No @briann, despite having top 10 scores in all 48 levels of Ham ’em High and cast iron proof of 47 of them, I never got my Ultra Sharpshooter badge.  I’ve dropped to 11th and 12th in a couple of levels now but that doesn’t matter. To be frank, it’s ruined my life and I will forever be bitter and twisted about it.  Gaaah!

Probably be a virtual SharpShooter badge @atlas-zulay, as I don’t think there’s any one left to give you one. But good luck. You will need to go outside Classics to catch me up though.

I am enjoying Dear England @briann. Joseph Alberic Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes is perfectly cast as Gareth Southgate. Not sure about the casting for Wayne Rooney. Reviews a bit sniffy though.

Usual story these days. Win one, lose one. Well done. it’s on my (ever-growing) list.

Trying to raise the bunny, @briann?

Three terrible birds takes a trophy. read all about it in today’s Challenge. I am in shock.

Don’t panic @catsnbirds, it wasn’t an accident. I had a pacemaker fitted (hence @briann‘s jukebox selection). You have to avoid disconnecting the wires. I’ve explained it all to Twiggy and she is fine. It’s too hot this week for long walks anyway.

thanks ‘briann, you can’t have any upper-case because my arm is in a sling for a week and my mouth tastes metallic because i am pumped full of antibiotics. can’t lift twiggy up, can’t butter toast and still can’t play the piano.
