Quiky 258 - Rankings



Strange team names explained

I don't know if anyone present last Thursday remembers my struggles with the pronunciation of "Llanbobble"..
Intrigued by what the meaning of the word might be (wrongly assuming that it was a Welsh 4th division football club) I found the time to google it and this is what.

Rhod Gilbert (born Carmarthen, Wales) is a Welsh comedian who was nominated in 2005 for the Perrier Best Newcomer Award. He started his stand-up comedy career in 2002, and in 2003, won five different talent compeitions. In his 2006 Edinburgh Fringe show Knocking on Heaven's Door, Rhod told stories from his life weighing up whether, when it is his turn, will he be admitted to heaven. Many of his stories told of his fictional childhood in the village of Llanbobble - he was actually born and bred in Carmarthen.

Here is a clip from one of his stand-up shows, funny alreet but I suspect after a while his routine might get a tad boring...

Belatedly Happy Birthday once again, hope you had a good one and the boys in red deliver the fitting prezzie tonight..

Quiky 256 - evidence

In case you're waiting for pics, vids and other evidence of the night not too long ago when Le Brain & La Reine were running things - patience.

As promised I won't publish anything until I've given it a good photoshopping and previous private viewing. And if time permits, editing.

Hélène can pick her nose (the one she wants in the photograph) and Ana can choose a whole new head. Like, a stand-in (or sit-in).

Themed Quiz #258

257 was Frank-related questions and pictures, because - as we all know - The Brain turned 30.

Expect Jon/John/Jonathan/Johann(es)-themed questions for 258... maybe even songs... and Liverpool (the football club, that is)...

Quiky 257 - Rankings

close affair this time, only 7 points between 1st and 5th...

No prediction of the week, or funny caption... not even for Shay who predicts that Newcastle will be bottom of the table by next week. There are no points for stating the obvious.
