[Misc] WTBF no noteworthy RIP today!

[Motogull]

Oh come on. It is not crimbo without a decent 'closed account'.

Was it too much to ask that one of Barlow, Johnson, Shepherd, Putin or Holmes didn't check out today?

Ruined my day that has.

25th December seems to be a bad day for cricketers but not dictators

What a strange thread.

I'm sorry the day hasn't lived up to your expectations.

I think it was very tongue in cheek post bordering on weird, (probably a little inappropriate) gallows humour - I wouldn’t take it too seriously tbh.

Given what usually happens on Boxing Day to English cricketers, the day after doesn’t usually improve things

Very sad, he was a great guy and also stood for election in the Hove constituency in 2005 for the Silent Majority Party.

"Noteworthy" R.I.P's are a rarity on NSC at the best of times! obscure one's all too common, but noteworthy?

Putin I get, but the rest of your wishlist seems unnecessarily harsh…?

 

[Motogull]

A sad one that. Never heard of him but he seems a decent chap. I hope he didn't suffer. Has to make future crimbos difficult for the loved ones.

We usually have a good train/plane/motorway crash around Christmas.
Disappointing so far.

IDF giving it a go with a 200+ children and women today. Yet to find out if any are significant.

Bill Granger. Aussie chef. Only 54. Got several of his cookbooks, some good stuff in them. Shame.
