Division B - Me vs Andrew Feist.

I will have to concede this one. Andrew and I had arranged to play in the week, but it's my fault the match wasn't played.

Division B: Tyron Potts 148 - 138 Supee Juachan

Three tie-breakers

If we haven't yet reached the 64-person limit, I'm in too!

I was browsing the BBC news website at work today and came across this article about toucans' bills, containing a favourite nine - PREDATION. Seems odd for it to be used in relation to birds' nests.

Me 2 - 0 Peter Crawley:

Had to come back from behind in both after Peter spotted some great nines.

Ah - clear case of PICNIC* . I should start paying attention to those instructions.
Thanks Charlie.

*Problem in chair, not in computer

Not sure if this is a bug, or something wrong with my PC ... A couple of times recently, I've had perfectly good conundrum solutions rejected for no apparent reason: http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=85979&round=1259485#r1259485 http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=82497&round=1...

Is it RINGROAD?

Sounds good - please add me to the U1200s.

Maybe not, but I bet a raccoon has never stooped this low: http://www.badgerbadgerbadger.com

I went to school with a girl called Theresa Green.

I should also point out that my name fits the bill (T Potts) for which I am eternally thankful to my parents. Thankfully, we decided not to call my son Jack.

Indeed, though I did begin to fear for his sanity during this week's extended rant about Del Boy falling through the bar. It's the extended , repetitive rants that put me off during this week's episode. They detracted from an otherwise quite clever routine. You know what my trouble is, don't you? M...

Hi Davy! Are you any relation to the former Yeovil Town footballer David Affleck?

I bet you get asked that all the time...

Question 4: I grew up in Somerset and was always told it was Wells. I willing to bet that's not the right answer though.

Number 1: 'Engine' iirc. #s 1 & 2 were 'Contact Light' followed by 'Okay, engine shutdown'. I might be wrong about them saying 'okay'. Re Number 1: I think there is a 'Shutdown' in there somewhere... Probably before the 'Okay' - making 'Okay' the fourth word? Number 8: Canada - the border loops...

I'll never grow tired of proclaiming 'arseburgers' (as used by Eric's boss in Stressed Eric) when things don't go to plan.
