I'm certain they said 10 golds this morning.

Edit no you are correct they must have mis-spoke this morning.
Or I mis-heard.

Even so looking at the live table that would put Yorkshire joint on 5 golds with Germany.
Like I said not bad for a bunch of Northern monkies.
Perhaps if Boris the nutter gets his way and London taxes only fund London then we should have our Yorkshire medals only been credited to Yorkshire (No I'm not being serious).

Nah, no chance there are 11.

Maybe 11 medals overall.

If we had 4 blokes in the eight man rowing team, for example, that'd be 4 Yorkshiremen with golds, but only 'half' a gold in the table.
Horsey quintagenerian Skelton is Yorkshire, iirc, but Yorkshire can only really claim a quarter of the credit.
Still, the region does seem to be doing well.

3 of the golds are solo's Heptathlon, Triathlon and long jump IIRC.

But my point is meant to be that we are a nation and when mad Boris and the rest start spouting rubbish about dividing up the nation to suit himself/London and about how London is the centre of the known universe he/they need to remember that London isn't always best.

Heptathlon
Rowing (x2) (both in teams).
Cycling (team)
Triathlon

Fair enough.
So we just trade the none Yorkshire female rower for the male rower in the 4 man and it's 3 full medals


Ed Clancy was where I got mixed up as both him and the long jumper are ginners

I deserve a medal, just had a tooth pulled with no anesthetic.

If they take their money, would part of the deal be that we wouldn't have to listen to them anymore? Don't be so quick to dismiss it!

Takes two showers and an irrecoverably blackened hankerchief to get clean after a visit. Don't mind it too much in fairness and maybe take it a bit for granted, but couldn't live there.

Smart a little, did it?

Nick Skelton not from Yorkshire at all - don't know why I thought that.

Got him mixed up with his ex cake shop owning cousins didn't you.

The Molar was a bit loose anyway, Dentist said the administering of the anesthetic would probably hurt more than just pulling it, i told him "i don't think so"


He said let me have a look, then "we'll" decide what to do...
Open mouth... yank!...tooth gone...
The 2 assistants didn't expect it either, let out a couple of screams.(the assistants i mean)

Boom boom boom, everybody say "Whayyyoohhhhh".

I see there has been a moderator cull, tryouts soon then?

All inactive mods on all the boards have gone mate.

No tryouts, you have to be nominated by a current mod (Anakin has kindly nominated me), and then go through 10 weeks of intense training and psychometric testing.

I also have the results of the poll I ran a few months ago, where people were unanimously voted in favour of me becoming a mod.

Easty will be my first banning for breaking the new AUP rule 10.4.b, 'no one-eyes'.

I would rather nominate Hutchie.
Sorry.

Welcome back, missed ya... but with the lack of a fanfare from ramakin, i feel as though you've never been far away.


Are Steven Segal and Keanu Reeves the worse biggish movie crappy actors?

I liked the Under Siege trilogy.

Hutchie would also be banned under the 'no one-eyes' rule.

He's a top one-eye.

Yep & Nicholas Cage.

Reeves is definitely the worst. He does that gormless walk from Bill and Ted in every fillem.

I really don't know how reeves became such a big star he's terrible nick cage isn't that bad though and what about Jason statham films totally inplausable but you get so engrossed in them Dylan moran does a good routine about them

It's fairly easy to avoid Keanu Reeves, he doesn't seem to trouble the cinema much, but Nicholas Cage won't take the hint and disappear, Con Air was so over the top that it was amusing but anyone could have played Cameron Poe.

He's terrible, City of Angels has got to be one of his worst films ever & there's been a lot. I just want to slap his turney down fish mouthed face every time I see it.

Can't stand Tom Cruise either, how anyone can imagine him to be a tough guy is beyond me, he's only 5 foot & peanut.
