Third time lucky?

A little (south African) bird has told me there has been another passing away at the Dower House.

I feel like a Monty Python sketch, they are demised, no more, gone to meet their maker, dead.

Is it something in the water? like an apple ?r

Is it internal sabatage? a case for Ace Venturer.

Shall we cancel the Glass bowl? or will it be third time lucky
