Hope you have a cracker, mate. Don't spend it in front of a terminal.

Is Michael the Raccoon Boy?

If so, happy birthday to him! If not, happy birthday to him anyway!

Thanks guys, and no Charlie, I haven't spent (much of) it in front of a terminal, airport or otherwise (although I have just returned from sitting in coffee shop reading a newspaper, which to many is probably about as exciting 8-) ).

You mentioned it, Jason, you posted on this page 'happy birthday raccoon boy, is raccoon boy, Michael?' or words to that effect. I don't expect you to have awareness of all the posts on this site but you should be aware of your own. :)

Dan, Great Kate Horton is proud of you because you won the Countdown Tournament in her hometown of Nottingham!

And yes, that will be my new nickname for her from now on. Great Kate! Sounds nice, doesn't it?

'Great Kate' sounds delightful.

I thought it would only be fair to help you sort out the 'raccoon boy' business once and for all.

It all becomes clear if you look at Michael's avatar:

You see that fox with silver eyebrows recieving an enema?
Well, he's thinking about a raccoon...
