It’s one more potassium related story than most of us have

When I had my cardiac arrest, my potassium level was 8. Apparently, it should be no higher than 5. The doctor said I was very lucky.

Were you hard to treat sitting in the sink?

Just watched Xmas University Challenge...sad to watch Paxman

Glad it’s just not me.
Last night commented to the Mrs he isn’t looking or sounding well.

If he had said K would he be closer?

Off the top of my head I have iron and neon and gold. Pretty sure that there must be a three letter one.

Tin.
And they just won £140k

Ha ha.
There was a fire in the sink which was exacerbated by the inevitable water pouring. As anecdotes go it's possibly not going to get me on the after dinner circuit but it was the only potassium related story I had in my locker. I feel that I have let you down. ;-(

Work on your delivery before going on Graham Norton’s red chair.

It wasn't exactly a sink. It was in Resus at Stepping Hill, but I was a bit confused at the time, so it might have been.

I ought to have got tin, not exactly obscure.

My mother was a teacher and she told me a story of when the cleaner knocked a jar of potassium into the sink. You can probably guess the rest.

She tucked you in, turned the light off and you had a wank?

The parting shot was something “galore” Agbon said “I’ve no idea what galore means”.

Pussy ?

Not a quiz show, but on talkSPORT this morning, Brazil doin a quiz Cascerino v Agbonlahor, “in snowdonia, what is the name of the highest mountain?”,
Agbonlahor “mmmmmmmm, Swansea???”
Cascarino “ mmmm Mount Blanc?”….
[/QUOTE]
Cascarino is an unusual guy. Made a great career from what I consider average footballing ability. Played with top teams like Chelsea, Marseilles, Celtic and Belgrade.
Is on several radio shows as a pundit and has made a load of money as a professional poker player.
I wonder is he a bit like Roy Keane, appearing to be a bit dopey but having a business brain behind it all.

It's not a "him"
It's a mountain.

Pointed out that Jimmy Carr show last week that I'd watched earlier before it hit live TV.

Well the episode (2) that I saw was on late last night, I can only imagine that anyone who saw it is too stunned to post.
