  1. There will be a picture of Nicola Sturgeon in the Rangers dressing room before Scotland descends into civil war over an independence vote.
  2. Had a dream last night I was at a (very staunch) wedding and Paul Gascoigne turned up. He looked much better than he does in reality.
  3. I was out earlier and going past Ibrox while the scarf sellers were setting up. One of them had an orange scarf with KING WILLIAM 1690 No Surrender to the SFA on it. So probably.
  4. Yeah your points are there but I missed tagging you. Sorry.
  5. The arrogance is what gets me here.... Oh I'm so sick of occasional, easily ignored speculation about my (immensely priveleged) lifestyle, I think il make a galaxy brained point about it, at the expense of people who are widely victimised in the sport that gave me everything. I think you're giving their line of thought too much credit.
  6. Week 41 update Is five the most we've had in one weekend? I think so. Perhaps it's cheating though because up first is Rupiah Banda who died in March: Zambia declares mourning after the death of former president | The Independent There was more but then the log-in pop up appeared. He died at 85 so he's worth 40 Base Points with a Solo Shot for @Arabdownunder taking that to 90. I should also add here for everyone, at the end of the year I check every pick to see if I've missed any deaths. If you have obscure ones like this it's very helpful if you keep track and post about them, but I will always make every effort to check every pick by the end of the year and make sure nothing's been missed. ========= Up next this week was Sacheen Littlefeather: Sacheen Littlefeather, actor and activist who declined Marlon Brando’s Oscar, dies aged 75 | US news | The Guardian She died at 75 so she's worth 50 Base Points for @Arabdownunder and @Ned Nederlander, with a Deadly Duo bonus taking that to 75 points each. ========= Up third this week is lawyer and thief Ian Hamilton: Lawyer who removed Stone of Destiny dies aged 97 - BBC News He and a couple of mates stole a rock from a church. Simpler times. Hamilton died at 97 so he's worth 28 Base Points for @sophia and @tamthebam with a Deadly Duo bonus taking that to 53 points each. ========= Up fourth this week is country singer Loretta Lynn: Loretta Lynn death: Country music icon dies aged 90 | The Independent Granny Sanchez is probably a fan. While I'm not a fan of the genre it's a bit sad when an original country star dies, because you reflect on what modern country music is and how inauthentic it is and wonder. Lynn died at 90 so she's worth 35 Base Points for @buddiepaul, @Curmudgeon, @paulathame and @The Hologram. ========= Last - and least - this week is Peter Tobin: Serial killer Peter Tobin dies while serving life sentences in Edinburgh | Scotland | The Guardian What can I reasonably add about a rapist and murderer who led an awful life? Nothing, really. His Wikipedia article has a decent amount of detail about the murders he was convicted of, as well as several others he was linked to. He died at 76 so he's worth 49 Base Points for @Billy Jean King, @gingette, @Lofarl and @The_Craig. @Karpaty Lviv and @ThomCat get a Vice-Captain bonus taking them to 74 points, while @Sergeant Wilson gets a Captain bonus taking him to 98 points. After all of these, the standings now look like this: 1. Bishop Briggs 691 2. Indale Winton 635 3. Ned Nederlander 571 4. chompmyroot 551 5. Billy Jean King 460 6. JustOneCornetto 452 7.

  7. Lots of shit going on this week, so before I do the proper update I'd like to post this review where Kermode mentions Sacheen Littlefeather accepting his Oscar: "Marlon would like to be here, but sadly he's eating a pie."
  8. The Last Jedi Enjoyed it. Expected a lot worse.
  9. "No-one cared who I was til I put on the mask" seems very appropriate.
  10. Nope, that's where the west loop layout joins up coming out of the esses:
  11. I've been round Suzuka many times over the years I don't think I've ever turned into the chicane too early.
  12. Perhaps one day the modern English language will reach teuchterland and they won't need to get so tetchy about the random letters in their place names.
  13. People who are pictured drinking heavily, or said to have drank lots, who suffer no problems with slurred speech, movement, thinking, co-ordination, anything.
