Be Excellent To Each Other

The King Crimson and Bucks Fizz lyricist Peter Sinfield has died, aged 80.

King Crimson and Bucks Fizz are unlikely bed-fellows, but Pete worked with a lot of other artists.

He also provided the words for Greg Lake's perennial festive hit I Believe In Father Christmas, which first charted in 1975, and for Celine Dion's global smash Think Twice. ....... Although in was kept off the top spot in 1975 by Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, Sinfield said radio station plays every December meant it kept him in royalties that he estimated were about £20,000 a year.

86 is older than I was expecting. Lots of "political heavyweight" comments in the news which is a kind of way of saying he clearly ate a lot of chips.

Or because he famously punched someone, like a heavyweight boxer? Combo of the two, maybe. Was also known to be quite boisterous. It’s used quite often in politics to mean someone with a lot of influence, though.

My Dad always used to tell me that we were related to him, but I can't remember how. I'm sure he was just bullshitting me.

Normally it's because you have a shared ancestor.

Has nobody scored a point this year? And all?

Dimrill has one from Shannon Doherty

Indeed he does @SupaModz can you please update the first post?

Seems very appropriate that Dimmers retires as champion.
