First topic message reminder :

That should do it.

Good point Shah. That's a weight lifted from my shoulders.

Stop with the puns or you'll all be for the high jump.

It'll need a triple jump to get out of that michaelsing before it sets Galted.

Can we just putt these sh1t jokes to bed

You're still sore I schooled you about fencing at the last games.

Stop medalling rick.

That was relay good, Jules.

Cheers PJ. Means a lot, as puns like that don't usually make you baton eyelid.

Nice Slalom but you're still a Gaper

So thrilled to get the OP. Thanks Julius. It should be all downhill from here.

Well fist me dry... I'm early for morning tea gain.

Good morning folks.

Morning PJ. First class thread split.

Only four days til the weekend.

Thanks Jules. Good morning.

I have the same feeling but only 3 and a half days to go here.

I've solved my pigeon problem by putting up mesh where they like to congregate and procreate. I'll add the "Scat" spray tomorrow and see how that goes for extra protection.

A Dastardly plan.

I've been having a difficult time. It's the last time I design a box gutter roof system... or at least I now know where to improve the design detail by making sure there are no gaps under the parapets and screening off properly.

I inadvertently made it too enticing for my pigeon friends. It's a frying pan up there. 57 degrees C the other day according to the solar data but there was this little 'tunnel' under the parapet and out to the rain water head they could sit under.

Violence, PJ. Animals understand little else.

Morning, fist

Morning, sicond

Hello!

Anyone any bright ideas for a 10 question long, themed, quiz round?

Not at the moment. I'll think about it overnight.

Went to one the other week where the first 9 questions had answers that were the girls' names from Mambo No 5. Question 10 was - what is the link?

Crikey, that is a good idea actually, but I have a connections round in here already.

You could do one from the Billy Joel song, which I can't remember the title of right now.

I didn't start that fire.

Cover Versions
1. In 1979 the pop duo Dollar reached the top 10 with which Beatles song?
2. In 1964 who originally recorded Tainted Love, later covered by Soft Cell?
3. For one point each, name the 2 Take That no. 1 singles that were cover versions?
4. Who wrote and originally recorded the Whitney Houston hit I Will Always Love You?
5. Which Elton John song has famously been covered by both Kate Bush and William Shatner?
6. Sinead O’Connor’s cover version of Nothing Compares To U was, for one point, written by whom, and for another point, first recorded by which band?
7. Which famous singer sang backing vocals on Lulu’s cover of David Bowie’s The Man Who Sold The World?
8. UB40 and Chrissie Hynde had a no. 1 hit with which Sonny & Cher song?
9. Girls Aloud had a no. 1 hit with which Pretenders song?
10. In 1983 Siouxsie and the Banshees reached the top 5 with which Beatles song?

I think I only know number 8, but then I suck at music.

Same, though I have an idea that 4 is Dolly Parton and the first part of 6 is Prince.

I've definitely given up on your edited post re: question 2.

Oops, fixed

And question 6.

I credited you with the right answer, I am multi tasking badly

Top bantz this morning, lads.

Worn out from the rigours of the working week.

I’m here so things should pick up hugely.

Innit?

I have been reading stuff in the SCP foundation this week, very interesting.

Recommend if you like your horror fiction.
