blonde poker forum

This is an appeal on behalf of the Blonde Sheep Quiz

Once, in the not too distant past, the sheep quiz ambled through the
green meadows of the blonde lounge, inciting gasps of admiration
and sighs of delight from all who viewed her.
But time passed, lamb became mutton, and as so often happens in
life, as her teeth yellowed, and the clinkers gathered on her flyblown
fleece, her friends slowly abandoned her.
Supported by the valiant efforts of a few loyal shepherds, she struggled on, only to collapse, almost exhausted at my feet.

Now I have a decision to make. Do I, a rookie, carry on the work of
so many good Sheppard's before me, knowing that I am unqualified
and unprepared for this huge responsibility, or is it kinder to put the old thing out of her misery and let her die a death?

After much soul searching and careful consideration, I have decided.

My answer is NO! Not on my watch!

But! (There's always a but) I can't do this alone. I need YOU! Yes YOU!

Do not turn away from the sheep's suffering.
The faithful few are not enough, we need more Blondes to give just a
little of their time to save an old friend.

Please give generously.

Thank you.









Right everyone, here we go.
Ordinary Sheep quiz rules apply, there are no right or wrong answers,
The most popular answer scores most points.
Googling - Yes
Conferring - No

Any queries, please ask. Any disputes, my decision is negotiable.

Oh, and re: "too good for the quiz"....see my signature ;)

Thank you sir, the sheep sends its love.

It will be reciprocated.

Red, do you post on Betfair Forums per chance?

No. I didn't even know they existed. Why do you ask?

Theres a guy on there with the exact same handle as you, Capital letters and all, he had a 25/1 winning tip recently on there, So I was going to congratulate you if it was you!

C'mon people! The sheep needs do'ers, not viewers!

forgot to say im a do'er ;)

Myself and Laxie Jr. will be tackling this over the week-end.  She's to remind me.  I'm to remind her.  Surely one of us will get it right.

You know all the regs go hit em up with some good old spam.

in ty

Spamming Girgy? That might give people the impression that I have somehow become obsessed with this thing,
that I check my inbox twenty times a day, that I think previous quizzers have an obligation to enter, that I might take it as a personal insult from each and every one of them if THEY DONT ENTER MY FECKING QUIZ! ;nemesis;

Question 2

Brand of Washing Powder
YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTbPS5nUDE0

If you could see the state they're in in at this end you wouldn't believe it. There are reams of paper and piles of pencils (Some broken) everywhere.

The air is thick with the acrid smell of nervous sweat, and there is a wailing and a gnashing of teeth.

ETA (Estimated time of answers) ~ 05:00

I can imagine, I sort of dread winning as I'd be on my own. Joo would be too busy watching footy.  ;D ;D ;D

This is a sheep quiz.  Abuse is expected and nobody is exempt...

GET A MOVE ON FFS!!!

I don't blame her. I've refused to get involved with this because if (When) it goes tits up they would all blame me.

Glad im at work till 3am might just get home for the last question.

Good god!!!  How long does it take to post a thing?!

I get why you're having nothing to do with reveal assistance, but why didn't you enter the quiz Tom?

Question 3 A Roald Dahl book

YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNUXXCwlm-s

I was showing Zelly how it works and saw some of the answers so it wouldn't have been fair.


It's taking a long time cos she's typing the names in every time she posts.

Save answers in notepad in advance FTW. Next time.

Oh the poor girl.  I very nearly genuinely feel sorry for her now.

Bridie has agreed to type, she can do 1000000 wpm.

Patience people patience I admire all question setters give her a break I say! It's a learning curve. ;hattip;

Farcical.

I hereby withdraw my entry in protest.

It's not time getting killed I'm worried about here.

To be honest, this is going great so far :-)

Time for some diversionary tactics. Shall I tell a train story, or discuss concrete cube-testing, to keep everyone amused, bit like the Superbowl half time show?

How about those Broncos?

Only if you promise a wardrobe malfunction in the process...

One of our contestants is missing in action.

They've mislaid a whole player.

Oh Dear God

Bridesmaid again. WD Stribling.

Got there in the end GG Redsgirl and co.

Well played Stribling and thanks Redsgirl, a bit of farce, good fun and all ribbing graciously received as a sheep quiz should be

Geo

Well played Stribling and after tears & tribulations at the Red House (probably) wd for getting there in the end and before 10.30 to boot!

 

ty.

Would you like the honour of hosting one? Or anyone else for that matter?

 If not i may be able to put some questions up tomorrow evening after work.

+1   ;applause; ;hattip;

Well done stribling! Dont even think of passing the quiz on to someone else ;nemesis; ;slavedriver;

Thanks to everyone else for their patience (I did warn you it would be a shambles!)

You done good, thanks

Quiz took my mind of my team playing crap . Thanks 4 unusual quiz

Bum. What's wrong with my memory. Missed another reveal :(

 ;first;  Well done that man!!!    :)up  Looking forward to the next one!  ;slavedriver;

I think Carl Lewis is a clear winner of greatest sportsman ever, but went with Ali cos I reckoned he'd pull the crowds.

Sick of doing terrible and not even getting last for the wooden spoon :(

Well done Redsgirl, RedDog, Mrs Red-Dog and any other Red's that were involved.

Love the typo that made 1960s hthe 1560s for my last answer.

Sure did check my answers before hitting send. Sigh. Would have had a top 3 finish!

Most facial quiz I've ever had the pleasure of bombing in. Good work!

Just caught up with this now - lol at the carnage that was happening, fair play good quiz redsgirl, good effort typing out all those answers!

Fantastic effort Redsgirl, hugely entertaining, thank you.

Please note how nice I am being to you - because I am going to take you to task severely on another thread (a downmarket Diary) very soon. You are SO in trouble.

x

Sorry Mulhuzz, but it was your typo in the pm you sent, Bit like the "most facial quiz I've ever had the pleasure of bombing in" ;D

I have double checked, and I remember thinking "cool, Tudor's fan" at the time. Sigh, your such a disappointment.

nit?

Atarti 2600 actually  ;nana;

+1  :)up

Can't believe I got as high as 47!  :D

Just read through the thread, rotflmfao Didn't have time last night.

What a state we were in. I didn't even have the scores added up until 7:10pm, started at 3:30pm (did have to cook tea inbetween) Then realised I should have had stuff typed and ready to copy and paste :(

Ended up roping in Mrs RED and Redbridie, had 3 lappy's going, 2 logged in as me and dad giving a running commentary on what was happening on his, Bridie and I were franticly typing and posting (thats how we got scores before answers once) while Mrs RED dictated from the various pieces of scribbled on paper that were scattered about the room.

It was a mare, I really hadn't thought it through ;noflopshomer;
I would have still been posting answers today if it wasn't for the last minute help I had.
When I finally finished, exhausted and emotional, I realised that it was gone ten, I hadn't washed the dishes, made the kids beds, ironed uniforms etc  ;gobsmacked;
 Yes it was great fun. Cant wait for the next one!!!!!!!! Come on stribling ;goodluck;

;D Aint Daisy the Aldi one?

 ;hide; What have I done now?

See - "Vegas & The Bonfiremath, an Insipid Diary".

No it's Tesco's cheap brand. I don't buy it!

 rotflmfao Methinks thou doest protest to much!
Nothing wrong with own brand powder Btw, there is a recession on!

There was never any doubt that it was my typo!

How does Bob Marley like his doughnuts?

Wi' jam in!

What does Bob Marley say to his mates when he gives them doughnuts?

"I hope you like jam in too"!

Coat got and on....  ;nana;

  ;D

Thanks for posting that - if you hadn't, I'd have gone to my grave thinking that song was called 'Good Timing'.

Hot on the heels of finding out that Hot Chocolate's song isn't called 'I Believe in Rock On'. Whatever next?
