I presume DDT knew this was fake news and took the opportunity to throw a few Cup hopefuls off the scent.:sherlock:

Well, I guess you're right about all of you questioning whether Vera Lynn is actually ill or not. So is this basically another hoax or is she really gravely ill and we just don't have confirmation yet.

Does that mean you'll be cancelling your vote on the 2nd death thread?

Until we get a more reliable source saying so, then yes unfortunately...

That's cheating and immoral. :P

If that's really the wrong thing to say on this site, should I change my mind and say no or should I wait until after our 2nd hit and try to guess the 3rd hit correctly. I just want to do better in the future and not say the wrong things on this site.

Saying the 'wrong things' on this site is positively encouraged.

Now, Michael Jackson. Did he spit or swallow?

Seems to be a recent interview

 

No mention of her impending death or even ill health - just looking forward to her 102nd birthday which is on 20th March. 

She has now got teeth just like the Queen mum used to have.

Mellow Yellow, I think.

I just stumbled upon a message she recorded for the 75th anniversary of D-day. 

 

She doesn't sound so well unfortunately. Especially compared to a few years ago.

Can't say I've followed all the links since I last linked to an interview with her over two years ago but...

 

Her big brother was still alive then. Any mentions of him recently?

Vera Lynns rare public appearance also covered in the Daily Mail. 

Looking at her and a photo from last September she has aged dramatically in the last 10 months or so, obviously on the decline and her legs are really swollen, sadly she doesn’t look a well women not surprising at 102. I doubt she will see 2021, a must for next year, will be a sad day when she goes.

Yes, she looks awful and will be a miracle if she makes it to 2020. She is 102 so it won't be a sad day.

So things are becoming clearer.

I know we'll meet again some time in 2019.'

 

Not sure it scans.:unsure:
