    Whenever I hear about a death, I come straight here.
    We try and keep a finger on the pulse.

    How about Stevo?
    Is this Speshlady or someone else who's due to be getting a restraining order soon :P

    Afternoon peeps, I'm off to Welshland in a few hours for my gravity double bill. May not be posting here quite as much till I get home on Friday night, assuming I am still alive afterwards :mrgreen:

  • Maybe because this is the 'Celebrity' death pool, and not a 'random person from history' death pool
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    I'm sure it's been said before - this is a game not a running commentary of the dead.

    Best known for his spiritual poems connecting the experiences of daily life to larger forces.....really, he didn't see the grim reaper coming did he.

    An almost definite in the celebrity death pool, already half way in seems to have made a miraculous recovery! He even went on tour instead of having treatment so he could go out in style.

    Acker Bilk. The only clarinettist I can name but also rhyming slang for cow juice. Quite sad about this one because his son was in the same year as me at school.

    His full name was Bernard Stanley Bilk, Acker was local dialect for mate.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
