Would you believe I googled Beckenbauer when I was compiling my list but saw that he was in his 70s and thought he'd still have a few years in him. Gutted when I heard the bollox kicked the bucket a week later.
He still managed to Kick the Bucket ~ ~ Went out with his boots on ! !

The horrible feeling when something wins at 9/1 and you had looked at it and not stuck a line on :sick:

In a right death pool of course each person gets a weighing. For example you subtract their age from a hundred and get that many points. Age 75 is points, age 97 is 3 points etc etc

Perhaps Gemma will give her take on it.

Another deviant who's going straight down to hell :)
Yep, I was given the heads up on that lad a few years back by a fellow who was active in the London scene. An interesting fellow, he was holed up on a campsite in France with the suggestion that he had ripped some other crooks off and they were not best pleased.

I used to see him in Schull with a stall in a farmers market and i observed from a distance all the people like myself who were observing from a distance Ian Bailey .
he was aware everyone knew he was the center of attention and i did not think it upset him .
it was interesting how everyone was conscious he was there but by silent agreement he had his freedom to do his thing .
west cork is a very different place and its inhabitants have a very varied past and there is i suppose the highest concentration of English expats in the country and they are made welcome amongst all the other expats .
he would not have lasted a day in Dublin.

Gemma reckons he was just eccentric. The Guards probably framed him.

RIP to the man.

Except he may not have done it, some believe and put forward a good case that it was his son.

Most do, but the other side made a strong case.

I would say that most fathers would take the fall for their son.

Will Alexei Navalny be sorely missed by anyone here?

Kevin Keegan must be long in the tooth now. Can’t have a lot of time left.

Jimmy Carter hits a 100 in October if he can cling on. Old US President ever.
