MMF - Keeper of Mustelids, with added P.M.A., is now in a relationship.

Deep shock.

Maureen O'Hara of Quiet Man fame has died.

My favourite film and one of my favourite actresses.

I've seen 4 of O'Hara's movies. The most recent was "Only the Lonely," where she co-starred with John Candy.

Is that a Friday 13th death? The news reports are showing today, but the Twitter message this morning where it was announced said "last night".

I've just found the answer to my own question. The family say it was the early hours of Saturday 14th.

Rules are on the existing homepage at A87844972, but please send your entries to the following address:

One thing I am considering for Deathlist 2016 is a small rule change - to allow deaths notified in non-UK as well as UK broadsheets (New York Times, Le Monde... that sort of thing).

Let me know whether or not you think this would be a good idea.

New York Times, Le Monde, etc., are fine with me. It's probable that the most illustrious of the dear departed will be chronicled in most "broadsheets" anyway [Since we are an Internet site, shouldn't announcements on Internet sites also be eligible?].
