The Culture Cup Round x - Adam is a naughty naughty boy

First topic message reminder :

Great idea, Rick. Like windscreen wipers on a duck's butt.

Jeff, the queen of some termite species can lay 40,000 eggs per day.

Julius pandering to the obese vote. Morning Jules and Serial Dave.

I think some of the women in Bradford may be termites judging by the queues at the social security, that some people may have misread at polling day.

Speaking of which I saw some outraged posts on social media proclaiming angrily that if we don't get St Georges day off, why the hell should some schools be closed for Poland day...

Morning DAVE/Jules

I worked in the polling station yesterday. I am now very much of the opinion that the Black Adder episode where 12 people out of 30000 had the vote may not have been a bad idea.

It's akin to Gordon Brown wanting everyone to have access to the internet despite overwhelming evidence to suggest that would be a f*cking bad idea. Anyway as Twain(?) said, if voting changed anything, it wouldn't be allowed.

Might be on radio 2 pop master at 1030. Will give you a shout out if I do get on.

OOOOH, my lot in the office here bloody love it. Will keep my ears open even though I f*cking hate Radio 2

She also said 'Man, I feel like a woman"

Not sure if that is allowed under Shania law...

Hey Adam, all it took to get instant acknowledgement is radio stardom! Way to go!

Good work boys. Beautiful work. The energy is lacking this morning but the form is lovely Radio 2 Adam? Don't let us down or we will replace you with hero.

Not appearing this morning. I got through the qualifying round but they haven't called back. Will try again next week. I had 3 questions of which I got 2 right.

1. Which Laura sang about "Gloria" in the 80s
2. Who had a hit with "you get what you give"
3. What was the name of captain sensibles number 1?

FFS Adam, I've gone and put the Radio on now...just listening to some boring Irish c*nt going on about himself endlessly instead...could be SHENGLONG.

You better not be this boring when you get on. This tw*t makes Ken Bruce look like Peter Ustinov

I got more points than the fat oirish maggot. 

Didn't cover myself in glory either so maybe best that I didn't get on. Think I got 15 points.

I threw in that extra palindrome for free.

I got it Jules but it was quite funny ignoring it. You've never forgiven us for not lolling out loud at your once I caught a fish alive joke on your 12345th post.

Gutentag Resonance Rick and Treble TLD

All good in the hood?

Knockout of the year this weekend on a passable undercard. A horrible stoppage in the Lemiuex fight and a decent performance from Gomez.

Morning mate, saw the Crolla, Chis and Khan fights, thought Crolla was quality, Khan went as expected, and Chis was boring.

Good weekend?

Sick

Didn't watch any of the hearn fights, will catch up on Crolla. Hearn's undercards are fecking atrocious and I can't even be arsed to stream em. Plus I got boxnations own stream which makes life easier.


It was a decentish weekend, a lot of cleaning and getting stuff to the recycling depot but staying up for the Khan fight sort of ruined my Sunday because I was absolutely shattered and irritable after getting back up at 9am. Think age is finally catching up with me. Weather was lovely and the starry night sky was magnificent. So up and down weekend without anything too good or bad happening. What did you get up to?

Didn't do a great deal on Friday to be honest. On Saturday there was a sort of big party in the local park which, with the weather, was cracking and had a really good day, barring the football of course...

Sunday just relaxed, which was nice.

Glad to see summer starting to poke it's head out as well....

Morning notches.

Morning Jeff, is one well?

Middling Rick. How are thing in Bradders, absolutely glorious in the noncing capital of the U.K.

All good in jihadist capital of Britain mate, sunny weather and shining temperaments...

Though I am in the south today in Derby, seems ok...

My mate owns a clothes shop in Derby. Other than that I know nothing of the place.

You are not missing much to be honest Jeff, I know Nottingham better to be fair, but they pay me so I turn up and put up with the dodgy accents, and shoite curry that they knock out in the canteen. Pretty close to Alton Towers though, which is nice.

Nottingham I like, it has Rock City. That is a big plus

It is a great city to go out in is Nottingham, I have friends in nearby Wollaton so get down when I can. It is about as south as you can get before the manners go to rat5h1t and the food gets expensive and pretentious...

Feckin computer has gone haywire. Morning rowley, reverting to type I see with the carp music.

Good morning.
