Magic is real, just look around you, some of the most amazing things have no reason, no explanation but are very real.

Top prize is £30,000 but what are the odds? as you have proved it could be anything

It's one of those places I keep saying I'll visit but have never got round to it. Mrs.M went there with some friends a few weeks back and thoroughly enjoyed it - apparently you get to find out how they put the 'yolks' in the creme eggs!AJ82 wrote:you have Cadburys world I am so jelous

Well, this is what gets me about these games. When you see all the answers revealed, they turn out to be really obscure. That's why I once described them as coconut shys - they look simple but you spend good money getting taken for a ride.
Some of the ones on freeview are hillarious though when the poor presenter has to keep pattering while waiting for anyone to call.

The worse one i know (i am waiting for it to start!) is the quiz world on channel 37 (smile TV). The presenters looked stoned and the backdrop looks like a screensaver
Yes the answers are obscure. They did a crossword thing once on quizcall. This question went on for 7 hours solid
You could call 100 times and never get through.

Those Quiz programs really bug me...
...but I still end up watching them
The chance of winning "The Mint" is so small, I can't imagine anyone getting it. I know someone won the 1st mint a few weeks ago now, but they already gave the first 2 digits. This time you have to guess ALL FOUR!!!
This Quiz tv stuff is the tv equivalent of those freebee scratch cards - a con.
Anyway, been revising today. Can't stand it. I don't think I will make a very good engineer

1:15am I am off to bed too tired to keep going now. Hope you have a good night and I will have a read in the morning.

Black... rings under my eyes!
Just returned tonight from North Wales and a fantastic sun drenched holiday! I walked up Snowdon, swam off the coast of Anglesea, learned to pick the lock of a pair of Hiatts handcuffs (oh yeah and walked around a Sheffeld Festival on Saturday talking random nonsense to unsuspecting hippies dressed as a mad farmer with my mate).
Got back to find my Outlaw Wallet had arrived from the good old US of A!! WOOOHOO!!
Now I'm sitting here wondering wether to stay up and watch the rerun of Paul Merton's Silent Clowns on at 3am on BBC3 about Laurel and Hardy, decisions, decisions...

It's very good. The one on Keaton was amazing. I'd never really considered him, but as misdirection goes, watching a man clearly fall squarely on his head, then rewinding the tape nd watching frame by frame only to discover that he did everything BUT fall on his head was a revelation.
