Okay. Let's try again. Last year was a total washout for my predictions so I'm sticking with the same ones I started last year with......

Sean Connery
Prince Philip
The Queen
Vera Lynn
Kirk Douglas ​

So @Houchens Head posted this to kick the thread off - i believe you, sir, win the prize (sadly, as it goes)

Two out of five he is going well

Better than them, anyway!

Gutted to hear about Vera Lynn, I know it was on the cards, with her being 103. But it's almost like a link to the ww2 public spirit has finally gone.
R.I.P Vera.

I'd like to think I'm as patriotic as the next man, but I wonder how much longer we remember/celibrate start/finish/events of WW1 and WW2. I guess as they are still in recent memory with some still surviving we will carry on for sometime yet.
Remberance Day to remember those who we lost would be enough for me. After all, we have been at war with some nation for most of our history.

 

[Houchens Head]

Vera Lynn always reminded me of an Eskimo's dinner.

Whale meat again.

"Vera, Vera, what has become of you?"

BBC described it as shocking news. How shocked can you be that someone who is 103 has died?

tbf some people seem to have a fighting chance of being immortal!

I always thought Lemmy was. That will learn me.

I suppose if you’ve hardly done a days work in your life and lived a fairly comfortable time you should get a good run.

 

[fatso]

And yet she did more for her country, and her generation, than you ever will!

Just like the Royal Spongers.

She sang a few songs mate, get over yourself.

Two black eyes. Liz is a kinky minx

One can imagine that ma'am

 

[Otis]

Yeah and that was him when he was 39. Imagine what he looks like now.

 

[Sbarcher]

I had him and Vera as a double this year.

 

[clint van damme]

He's definitely been kept alive by unnatural means.
Satanism or some sinister medical procedure. Something along those lines.

 

[bringbackrattles]

103 is a good innings. A customer of mine a lovely Irish lady died a couple of years ago aged 101. Still lived in her own home and independent. Asked her what's the secret to her long life ? She just replied " pure luck. "

 

[Houchens Head]

I had him and Vera as a double this year.

If he goes, I'll have a treble!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He seems to defy the grim reaper every year. But a bit like City winning the league if you keep predicting it, it'll happen eventually

Read an article recently about famous alcoholics. And was shocked to see that the Queen Mother was a well known alcoholic. Bloody hell she lived to a hundred I think.

She once said to the bartenders at the palace bar "When you two old queens have finished talking this old queen would like a drink."

Read in the article even at 97 she smuggled bottles of gin into a hospital she was in. Reckon she started her day off early with a drink, and was well known as a piss head.

Must have rotted her teeth as well. She had a horrible set of gnashers!

Yep she sang a few songs and smiled at people and then lived off it for years, a little bit like an older version of Cliff Richard.

The only benefit of corona is that her funeral will be a low key affair or some of the mad folk would have been give her a massive funeral

 

[clint van damme]

There aren't many subjects that don't kick off arguments on here but I thought vera Lynne might be one!

Probably that pissed up she never noticed them ?

Oh the queen mother, she's one for the George Floyd thread.
