I haven't done the duel, but I can't declare in a practice either.

I'm coming to play - in the pub afterwards!

Not in the exclusive "Players' Lounge" though.

I'll take the place of a player for the evening - Kai will be in bed!

Why, are there any going?

If the pub accommodates kids, we'll be there for the meal and piss up, if not, I'll be there and Kai'll be sitting in the hotel room on his own!:)

I wasn't feeling too bad about my age until I watched this, but I now feel positively ancient as I can remember buying the vinyl (in my early teens)!

My birthday song was "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" by Marmalade.

I think the Guardian misprinted this bit - "David O'Donnell, a quietly spoken man from Northern Ireland" - were they talking to the same David O'Donnell I met in the green room?!

A funny one that most of you would've probably come across before: MOTHER IN LAW is WOMAN HITLER Or HERE COME DOTS is THE MORSE CODE. TWELVE PLUS ONE = ELEVEN PLUS TWO is another of my favourites as well as CASH LOST IN ME = SLOT MACHINES DESPERATION = A ROPE ENDS IT THE EYES = THEY SEE ELECTION RE...

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!

Junaid: Only person to have played under 3 different hosts Alas, not quite. Anita Freeland, too. I was the first though if that counts! Also, 5 visits to the studio as a contestant in a 6 month period must count for something right? Please? How about being dragged along as a parent 4 times in the l...

Sorry Jason, but I'm not quite sure what planet you're on with this!

I'm neither delectable nor young, but I could use a new night shirt!

Me neither, and are you not concerned about dreaming of Rhyddian, Terry Wogan and rectums in one dream?!

If all you kids come and get in the back of my camper van, I can show you what all the items are about. .... and I thought it was T we had to worry about! Your honour, "I'd done a good job until we met this lot!" - I think we all know who the corrupting influences are don't we, ie can we ...

I'm waiting for a better one than that!!!!

By the way, you managed that reply ok!

No, but you have just reminded me that Damian said I could have a new Countdown polo shirt at CoC, which he failed to deliver :x You're out of luck - I asked Damian for a smaller one for Kai, but apparently they're not making anymore and have run out of the big ones. Maybe he was just trying to hum...

Sorry Kai

Bloody hell, a whole sentence without fuck in it!!!

The ask TW was enough to disturb me!!!

Happy birthday!

Sorry David, I didn't realise I was that scary - I hoped I just blended into the background and you forgot I was there!

Welcome coach ev! Did you feel as thick at the CoC as I did?!

Thanks for the warm welcome to the forum. Thanks also to all the contestants, coaches(!) and relatives at CoC for making it a great few days, it was lovely to meet you all (and see some familiar faces), even if I did feel particularly thick when listening to you in the green room! Hope your lip's ok...
