reliable.Apparently Bessie was William Hague`s childhood nurse.You learn something new everyday.Incredible she made 112 after that trauma!

    Shaun`s Death By Numbers 2016I

    I did but deleted the post as I used the second from last scoreboard to calculate some of the latest hits so missed a few picks out.The issue I have with the technology is that I have google chrome and internet explorer.Exlplorer can copy and paste which saves me quite a lot of counting whereas chrome does not allow me to copy and paste meaning I have to do multiple tabs which is painstakingly long.Do not know why explorer is playing up or why chrome won`t let me copy and paste.I am graduating from uni tomorrow so have been busy with preparations for that but on Thursday I will take the PC to the shop to sort out.If all else fails I will use the masterlist one night after a few coffees to catch up.Normal service shall resume soon.

    Paul Gascoigne

    I agree with Toast.A fall one of these days could prove fatal for old Gazza.Clearly hitting his head a lot.Always said I wouldn`t be surprised if he topped himself.Didn`t he once so that he wanted to die in some ways as it would mean an end to the suffering?

    So can I get this straight. If I pick 50 people, can I keep them for the duration? Or do they all get swapped around whenever someone dies? Whenever someone dies a new round is triggered.You can then change all your picks none of your picks or anything in between.Just let me know after someone conks it if you want to change anything or withdraw your team!

    Ok the likes on Toast`s post have spoken.Duplicates are allowed but you will only get a point for them whereas unique picks will give you two points!

    Jeremy Corbyn

    :Corbyn`s older brother doesn`t look a picture of health either.

    Jeremy Corbyn

    Corbyn does seem very stressed of late understandably.Not good for a man his age.Both his parents died in their early seventies so not great longevity genes.I think John McDonnell is more at risk.He seems to be doing the difficult work for Jezza and will run his re-election campaign when he inevitably faces a leadership challenge.He had a heart attack three years ago so may push himself too far.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2017

    Just watching Blair on BBC news.Voice sounds quite croaky and strained..Also Hywel Williams Mp and Westminster leader of Plaid cymru sounded like Nick Robinson after his surgery when I saw him speaking in parliament earlier.He looks a lot older than 63 also.

    Political Frailty

    Yeah he looks a funny colour now.Quite a few parliamentary fatties hanging around from the Commons past and present :Jim Prior John Prescott Roy Hattersley Nicholas Soames Eric Pickles Mike Gapes Diane Abbott Tom Watson Tony Baldry and Dave Anderson to name a few.Of course old Nigel Lawson was a former fatty before he famously lost loads of weight in the 90`s.

    João Havelange

    Stable just means not likely to die imminently in his case.Wasn`t Muhammad Ali "stable" a day or two before he died? Havelange has had a long history of breathing problems.If he gets over this case of pneumonia it will just re occur in the not too distant future. He is 100 years old has had severe arthritis a history of respiratory issues.Has also had heart problems in the past and now has pneumonia.Not looking good.

    Pierre Cardin

    Aye, and his kids have bought him a shirt! I don`t think he has kids.Isn`t he a homosexual bachelor or am I confusing him with someone else?
