Octopus of Odstock 2,186 Posted February 23, 2013 Zheng Cao, opera singer and one-time lover of Troy Donahue has died after a long fight against cancer. I was aware of her fight against the disease, but thought UK obit chances were a bit too risky. Very Ill Turned Very Dead didn't, and if Cao does get the UK Obit, then they will move into 2nd in the DDP if I've done my maths right.

Dead Well done, DDT. I think we have competition going on now... Cheers, TMIB - it's about time my extensive knowledge of opera paid dividends . I don't think there will be much competition from me this year. I am yesterday's man; forever destined to grace the circuit while dining out on past glories, a bit like a deadpooling equivalent of a post millennium Steve Davis.
