Pope Francis has died, aged 88. He had a good innings, and the thing I liked about him was he lived in a modest sized apartment in the Vatican. Reportedly, he also cooked for himself. The next step is the choice of a new Pope, through the process of a convocation of the Cardinals. I wonder who will emerge from the pack?
Someone on the TV said that when the Pope died, they'd hit his forehead with a hammer three times to confirm he's dead. Imagine sleeping soundly, and then whack - ouch. However, this time it was just the doctor signing off and issuing a death certificate.
