After promising D Charlton a prize for cleverly realising I was testing my readership here..

I asked him for two things to write about here…

This is your prize Douglas.  Enjoy

There once was a chap called Mahinda,

Who slept with a viking called Ljinda,

He showed her his shiny new balls

and she made kitten mew calls

once his helmet was horned he then binned her!

I’m tied up today, but I will endeavour to create Mims’ prize for tomorrow, I promise!

Two things to add today.

Giles Clarke is gonna get Suave Smashed.  Stephen Brenkley from The Independent is too much of a light weight to do the job properly.  When you grow up on the mean streets of Basildon, fighting becomes an important skill!

Pakistan = Rubbish.  They were beaten like an abused housewife by India yesterday, which is funny as hell, especially after Geoff Lawson wanted them to inflict serious pain upon them!

Hello one and all,

It’s time for the weekly quiz of wonderment, so here goes!

Remember, you get a big shiny picture of pure delight as a prize, see here for previous winners!

Suave South African, now shakes uncontrollably!

It’s a tough one, so get your thinking caps on..



Park’s Prize of a Picture Metaphor!

Hark, Park done won that there quiz from last week!

Here is his prize.  A made up picture of pure delight!  For those who aren’t Australian, I’ve cleverly used part of Wolf Blass’ advertising slogan to bag McGill (if any one from Wolf Blass sees this and wants to send me a case to offer as a prize, then feel free!! RED PLEASE!)*

I reckon this one\'s off..

* If they do send me a case, none of you fuckers are getting any of it!  IT’S ALL MINE I TELLS YA!

You get a poncey picture of no real delight, and you’ll be bloody grateful!

David Barry wins ANOTHER made up picture of pure delight!

David Barry from statty heaven Pappus’ Plane, the first twotime winner of the weekly quiz of wonderment, correctly guessed that it was Michael Atherton, in yesterday’s quiz!

Former leggy. Cockroach with bad back.

He was a legspinning all-rounder in his younger days. Steve Waugh nicknamed him the cockroach, as you couldn’t stamp him out, and he suffered from Ankylosing Spondylitis for most of his career.

That makes David, the king of the six word quiz.

Bow before his supreme knowledge.

And here is his lovely prize.

Statisticians do it continuously but discretely.



It’s time for the weekly quiz of wonderment!

That time again children.

Last weeks winner was Jrod @ Cricket With Balls, for successfully guessing Ray Lindwall.

This weeks, is as follows.

Former leggy.  Cockroach with bad back.

Good luck ladies and gentlemen.



The weekly quiz of wonderment. Six words, guess who it is!

This weeks quiz is as follows.

UPDATE

I may have exaggerated this slightly, by a mis-reading of his wikipedia page. He took three wickets in four overs against Victoria. He then scored 138no against queensland in the next match. I thought he’d done both against Victoria, so I’ve changed it slightly..

Further Update: Jrod has guessed correctly.  Ray Lindwall was the answer.

Proper quick, unstoppable yorker. A dragon

This is a tough one, but I’m sure someone will get it..
