I have found the death announcements page and it is indeed freely available, but not through the link.  It isn't listed in the contents either so I searched "death announcements" and found it that way.   So as it's a bit round the houses to get there, a copy/paste would be appreciated in future.  It's usually only a couple of lines so not a big ask.

 

Spoke too soon!  Clicking on an entry doesn't expand it.  It just takes you to the page I posted upthread.

Think msc has the answer. Ah, the internet, where you can get access to anything and everything, as long as you look at stuff with the right browser, the right Government, managing or allowing cookies, etc etc etc.

Did it take him 45 minutes? Still at least there was a punch line on this occasion.

Longlist cleaning... the father of Australian tennis star Mark Phillipoussis, Nick, died late last year. He's list of the lost for the DDP because I put him on my B-team years ago:

He was a serial sexual molester and suffered a stroke in jail, fell into a coma, and stayed there for years until he died.

One of Cristiano Ronaldo's daughters is reportedly hospitalized for an appendix operation, assuming it didn't burst it shouldn't be life threatening and recovery should take a week or two, maybe more since Ronaldo's daughters are all very young compared to when my brother had his appendix taken out during his teens. Additionally, this news comes a year after Ronaldo lost his son.

Unluckiest silver spoon ever.  His parents are worth $19B.  I was surveying at Dan Gilbert’s new home the past couple weeks in Franklin, MI.
