Why when a poker players sends a fellow player good wishes do they invariably do it twice or more?

As in "glglgl" rather than just "gl"?


A bit like this you mean?

I don't remember saying I don't do it myself Smiley

In fact I was in the middle of typing a plethora of gl's when I thought to myself "why am I doing this?"

I always thought this was because hatchback aerodynamics tend to 'suck' the air (and whatever's in it, i.e. rain) onto the rear screen, whereas saloons don't.

Why is money spent making The One Show?

Admittedly it can't be much money, I dare say Giles Brandreth pays them for the chance to be on, but they must have to pay some of the staff.

The only good bits are the horrible segues:

"...Little Tommy died shortly after that was filmed and our thoughts go out to his family."

I will not hear a word against Giles Brandreth.

I went to his show at the Edinburgh Festival a couple of years ago and I have never laughed more in a 30 minute period than then.

My sides literally hurt as I left.

Incredibly funny man.

I have a book of his, actually: a Scrabble companion. All the little words and a few anecdotes of great games, scores and plays.

He also, for many years, ran the Teddy Bear museum in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Meh, probably a bad example of the paucity of talent on display. But the pieces he does for TOS are insignificant frippery at it's worst.
