Morning rick. You caught us all out with your 6:47 am michaelsing effort.

by **rIck_dAgless** Fri 2 Feb - 9:19

Like to keep you crazy cats on your toes. How goes the south?

by **JuliusHMarx** Fri 2 Feb - 9:41

How would I know?
It's called the Midlands because it's in the middle.

by **rIck_dAgless** Fri 2 Feb - 9:57

South of here, therefore the south, in Newcastle where half my family are, I am in the south here.

by **JuliusHMarx** Fri 2 Feb - 10:01

In that case, things in the south are OK.
Hopefully Galted will show up and then he can tell us how things in the south are.

by **rIck_dAgless** Fri 2 Feb - 10:11

Glad to hear it!

I also have a quiz (honestly) for this afternoon, so could be a good day for the CC.

by **Pal Joey** Fri 2 Feb - 11:36

That would be great, rick.

Things are OK here in the south... east of you.

Went outside but I forgot to notice how cold or warm it was.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 2 Feb - 21:28

It was not particular cold this day in the South.

Morning rick.
Such early morning dedication to the CC is most admirable.

by **rIck_dAgless** Mon 5 Feb - 9:48

Just trying to help, Jules, keeps us busy whilst we await the V.3 start.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 5 Feb - 11:01

A tonight job. Back died as apparently 28 is when my body hasn’t chosen to give up

by **rIck_dAgless** Mon 5 Feb - 11:02

No rush, flipper, we have waited a couple of years, so a few hours won't matter.

Hope the back gets better

Enough.

To whet your appetites, this is the standard of ideas I was going through

1. Best on-screen romance
2. Best TV performer as a “second famous career”
3. Best TV cameo
4. Best “fictional” retelling of a true story (non-documentary)
5. Best song to play post-breakup
6. Best commentator
7. Child actor
8. Funniest book
9. Best Oscar nominated movie for best picture that didn’t win
10. Best American TV presenter
11. TV programme that should be revived
Movie to be remade
12. Best ending to a book

by **rIck_dAgless** Mon 5 Feb - 12:54

Seems sufficiently uncultured.

by **Galted** Mon 5 Feb - 13:09

Very much so. I quite like them, apart from the second which I don't understand. Was just thinking about excellent cameos yesterday, will have to do some recollecting.

Word up.

Julius's joke has pleased Galted.

Your reputation precedes you by about 2060 years.

by **Pal Joey** Mon 5 Feb - 17:35

It would look good with all those "V" for "U"s chiselled into stone in a bold Roman typeface. That would be very pleasant on the eye.

by **Pal Joey** Mon 5 Feb - 17:40

JVLIVS CVNNVM

by **Galted** Mon 5 Feb - 17:43

It's funny to think that someone had the honour of being the first person in history to be called a 'c*nt'.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 5 Feb - 19:08

I'm pretty sure it was someone on the Brexit thread, somehow.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 6 Feb - 7:14

Morning, campers.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 6 Feb - 8:03

Hope no one is John Mahoney.

Morning Rick.
I hope Shah isn't Hazar Khan Bijarani either.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 6 Feb - 9:37

Morning, TLD.

Have you submitted your V.3 answers? Exciting times indeed.

by **Galted** Tue 6 Feb - 9:46

Morning all. Deathly ill today, may have died already if the V3 wasn't keeping me going.

by **Pal Joey** Tue 6 Feb - 9:51

Yeah I have. Thought I'd get mine in early. How about yourself?

Rest up if you can Galted... hope you get over it soon.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 6 Feb - 10:00

I have, not sure how cultured they are, but I guess that is not the real point here.

by **Pal Joey** Tue 6 Feb - 10:03

Mine are fairly predictable answers. Probably rushed it a bit but played it safe.

That's very slippery of you, Julius. Now I will have to donate the ten pound note I was going to use to taunt the homeless.

I've yet to do a parkrun rick, as I train alone. However, I haven't ruled it out.
