Conspicuous Numerology

Is the jinxed 27 member European Union set to join Amy Winehouse, Brian Jones, Jimmy Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain as a member of the star-crossed Forever 27 Club?

Or will Greece be the first to get hoofed out, making it the '26 Club', with the fatally-flawed union spiralling on downwards like the Ten Little Indians tale – 25, 24, 23 – until there are none - as each member nation disappears up its own fiscal black hole of monumental indebtedness?
