Wise words, Garinda.

You wouldn't happen to be related to one of the last nine eternal Guru's who protect and defend mankind? Just a thought -something to do with the "Eastern-babe" sounding Username...

As to my being "sad" - quite the opposite, today has been an excellent day all round, warm sunny and full of life, real and fictional as created by yours truly.

Facts acquired over a lifetime are many and varied, we are all human encyclopedia's, have checked -looks like most have played already and my earlier attempt at helping a few hasn't affected results ( won't happen again, promise) Therefore I can share why I knew a certain actor's birth date, a fact like any other. Over twenty years ago I went to see Born on the 4th of July at the cinema, probably one of his best films -even though he didn't play the usual "boy beautiful" role, enjoyed the film and read up about it to find that he was actually born on the 3rd -would have been just too Hollywood for it to have been the 4th don't you think

Buttonsmum played yesterday, and hasn't played today.

Not telling you off.

You must do as you see fit.

Just rather unsporting to discuss questions, whilst the quiz is still in play.

I certainly wouldn't want to know what questions were about to be asked.

Makes it all a bit pointless.

Not very British.

Rather American.

Like having a paddy, and throwing your racquet around the court.

YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!

Just wanted you to know how much I'm suffering, only in part because you slapped me so hard, but then you know me and the fine line between pleasure and pain...

I will not back down until you call me the Championship Referee - you can say what you like, but you're just a common or garden chair umpire, I want the line judges, Eagle eye, arbiter, arbitrator, commisaire , you name it ...otherwise I'm not playing with you lot ever again, so there!

(I promise it will never happen again, ever...me and my big mouth)

We were talking in another thread about unwatchable characters. The actor in question is one I have never been able to stand - just thinking about him makes me squirm.

Didn't make any difference in the end. Buttonsmum has just played, and she came bottom.

I bet you're taller than he is - and you don't have an American accent (do you?).

Anyway how come you're posting at 9.30? Thought you'd be watching Paxo's Empire (as I am).

Don't worry.

It could have been Tom Conti's birthday, you were blabbing about.
