    has anyone famous posted?

    Oooooh! Are you winner of the 2003 AntiSF Award, J.C. Jones? I understand that your latest "rollicking" book is "plausibly apocalyptic". I'm looking forward to your interview set to feature in 'Australian Speculative Fiction: A Genre Overview' and do hope you'll be attending 'World Con' in Glasgow, Scotland in August 2005 to promote your "must-read for all Sci-Fi fans".

    Cricket Thread. Only Mad Dogs And Englishmen

    I'd noticed in the past that Dutch football fans tend to refer to the national team as Holland. I don't know why and I sense it probably isn't a good idea telling a Dutchman what his country's called so I won't.

    Ideas and Possibilities for 2006

    Thanks, I'll investigate. I'm new here. It's so nice to pass the hours at work looking forward to the deaths of others, rather than willing my own through sheer boredom. Where can I find that Emlyn Hughes thread?? There are two threads: Emlyn Hughes, Use this thread for proper tributes. Emlyn Hughes - Ranters Thread, You hate this site too ? Post here.

    Clive Dunn

    Do you want to know if he has survived the longest after being named number 1? Of course he has. He was number 1 in the first year and is still alive.

    Awful Anagrams

    I don't think I'll bother explaining why I suggested that picture but I feel I should say I don't think you're a Nazi. ps. Is it my imagination or does the thread description keep changing?

    Awful Anagrams

    Good idea. Why don't you use this one?

    Dalai Lama

    According to Wikipedia: "Upon the death of the Dalai Lama, his monks institute a search for the Lama's reincarnation, or tulku (sprul sku), a small child. Familiarity with the possessions of the previous Dalai Lama is considered the main sign of the reincarnation. The search for the reincarnation typically requires a few years which results in a gap in the list of the Dalai Lamas. The reincarnation is then brought to Lhasa to be trained by the other Lamas." So, Tommy James probably doesn't qualify as Dalai Lama because he wasn't a small boy shortly after the present incumbent died. It might be nice if one of the mods changed the title of this thread, with such pedantic users it's surprising that nobody has seen fit to point out that the Dalai Lama isn't actually camelid.

    Tabloid speculation just gets more and more ridiculous!

    Diego Maradona

    I'll certainly be closely following the matches of Zimbabwe from now on. Unfortunately I don't think there is much chance of England arranging a friendly with Zimbabwe any time soon.

    Who are the immortals?

    Having said that it all seems to work now. Never mind.

    Who are the immortals?

    I meant the '2005 names' option on the front page of the forum. I can't get into it when using Firefox. Something to do with not being able to find the index.php file.

    Prince Harry has a famous father too.

    Who are the immortals?

    I've got the same problem. Can you get into the '2005 Names' forum?

    Britain's Olympic bid

    That's the spirit! (I should make it clear that in the absence of any universally recognised sarcasm smily I am using the wink to indicate the sarcastic tone of my post. I am also confident that this long-winded appendage has in no way deteriorated the impact of my original pithy remark.)

    Old Folkies Home

    Do the Bampton and Adderbury morris dancers all cram themselves in a phone box after their dance? Witnessing morris dancers do that about 10 years ago is enough to make me a defender of the art that is morris dancing.
