So that's an 15 Indian head massages for our winner , Toybox!!
2nd place enjoying an Indian summer, away from all the snow, it's Hygienic Dispenser on +7
Sharing 3rd place and so splitting the bill for the Indian takeaway it's Mal and Stunning Frenchie on +6
But looking a bit pale and in need of fluids, it's an awful case of The Dheli Belli for our loser Logic on -5.


And taking a break from my usual epithet, spare a thought for me, Clive, your elf - because you people are all MAD!


Now, fillerup.

QI Bonus (+6)
---------------------
Toybox (72) - "Turf Comics"

And he's working on a new series, too

Here Clive, have an

Mercy!

I love the fact I got a DGI for stating the bleedin obvious!

This is my kinda QI!

Well, I got a QI for plugging in one of my favourite comics. Apparently Clive was in a festive mood

Well DGIs needn't not be 'bleedin' obvious' they are whatever help steers the discussion towards the correct answer. Astroturf being synthetic was exactly the sort of thing that should get a DGI - it's only 1 point, but it's a reward for decreasing general ignorance.

I was. But I feel down some stairs yesterday so consider that a grace period.

At least you're not 'Icy North' or I might start feeling *really* vindictive!

I know I know, I was being helpful

Just as a matter of interest, what were the klaxonned things that we all somehow managed to avoid?

Klaxons:

- They prefer Cricket.
- Don't celebrate New year
- Don't give gifts
- Astroturf is made from Reconstituted Beef Gelatine.
- Violates The Vedic Scriptures
- Flex spells the mystic "Om!"
- anyone saying "Om!"


I *really* should have had Cows.

Oh and

- Yogis or Babas as source of instruction.

i know this was a really long one, but can i get my measly +1 DGI point for post 140 please?

oooh. - how'd I miss that?

Of course.

Tzjin DG +1.

I'll notify Bob.
