Hope the forum will take this post in whichever way it chooses: ironic, ludicrous, pathetic, moronic, even perverted, but after the year we've just had, one does wonder 'who will be next' in 2017? George Micheal once appeared on stage with a 'Choose Life' t-shirt - good mantra - but this particular mantra during his life got thwarted into 'Death Becomes Us'.
I remember someone once saying to me when I was a youngster, 'St Paul said, 'I die daily!' Now that mantra has stuck with me ever since. Looking back on 2016, I respect every single 'personality' that has died this year but then around 15,000 - 30,000 Syrians have also died this year!
So to lighten things up for the start of 2017, who will 'kick the bucket' this year?
Here's my Top Ten:
Prince Phillip
Kirk Douglas
George Bush Sr.
Vera Lynn
The Queen
Bruce Forsyth
Roger Moore
Jerry Lewis
Keith Richard
Ken Dodd
Please add to, comment, deride, whatever . . . I should point out that this post in no way reflects my state of mind - I just thought it would be a 'fun' way to start the new year.

You can't help but wonder at the mindset of someone doing this, after all, what does it achieve.

I have greatest respect for Rugby Union, they started it mid-way through the 19th century. Thankfully we grabbed it and turned it into a spectacle on 29th August 1895
