Can we get a “free” pup if we can guess tomorrow’s Challenge level?

There’s random and then there is…well, not very random. Another Death Star level. That’s three since we last had anything from ABo. Very niche indeed. But, and here’s the the thing, true randomness looks nothing like what most people expect it to look like.  So I’m prepared to sit this one out and wait my turn. In a month’s time we will all be…[Read more]

Did you put a dog treat up there?

Hi @birdleader I was looking at the update log and there is a link to the older release dates but now it takes you to Rio.Have these archives been lost or can they be retrieved?If it’s not an easy fix I don’t want to add to your work load and it’s probably only me that pokes around these dusty old files.Maybe you…[Read more]

If Dupont stays fit France will Grand Slam it.

Moderation in all things my friends,except wine.

Awaiting moderation.

How can I tell you @hunnybunny without getting moderated again? But in truth, I don’t know. It wasn’t about you.

Wales 28-0 down at half time against France.  Good job I’m not Welsh. Not this year at any rate.

Arrgghhh, moderation again. X, Instagram etc may be heading one way but the Nest is bucking that trend.

Definitely more bitter than sweet with the kind of dry sarcasm you only really associate with British pop.

After bigging up Agency I’m tempted to backtrack a little.As good as the acting and storyline was they seem to have lifted it scene for scene from the French version which is a bit lazy so now I’m bigging up Le Bureau des Legendes.

Apart from Lennon/McCartney, I would say Paul Heaton is a match for every other song-writer Britain has ever produced. There are just so many great songs, and with two different bands. And lyrically, he’s a far more interesting listen than most of the Beatles’ songs.

They certainly had a great line in bittersweet. Here’s my thruppence barpenceworth. https://youtu.be/2lGzJwksSv4?si=6K8Y-aqg5K_dqizO

Still enjoying myself in The Wayback Time Machine playing some old levels of AB Friends(not even The TARDIS has that facility) when the levels had substance and were not made with toilet paper and matchsticks. There’s even a bunch of levels in honour of Green Day, which reminds me…

You are a very naughty person, @hunnybunny.

I wonder how often this was accidentally played on mainstream daytime radio.

It must be admitted @hunnybunny, that while Bangor pier has the superior length, Penarth has the superior girth. I feel a song coming on…

I think then @birdleader, we just leave the Challenge as it is and maintain a frisson of the unexpected. Other than that one of us ought to step up to the plate and manage it.  If we are not prepared to do that, then we shouldn’t put more pressure on you to fine tune it.

Genuflects obsequiously.

Awaiting moderation.

See today’s challenge level is another one of those previously banned from the list. Meanguy has a top score 20k higher than anyone else. He wasn’t allowed a puppy yet his score stands?! “I put on my exploding platforms and everything went ‘BOOM!'”

No to challenges that only allow ABO and Seasons as there are some people who…[Read more]

Size isn’t everything. So which is better, Bangor pier or Penarth pier? There’s only one way to find out… “(((Go Compare!!!)))”

Poor Wynne guess he’s in the Wallace doghouse.

@hunnybunny. Bangor pier won Pier of the Year in 2022. It was commended for having the best panoramic view of any pier in the UK. When Penarth won in 2024, Bangor was third. So, in truth, these two Welsh piers are the cream of the crop. Llandudno, which fancies itself, hasn’t won in 20 years and can’t even stand up in a storm. I am a Bangor pier…[Read more]
