Oops..... :oops: Just did my maths. 10 will only get RB equal to TORB.

Thus, make that a somewhat stifled

ELEVEN.....

I revised my date from 7 Dec to some time in January, should have stuck with the original.
Glen is looking good.

Confident are we? I personally think Bick or GRB are looking good (19th and 10th December).

I must say I'm surprised there wasn't some more obvious bait laid for me by those with the earlier dates or for Ric by those with later dates. 8)

Torb, you can't just let RB post on this thread without response! - it will never take until to the 19th at this rate... Glen's looking likely to pick up that 71 Grange now... :wink:

Bik,

I would have let that one slide but I don't have any 71 Grunge, and if I did, Glen wouldn't get it. I like the guy but not that much!

Only 5 to go till Brian is the King!

Ric, Brian
This reminds me of the footballers who would kick the ball straight into touch from the kick-off (which obviously was completely unrelated to the spread-betting firms offering odds on the time before the 1st throw in :roll: ).

Well, that's it, done and dusted, I'll let Ric work out the lucky winner and tell us which bottle of wine from his several hundred excess he will be sending as the prize.

.... and it looks like the winner is Bik. Well done.

Please send me an email to torb@torbwine.com so we can work out the prize details.

Now that Brian is numero uno, its also time for him to take over the responsibility of posting the weekly drunken thread. :D But then he jumped the gun doing it least week already. :P

Hi Ian,

Clearly not!

Here I am having had a sleep in till 7am (cause Marion would kill me if I woke her up) and on his first morning in his new job, Brian hasn't even posted it yet. You can't get good help. :roll: :)

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank my agent, my manager, all the guys who have encouraged me over the years and the support of my family, without whom this achievement wouldn't have been possible...
Cheers,

Glen,

You are just pi$$ed off that you could not add another winning tag line to your profile. Twenty four hours difference and you would have had it.

Bik,

Love your last post.
