New Game - Questions Only

[crispy]

I'm sure it does Dawn, I'm willing to bet if we include Tennis a few times, that will be the ads selected. I want to know why nobody seems to like tennis, I can only assume that they haven't watched any of the Tennis matches I've been watching over the past few days.

 

Come on all you anti Tennis people, tell us the last game of tennis you watched.

 

Why don't you like tennis?

 

PS ok, so I was wrong this time.

Anyone remember Clayhanger?

 

It rings a bell Dawn but only vaguely. What are they about? I love a good book.

 

Hey, it works, Thank you, thank you Dawn!!!!!!!

 

I sadly can't answer any of your questions Peta except to say I haven't a clue. lol

Thanks for the tennis reference Hils, I'm still waiting for it to prove me right. Perhaps Marina read the posts and put a stop on any sports ads.

 

I'm trying to put the posts together to follow your comment to Dawn, but we currently have so many questions without answers, I'm getting lost - Can you help me out?

To be honest Hils, I don't remember the full story-line of Clayhanger. It was a TV series back in 1976 and I remember watching it then. It was on for about 6 months and was set in Five Towns (I think - The Potteries). I remember I absolutely loved the series (I was only 14 at the time!!) so when I saw the books at the car boot I just had to have them.

 

I wonder if we start talking about literature the ads at the bottom will change to books.

 

Anyway, what are the tennis matches that have been on over the last few days?

Hi Dawn,

 

Anyway, what are the tennis matches that have been on over the last few days?

 

All these mentions of tennis have got to get the tennis ads back again. You wouldn't have seen them unless you have Sky sports channels Dawn. Yesterday was the ATP final from Rome and the WTA finals from whatever tournamemt has been on lately - today is the ATP tournament from Hamburg, and that's on for the rest of the week, as is the ladies WTA tournament from Rome.

 

I wonder if we start talking about literature the ads at the bottom will change to books.

 

If it does change, it will only be Am*z*n, and I'm sure we all have enough of their ads thrust at us.

 

Do you all agree that we switch any ongoing conversations to the Discussion Lounge and get back to answering/asking questions here?

Hi Chris,

 

I think that is a good idea as you said there were more questions

 

than answers,I'm sorry though Chris the only question I am going

 

to ask is could you possibly send me instructions on how the quote

 

system works,I know Dawn did some posts ago,but by the time I'd read

 

it I had forgotten how! Take care

Here's a question for you all, just to get this restarted.

 

Who wrote On Golden Pond, and what ink did they use?

 

Don't forget, each answer must be in the form of another question.

 

I've sent you a PM Angela.

[petac]

Don't know what ink, but did they write it with a quill pen made from a duck feather?

[crispy]

They might have done Peta, do you think it could have been written by Arthur Mallard?

[petac]

and was it read on the radio by Charlie Drake?

[crispy]

It could have been Peta - Wasn't he the guy who had the catchphrase "Hello My Ducklings"?

[Izzy]

Eider know. But wasn't his brother on the Crown Green Bowling team for Plymouth?

 

Izzy

[crispy]

Very good Izzy

 

Is that Plymouth as in Ho Ho Ho? That's not the question folks.

 

I'm still trying to work out how they manage to bowl with crowns, wouldn't balls be better?

[dawney-t]

Balls would be better but bowls would be even better, but would they be the ones with the holes in them?

 

Dawn

[angela]

If they had holes, Wood- n't they leak!

 

bfn Angela

ps havn't received pm yet Chris!

[crispy]

Incontinent bowls That's an interesting idea Angela - Wood they have been fed on Cuprinol?

 

 

PS Any news on the PM yet?

[dawney-t]

Well 'its in the wood for good' but wouldn't Jack need some too?

 

Dawn

 

 

P.S. Have you noticed that the adverts are now about quizzes??

[crispy]

Jack definitely needs some, but who knows which way he swings?

[dawney-t]

Well I'd heard it was both ways - is it golf he plays?

 

Dawn

[Hils]

Yes it is definitely golf he plays, but has he got a hole-in-one?

 

Hils

[crispy]

Yes, I heard he's got several. How does he manage it with only one eye?

[Hils]

Ah, but it's the London Eye, so he has a good view. But does he get dizzy?

 

 

Hils

[crispy]

I Believe he does, but is he a Bachelor?

 

 

I'm showing my age now.

[Hils]

My Diane thinks he is but I'm not so Sandie Shaw.

 

Was she just a puppet on a string?

 

Hils

 

 

 

 

 

my age too Chris

[crispy]

Very witty Hils message understood. I heard that her main problem, or so I'm told, is that girl don't come - not sure what to make of that, I'm sure there's much more to her than just a puppet on a string, but how can you tell?
