    Football

    Well, yes, she may have 'won' but its still unlikely she (or any other pub) will be allowed to show matches via imported decoders because of copyright issues. I await the ruling from British courts during ratification of the EU ruling with interest. Hopefully Sky will be forced to price their domestic coverage at a more realistic (i.e. cheaper) level.

    Nobel Prize In Death

    One of this years Nobel Laureates in medicine, Ralph Steinman, has died aged 68, days after winning the award. Edit: It may be he died days before receiving the award, as the report talks of the award being announced 'Monday' but isn't specific which Monday. Updated: Seems he did die before the award.

    The 6th Death Of 2011

    I don't know..I'm worried that that curse notaguest put on us might actually be working Moderators, is it him again?? The lack of a space between the ellipsis and 'I' would indicate the lack of adherence to rules of grammar that we associate with notamember, so if there's a book, I know where my money would go.

    56? Don't you mean '54? Yes. [Captain Mainwaring] Well done OoO, I was waiting to see who'd spot that first. [/Captain Mainwaring] I suspect this error was caused by the digits 4 and 6 both being adjacent to 5, rather than me not being able to read a headline.

    I thought I had put him in, which would have given me my first hit, but I've checked and he was my first sub.

    Too Many Moderators ?

    He cannot post, but he's not banned, so other bits of the forum, like PMs, he can still use. regards, Hein Ah, I see. Anyway, I've blocked his PMs now.

    Too Many Moderators ?

    I got the PM that he'd been banned. After the euphoria had lessened somewhat I posted that James Garner's brother Jack had died. Fifteen minutes later I got another PM from notamember that he'd been suspended for posting that same death, which had been deleted and I might be next! Question - if he's suspended/banned/deleted or whatever, how come he can still send PMs?

    James Garner

    James's older brother Jack has died aged 84. This of course has no direct correlation to Jim's prognosis.
