do you think she's on here?

She joined today and has been on P & L, to such effect that Redcogs has joined the Conservative Party, Gary Askwith has bought six patio heaters and Flying Monkey is going whaling.

no wonder you're hiding in the café…

Not half - she knows considerably more law than I do.






























A chorus of "But that's not difficult."

 

[Night Train]

she annoyed me on radio 4 this morning, momentarily, because she comes across as posh. but then, when you get to know a posh person, they're mostly OK.

When I am compelled to 'have words with' the local yobs requesting that they would be better placed to use the toilet before they left home rather then to urinate on my neighbour's gate post they often tell me to stop 'talking posh' at them!

Well, if you will say, "Stop ****ing ****ing on the ****ing gate post, you ****ing ****ers" what do you expect?

You never know - she might be a champagne socialist. In which case she'll have you screaming for the return of Clause Four and surrendering your greenhouses to Redcogs' People's Potato-Growing Collective...

I have been told I even sound posh when I swear, and that isn't often.

A flutter of eyelashes and the task would be achieved without argument.

last night's final was spectacular stuff.

University Challenge is Blockbusters without the fun of asking for a P.

I'm always slightly disappointed when Oxbridge teams do well on UC, but fair play to Miss Trimble, she was absolutley awsome.

(Though I did know a few that she didn't...)

I have nothing but admiration for someone with that amount of knowledge who can apply it under pressure like that.

I thought she came across pretty well. I think she could be a star.

Actually, you could be spot on.

When I was on UC....

stop right there. I may be falling in love....

It should be quite easy to have a University Challenge Cycle Chat stylee. The question master types in the question and the teams (groups of 4 representing P+L and Chat) type the answer in. The questionmaster awards ten points to the first correct answer. The supplementaries wouldn't be any fun, because the team in control could quite easily google away to their hearts content, but the first finger on the buzzer routine for the tenpointers would preclude that.

Anybody want to get a team together for next Monday at 8pm?

(later edit - if srw and flying monkey are on the same team they have to have bonj)

When I was on UC,

Photo or clip please - we know you have one, don't get coy and deny it.

What was it like to meet Bamber Gascoigne anyway?

On the subject of Miss Trimble, all the girls round my way when I was growing up talked like her, I don't see the problem, it's just an accent. Also for the record, I find smart birds women very attractive, my ex from Uni went on to finish a PhD at Lancaster and worked at Cern as a theoretical mathematician. - and she was a pretty good cook, which was a bonus.
