1,000th post. Well done everyone.

We are officially more verbose than a Q&A slot at the the Annual Housewives Verbal Diarrhoea Convention in Dublin.

Mike Coman has been announced as Edinburgh captain with Gilchrist vice captain

Probably a sensible move - he's going to be playing a lot of rugby with Denton out unti December.

Why hasn't this thread died yet? We need a new one for the new season.

[RDW]

Nothing stopping you JS!

Has to be good though....

[justified sinner]

That assumes I knew how to do computer stuff, other than posting from my phone, developing large spreadsheets and doing some interesting stuff with databases. Sorry I fail.

I'm a-working on it, friends.

[RDW]

Excellent!

Well, I say 'any time'. It's really only this one time, and then maybe one more time if food is provided.

[George Carlin]

Great work, Bru.

Another 1,000 posts of erudite and amusing drivel. Very proud.

Let's decamp to the thread above. Take your litter with you.

Schiz - no leaving needles and Tennants Super cans like last time.
