Over on 2+2 they've got some clever script to make life easier. I like the idea of taking turns, perhaps the winner of the previous week can have first refusal? |

You would have thought that somewhere there would be a current total, but can I find it? The 44m figure came from data in June 2008, before the paperback was published! It only needs another 2m to get into the top 15 by my reckoning. I'm going to phone Bloomsbury in the morning  . |

Still unhaappy about my disgraceful Hilton treatment, and the moral fibre of the quiz master giving in to such blatant bullyng......
Ok I have slept on this and thought about it throughout the day. I have looked at the issue from your prospective and have to say "whatever" I totally agree with you. FMP x |
