Re: Countdown words spotted in real life
Reading my book on the way to work this morning and this line pleased me:
"what is it? An Indian spirit? Something like a manitou or a wendigo?"
Prior to this I had no idea these words were related and had always thought a manitou was a bird.

Judging by the fact that Ryan has uttered the words "I fucking love Graeme Cole" on at least 3 occasions in the last 24 hours, I think he might be interested in this position.

Thank you very much to my secret Santa for my lovely mug and Countdown books. The books will keep me occupied on my many train journeys to Hull and the wee guy on the mug reminded of Ryan. I'd put a picture on but I am a little fool and I don't know how to.

On a slightly less controversial note, did anyone accidentally leave their highly-prized Coblivilon souvenir pen at the bowling club? If so, Nita has it and could probably send it to you for a small cost (or you could collect it in a year's time - or whenever you next see Innis!) That might be Mich...
