| Sports broadcaster Bob Wilson is still alive, aged 82. I'd completely forgotten about him until it was reported this week that his wife had died. I was sure I remembered him dying years ago but must be confusing him with someone else.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Wilson_(footballer,_born_1941)
I also didn't realise he'd been a footballer in his younger days. But then there'll be young people today who don't know that Gary Lineker sold crisps was once a famous footballer. |

| I don’t mean that nastily btw.
I was sent a really funny link to a mad American conspiracy theory earlier - that she’s already dead, having performed a DIY abortion with a coat hanger which went wrong, and that her funeral can’t be arranged until the British government has released the money for it in a funding package combining that with the cost of William’s wedding to Rose Hanbury.
As conspiracy theories go, it combines the perfect blend of paranoia and total certainty that the world outside the USA is obviously governed by American laws and norms. I sort of love the idea that there’s someone in Oklahoma who thought that all made perfect sense now that the Supreme Court has quashed abortion access, and that she can’t be buried because the Dems and Republicans are still duking it out over a combined funding package.
Seeing the thread in the sidebar put me in mind of it. |

| I think I post this at least once a year, but Syd Little is still still alive.
I'm sure he died, or was announced as dying, in about 1996. |
