mrs milk snatcher has been in one of the lads side since the formation of our death sweep in jan 2009 dan. we are now entering our 3rd year of running the game. the rules are as follows in the first month we picked 4 each (so the game could get a head start) and we then add a player every month - it costs a pound a month to enter and on the last day of work in december the winner gets the pot of £48 plus a drink off all other players per death in their team. only 4 of us play and everyone else thinks we are morbid (but strangely if anyone dies the non players are always first to say "anyone have pete postlethwaite" etc etc.....) only rule we stipulate is you cannot pick someone who you know to be terminally ill at the time of picking. but if they kept it quiet that they had the big c (as in the case of pete p) then that's fine - for example you can't pick gerry rafferty as we knew he was ill.

My bet is on Christopher Lee this year, for some reason (but i have a sneaky suspicion he may see his 100th birthday) and another big name in music, but that name, i havnt decided on yet.
Oh how morbid lol!
