Monday 25th April 2011 (Series 64, Prelim 71)

[Ryan Taylor]

Apologies for not only a belated recap but also a lacklustre one. Have not had time to go through it properly so I will just say a few little things all here.

Firstly, hope you had good Easters and ate lots of fucking chocolate like fat people do. Secondly, Mary Adie was beat on Friday and so Chris Childs is in the champs chair. Thirdly Chris Childs is quite effeminate and demonstrates this with his weak handshakes. Fourthly, the challenger has black hair and looks as if he's slightly balding at a young age. Finally, I'll be back next week to resume more juicy recapness.
