Brilliant! And thanks for all your work.
Congrats to Wren - good stuff and a load of larfs from him as usual.
Thanks, folks.
& big thanks to Throngsman & everyone else for all the other great stories.
Well done Wren. Great month.
And well done everyone else too.
As always a Big Up to TM for filling in the forms and keeping tabs.
Yes, well done Wrenfoe, considering you are also the editor.
Congrats to Wren and thanks to the Throngster.
Well done all.
Congrats Wren and thanks as ever Throngsman
Er there may have been a clerical error, though. I managed, through sheer luck, to have 5 FPs in May - 11th 18th 23rd 27th & 30th, I think
The blog appears to back you up. I'm off out so can't address this until tomorrow. I seem to have some gremlins in my spreadsheet - time to get it up on jacks, I think. Apologies.
Thanks! It's only a game!
So is Russian roulette.
Now that's an idea - it would be more interesting if the runner-up of WOTM had to commit ritual suicide.
... if the runner-up ... had to commit ritual suicide
It would gee up the Conservative leadership contest too !
it would be more interesting if the runner-up of WOTM had to commit ritual suicide.
It would also increase your chance of getting your work on the front page.
Reading the writer's guide might help, too. Just general advice.
if the runner-up of WOTM had to commit ritual suicide.
This hasn't been thought through properly - particularly in respect of May's result...
I think this is more accurate. I'd added a space after the b in the first event of you getting a FP - Excel then autofilled the other four times with a space and I hadn't checked. I think I diddled DE out of a point (now restored) by the same error.
I got trapped inside the trump baby blimp and have finally been released so I can perform the mugging.
A mug for wrenfoe and a six shooter and single bullet for chip ...
Congrats to all and thanks to throngsman
Thanks TechGuy. You kept poor Wren waiting nearly as long as Prince Charles for his rightful crown.
