I thought the DDP total last year was 312? So if we are at hit 297 surely there are only 16 hits to go.

Good job someone was paying attention! 

 

You are correct; I think I misread last year's total as 317.

So yeah, you're not done with me as DDP co-host yet. No one offered to take up the mantle, but doing slimmer obits has made things considerably easier and pretty much "TMIB redux"-proofed the front page.

 

In fact I don't think there will be any changes for next year, rule or personnel wise, outside of acknowledging that The Times is a .com website now rather than .co.uk. The DDP 2025 thread and launch will be coming over the weekend.

Thanks for all you do. I have already begun whittling down my long list for 2025.

Hmm.

 

Keeping the Yahoo! obits then?

 

Asking for a colleague.;)

Yes. The Yahoo issue seems to have sorted itself out since those local Oklahoma papers and whatnot can't seem to be UK-ified anymore.
