Morning all.
Sorry I was unable to make the main event last night. My router/modem gave up the ghost at about 4.30 to 5.00 so I was totally buggered.
Looks like it went well even if the best team lost. ;D
Hopefully, I'll be able to contribute to the next one. Top marks to Loo-Knee for all the hard work in setting the questions. :y :y

I too would like to Congratulate Loo-Knee on setting the worst question i have ever read in my entire life, in fact they were so bad, some people say that he should go with Mikedundee to Thailand for a year and lower his head in shame ;D ;D ;D ;D
Only joking Daz, well done mate, good work, i sure as hell know that it was hard work getting us lot together, and finding appropriate questions :y :y :y
