It has dawned on me that we need a website similar to Is Thatcher Dead Yet

(Unfortunately, someone more clever than I would have to create it)

https://www.isthatcherdeadyet.co.uk/

I stumbled on it while Margaret Thatcher was still alive when all it said was "No, check back later." When the day came I did check back and it said "Yes, tell us how you're celebrating".

The links to Factbook, Twitter (is was still Twitter then), and Spotify still work & could provide inspiration. Beware the Twitter page labeled #nowthatchersdead rather than read it "Now Thatchers Dead", some people read it as "Now that Cher is dead" - and they tended to get upset about that.

Facebook link still give the best information: parties near you on (https://www.facebook.com/search/?flt=1&q=thatcher%20dies)
