That's my wife you are talking about Mr Brittain.

I find that unnecessarily offensive.

I'm not even convinced it is Richard Brittain, so I'm just leaving well alone :?




Why don't you ever call anymore?

No, that really is him. The Fake Richard Brittain is someone else. Who says I can't use the name change facility productively?

Oh okay.

Nice then that he does his insults in public, but his apologies in private... :roll:

I insulted Corby because I thought he was posting as 'Richard Brittain' ('The Fake Richard Brittain'). I now know that it was in fact Jonathan O'Neill. I have insulted O'Neill and apologised to Corby, both in private.

If you cut a gandiseeg in half, do you get two gandiseegs or two halves of a gandiseeg?

Hi, everyone!

I have determineed that we will have a game of Countdown very soon. Yes, it will be Carey Countdown.

However, I have a bit of a problem. The game will be between Dinos Sfyris and Jon Corby, and I have attempted to contact Dinos twice. Oddly enough, I got a failure delivery both times. When sending him a message, I tried typing in his e-mail address with and without the co.uk suffix and it has not worked out. Dinos, could you please contact me when you get a chance?

The game could be tomorrow, it could be Wednesday. Who knows? One thing I do know for sure is that the game will happen eventually. So, Dinos and Jon, if you're reading this I hope to see you both there very soon.

Because no harm was done in whoever it was apologizing to you for being mean, you are definitely invited to play.

I'm still looking for Dinos, though.
