Octopus of Odstock 2,186 Posted March 2, 2006 Couldn't see it listed but did anyone see that Charlie Wayman former Newcastle United striker also died this week at the age of 84 ? Well, as you've mentioned it, yes, and so has Hungarian footballer Ferenc Bene, who scored 3 goals in the 1966 World Cup. Wayman also played for Southampton, so that's two dead players in two days for them. Firstly, thanks for the birthday mentions. Now, you could argue that this lady should be a "Not famous.. but", but as she was my secret weapon for my 2007 DDP as I felt no-one would choose her if she was still living, I'll put her down here: Georgina Battiscombe I noticed her when The Times announced her 100th birthday in November & I thought... mmm.. good possibility here as not on Genarians, famous enough for Times Birthdays, definitely alive AND ancient. Shame she had to go in February then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,186 Posted March 2, 2006 The military leader of Islamic Jihad, Khaled Al-Dahduh in an explosion. Maybe not famous per se, but a death that might have repurcussions in that region. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shame she had to go in February then. Hiding candidates from DL??? How horrible! Actually, I have one or two that aren't on Genarians up my sleeve, although I let Hapsburg and Osman out, so I don't feel so bad. By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the intelligent and informative poster that you are! Unfortuneately, there aren't too many sexy people born on your birthday OOO... Although I will admit that you've got one lucky one: Catherine Bach aka the original Daisy Dukes: That's not the best picture, but I'm sure some wandering DL will find one that conveys the hotness that is Daisy Dukes. Oh, and if you're not a guy, I guess you can ignore that then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,186 Posted March 2, 2006 Hiding candidates from DL??? How horrible! Although I will admit that you've got one lucky one: Catherine Bach aka the original Daisy Dukes: Yes, I know. It's shameful. However, there's not many I have up my sleeve now. As for my birthday, it is a struggle. There's a few for the ladies like Marc-Paul Gosselaar, but all the most notable ones, Glenn Miller, David Niven, Yitzhak Rabin are dead. From a DL point of view, Harry Belafonte is the best one, though Ron Howard & "Face" from the A Team do their best too. However I did find: Cara Buono, 32 today & Alicia Leigh Willis, 28 Don't ask me who they are, but some people here will not be too worried about that!
