Week 49 update
One death this week, three deaths this week, and housekeeping. First up was a death this week, former Chinese president Jiang Zemin: Jiang Zemin obituary | China | The Guardian
Current president XI Jinping looks like Winnie the Pooh. Jiang apparently resembled a toad. It's a tough gig, this being president of China. Jiang died at 96 so he's worth 29 Base Points for @10menwent2mow, with a Solo Shot giving him a total of 79 points.
==================
Now, two deaths I missed. From October, American football man Charley Trippi: Charley Trippi dead: NFL legend and oldest living hall of famer dies aged 100 - Mirror Online
Those are certainly numbers. Trippi died at 100 so he's worth 25 Base Points for @stanton and a Solo Shot for 75 points in total.
==================
The final death to report this week is one which I rather embarrassingly posted about at the time. I blame Deborah James for distracting me. Actor and theme song singer, Dennis Waterman: Dennis Waterman obituary | Register | The Times
Waterman died at 74 so he's worth 51 Base Points for @Glen Sannox, with a Solo Shot giving him 101 points.
