Well i will thank you!
I knew Lazio's badge had a big bird on it but wasn't sure what it was.
And I guessed the northwest edge of the Empire would have been Britain but i was thinking a fort rather than a wall so was thinking of some kind of fort in Chester or York......

I want to go on the chase. When I watch it on tele I usually do quite well - but I know I'd crumble under pressure and be awful on the day.

And someone would put all your stupid answers on here :-)

Have you ever heard of a Planner on your TV ?Or, are you still on a ten Bob metered rental from Grenada, set in a wooden cabinet that took 7 Navvies to fetch it out a van?

It may also interest you that I stay nowhere near you and couldn’t give a single fuck what time is tea or dinner round your way.

and thirdly, do you even understand the concept of taking the piss, having a moan, irony where you exaggerate to make a point and hope it amuses? Clearly fucking not.

I may need to seek help but not for the reason you identify, no no,I may need help to understand how some things just go right over peoples heads when for most the intention is clear.

Oh, as a final aside, my dinner is 8 o’clock, I am proper posh.

You'll have had your tea.
