Gooseberry Crumble 5,356 Posted April 25, 2021 https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/dec/17/alanna-knight-obituary @CaptainChorizo I was starting to sort out my list of names for this years Windycity pool when I discovered that in December last year Scottish crime novelist Alanna Knight , a significant figure in the tartan noir genre and one of the names in this current pool has died with a qualifying obituary in The Guardian. I do believe this late discovery may well put me in the top ten in this pool! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wormfarmer 429 Posted April 30, 2021 Before you do your final update, I had Sylvain Sylvain at the 140 spot, and that is the exact number of points I am missing compared to my scoring at home. But yes, I still suck. Nowhere to go but up next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
