Watching Ravi Bopara turning back the years.Has he played a better innings?One of only a handful of players still playing in The Blast who was there at the start.One of the others is of course our mate Samit Patel.

Carbonite Melt News

There is no CMN except to say Jar Jar Bloody Binks…again…

Seems to spend a lot of time sleeping @desperate-dan.A two seater all to herself?Spoilt rotten.

Sadly symptomatic of World cups these days .Football WC also becoming bloated with 48 teams next year and I believe 64 is a number being talked about for 2030.Just results in yet more meaningless one sided matchups and overall quality suffers.Best WC ever was 1970 where 16 teams qualified but every game seemed to matter.

Rumours of Donalds death are quite worrying.Vance is Veep.

Pity about the Eliminator tonight.Hardly a Hundred game ruined by the weather and now this.Hope the final goes ahead as I think it’s a tournament that has improved year on year.Deserves a fitting finale.

I do like it’s quirkiness so I hope the new investors don’t try to homogenise it into just another T20 tournament.

Accidently swallowed some scrabble tiles.Suffering some awful vowel movements.

Had my first eye test in over 5 years yesterday and not because I’d noticed a deterioration in my vision but had sat on my glasses one too many times.Surprised to find my distance vision had improved?!Hooray!But now I need reading glasses.Boo!Also have to pay for two subscriptions now!GGGaaaaahhhhh!!!!

As I went in I noticed a pal inside who was…[Read more]

Well my luvvies seems my Carbonite Meltdown yesterday did the the trick(more like a mild whinge than a Medvedev).Stormtrooper appeared this morning and given I only needed 3,000 pts even I couldn’t flub that one.

It seems Mr Bunny is already in training…https://youtu.be/dbc_CxwRTG0?si=_B-bvEt67dBYq98x

Carbonite Melt being very mean,it’s almost as if the game knows which characters I need and is witholding them.Surely Rovio wouldn’t do that?I even had a Hans Solo Carbonite…in the Melt…how is that even possible?

To more important matters hope all is well @honeybunny must be your operation soon.At least you know what to expect and hope Mr…[Read more]

To be fair he is built like a brick bungalow.If Sontarans played cricket it’d look like that.

You know I like an anagram so Samit Patel provided :

malt pastie

pitta meals

lam patties

meat pastil (desert obviously)

All served with Tamil paste.

For fans of The Simpsons there is Patti Selma

For fans of Baywatch there are Pamela Tits (Liam…[Read more]

To be fair to Jonny Bairstow I think he has been sharing the pies,with Samit Patel.

My son moved into his teenage years in Feb so getting used to an extra quotient of cheek.Lately whenever I ask him a question he says “I dunno Jeff.”

Obviously trending with his mates.So I asked if he knew where it came from and of course he said “I dunno Jeff”.So I played him this:https://youtu.be/McdjBaChdBA?si=DZlct07wRp5R6HPj

See Wazza wasn’t on MOTD but I’m sure it’s just a matter rotation.Or is it?

“Sacked in the morning,you’re getting sacked in the morning…”

C’mon Dan the men’s team are on a roll after beating Japan.One and counting.

Thanks @desperate-dan but after missing out by a few hundred points yesterday I might give it a swerve.

Think it’s all that scrum activity erm and as with the women’s football team the testosterone.

Tough Challenge think like last night’s I may have left it too late.

Seasons challenge eh?

Had a look at the Challenge for the first time in months @desperate-dan and found more tumbleweed there than in the BP.Is that par for the course these days or just a wet Thursday in Rio?

OK so I got 3HDS in the Carb Melt today(my recollection of once getting 5 in a go wasn’t too far off the mark).Shouldn’t complain but 4 would’ve been brilliant as some Nester left a breadcrumb guiding me to a Darth Sideous level where you’re pretty much guaranteed 150k points.

Annoyingly I now have 6 reward levels where 1 character will…[Read more]
