This is the beauty of this comp - You’re never out of contention until the year is done. A well timed heart attack or car accident can shoot you to the top of the leaderboard!

It looks like there are a few trying to meet the big guy upstairs, before 2023 kicks in ENE.

So we had Pele pass away overnight, we had Viviene Westwood, very popular fashion designer also pass away at age 81 and we have got the only Pope to ever retire from that position, making plans to meet his boss as soon as possible.

What is it called when you are doing the opposite to death riding a selection or non selection?

Existence riding, life riding.

Ok all, tally your scores. Give me a quote of your entry noting how many points for each that left us and then a total at the bottom. I’m back in Australia on the 19th so whoever has the highest reported score then wins the prize. I reserve the right to audit any scores if I wish/could be bothered.
