Another pointless thread

All the best Stan, take things easy today!

I'm only a nipper so (at 37).
Makes me feel young!

Thank you all for the warm wishes. Had a nice day at the Metro Center, only a Pentax 90 for sale in CEX (apart from loads of games phones ipads ipods iphones and a couple of nikon canon cameras and lenses) . Had a lamb burger in redcurrant and ginger sauce and a very welcome cup of tea in Hand Made Burger Co. Will spend the rest of this evening in front of the telly. No chocs, cakes, etc due to high blood sugar levels and forthcoming visit to diabetic clinic

Sounds like you had a good day! I shall celebrate your birthday by going for a Chinese meal once Pointless is over.

Happy Birthday Stan.

(I'm only about a quarter of a century behind you).

Happy birthday Stan!!

No HG... I'm 'only' 33

Dave I have the body which is 60 but a mental age of about 10. LOL Well especially when the twins are round ours and they are 7.

Happy birthday Stan glad you had a good day.

Happy Birthday, Stan
Mind you, at 76, you are all making me really feel ancient!!

That sounds a bit of alright Stan ... Have you moved on to something stronger than the tea by now.....jeff... Gwyn... Pointless ..? please enlighten...

[quote:3496ace15f="jeffstclair" Gwyn... Pointless ..? please enlighten...[/quote]Pointless is a quiz show on BBC1. Presented by Alexander Armstrong and Richard Osman.
The aim of the game is to come up with some little known fact on a theme (such as hits of certain 1960s groups amongst others today) which 100 other people, given 100 seconds, couldn't think of. A pointless score adds 250 quid to the prize pot. Every episode also adds 1000 to it. Currently at a record level of over 16,000 pounds!!
The two presenters are friends from Uni and have a really good rapport and a great sense of humour.
Definitely one of the better offerings on the Beeb nowadays.

I am a sad person. I admit it. But the timing for me of the programme is perfect - 18.15 to 19.00.

Happy Birthday Stan

Ah yes the BBC quiz show..

... I liked the name of their special...

..............Pointless Celebrities...

Summs them up really!

Cheers Stan, beer's going down well after a session on the climbing wall.

You allowed beer to fall off a wall Shame on you

Thanks again for all the Birthday Greetings.

jeffstclair. I'd have loved a glass of the Malt but am saving myself until after pending diabetic clinic visit, sticking to a more or less strict diet.

Gwyn. I agree about Pointless, I think Alexander Armstrong can say volumes with his facial expressions without saying a word but I sometimes wonder who are the 100 people they ask the questions first :
