I'm not sure, but I think I know how many I'll find amusing. On the plus side I have pepsi max and sugary chewy sweets, so I'm sorted 8-)

It must be nail biting being 8th seed just waiting for the prelims to finish (and so close to the end too).

Yes, but you know what I mean. In the event of someone making a higher seed, chances are you may be knocked out :(.

I think thats where I'm going wrong :lol:.

I am trying to be good enough to play at a professional level (so when I play against either Chris or Conor at COLIN, I might beat them :lol:) but I am still making schoolboy errors :(.

Today's challenger seemed an affable chap. His father, as far as I can tell, is this guy... also called Len Marshall.

Well done Jo Brand on that last numbers! I was quite surprised Carol didn't get it though. I got it.

Agreed. I've just watched the programme. The only Marshall within many years of 16 years ago is the guy that you've linked to.

And I've since buggered up your link, haven't I. Sorry.
