Here is my effort for this year's Hares pool!

Many thanks and appreciation to you for running this game again. 

@Gooseberry Crumble I presume the Ken Sprague you are referring to is the businessman? As the cartoonist died back in 2004.

Ken Sprague the businessman is also Ken Sprague the bodybuilder, and Ken Sprague the gay porn actor.

So yeah,  I thinks it's a fair assumption that is the Ken Sprague that Gooseberry was referring to :D.

Apricot Crumble pick for this year's DDP. It's the bodybuilder/gay porn actor/nude model/school teacher guy, fair to assume! :lol:

Thanks for the entry.

 

I cannot find a Leonard Bardern so I am going to assume you mean chess grandmaster Leonard Barden, unless I hear otherwise.

Oh my! - that is quite the faux pas. I am actually embarrassed for you.

 

And then to make matters worse, later in the list you managed to spell "Syd" wrong :o

 

You are having quite the 'mare, mate. I will be surprised if you are able to show your face around here for some time. But don't worry, people will forget eventually. Sure, you might occasionally hear people stifling laughter and muttering "composer" as you pass by, but pay no heed to them. You are better than all of them put together!

 

Anyhow, all good with the team, and Alan Bergman (Lyricist) takes his place on it. 

 

 

On another note, when did it become unacceptable to use the word "snig,gering" as I had originally intended in that post? (I took it out, rather than add in the comma as I have done there). Are normal words to be banned because they contain an unacceptable combination of letters in the middle of them? Ordinarily I am quite happy to attach myself to the WOKE brigade, but that is just ridiculous.

A little under three days to go until the game commences, and so far we have 35 players on board. A long way to go to reach last years record entry of 65 players. 

So far, I am missing entries from the following who played last year. Still load of time to submit a team, and of course new players are very welcome to join.
