Things I have learnt today:

Lazy searching of the medical reviews suggests not knowing that people are praying for you is better for pain relief than hypno birthing which means the local church could be £300 closer to a new roof.

Oh, its annual "stick a bbc contracted celebrity in a centrifuge in a lazy effort to explain science" week. This year, John Bishop.

They did. Some stat about them leading at villa park for the first time since napoleon or something. Then the craziest thing happened. Can you guess what it is?

Damnit. Didn't work.

Hmm. All the football websites seem to be broken and aren't updating the villa score.

They even added three points to our total. Very odd.

5548. I particularly approved of the board being rotated.

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25594

I was ok until I hit the 33.3333[...] and merged it with the square root. I got completely stuck from that point on

But I guess that's Numberwang!

14220 and I got told, "You're the numberwang!"

I'm watching Knightmare live tonight in Birmingham. Remember Knightmare on Children's ITV? Yeah, it's a stage show of that and it's great!

Do they pull someone from the audience to be the Dungeoneer?

Grim... · **Posted:** Sat Jan 16, 2016 0:00

Is Treguard there?

TheVision · **Posted:** Sat Jan 16, 2016 8:35

Sort of and no. The dungeoneer came from behind the stage and I saw him in the foyer before but I'm not entirely convinced he was a regular audience member. Nevertheless, it was very funny and very well put together. There was a lot of nerdy references and they were very good at improvising when things didn't go quite right.

The guys who did it are putting together another Kickstarter to do Knightmare live: Level 3. I may support it but if the show comes near you, I'd highly recommend seeing it.

a) there is snow in Bedford
b) Coco Pops Porridge looks minging.

That is all.

A kind gesture

JohnCoffey · **Posted:** Sun Jan 17, 2016 17:12

1) Go to Sports Direct and search for product code 609225 - its a £59.99 Everlast Padded Mens Jacket
2) Enter promo code 22PGLW and it knocks £59.99 off.
3) Delivery is £4.99.
Order a size up from normal as there sized smaller than normal.
(Apparently they're free due to Newcastle winning their game today or something)

Worked for me

I ordered it in lime, even though it looks nothing like lime. Bit helmetty, but it's so cold out ATM I really couldn't care less.

MaliA · **Posted:** Sun Jan 17, 2016 17:30

Sports direct can get to fuck.

ApplePieOfDestiny · **Joined:** 17th Dec, 2008 **Posts:** 8293

I thought the offer was for people who were at the game. If he's spannered giving out free stuff out it wouldn't surprise me.

Another fun night out at the ice hockey. This time the Oxford boys lost although their opponents were far higher up the table so that's to be expected I guess. I was impressed by the Chelmsford Chieftan's teamwork, speed, and passing. This time I was sitting near the Oxford sinbin which seemed to be a pretty popular place for the players to flirt with girls given how many ended up there.

I grabbed one of these. It'll do for if I have to work on the car in the cold or if I want to dress up as an eastern European window cleaner.

Knowing SportDirect, I imagine £4.99 including delivery is the correct price for this...

I got a new coat for Christmas because the zip jammed on my last one and I threw a fit and ripped it off (I was stuck in it for about ten minutes fruitlessly trying to get the zip undone).

The only thing I don't like about my new coat is that it's down. Whilst that's fantastic for warmth if it gets wet you stink like a wet duck (it's truly minging). So I will just use the helmet coat as a rain coat.

Not sure why all the SD hate though?

It's because they're mostly known for treating their staff like shit, all zero hours contracts and an unusually high number of workplace accidents at their warehouse.

Or else it's simply because it's somewhere that mostly poor people shop.

Jem · **Posted:** Mon Jan 18, 2016 13:38

Is there any limitations on this offer - e.g. 1 per household or w/e? - might not be a bad idea to buy a batch for dishing out out local homeless shelters.

Oh I see yes. I shop there for trainer socks and anything Adidas that's more expensive elsewhere. Mostly because we have one local.

Didn't know they treated their staff shitty though.

Edit. I think they are all gone now Jem.

Definitely the former for me. They're basically a UK sweatshop.
