Shoeburyness.....Where else could it be after being a "star turn" on the other quiz


BDB

No more Southend now, I feel. As for BDB, that would be Broadbottom, so once again we go from (one of) my local area(s) to yours.

Oh no... I linked to the forbidden thread again

[Eagle]

Oh, he calls me old too, and I'm half the age older than him than you.

 

[Ivo]

Hmm... I've just done a little post evaluation (which took a painstakingly long time - not). I've made approximately 1,250 posts since I came back on the 11th of October (not counting the brief stay five days earlier). My post count has gone up by less than 400. That means nearly 3 in 4 posts I've made since returning have been in the Quiz forum hock:

EDIT, 18½ hours later: Aw, I've just realised. My first post doesn't count in my statistics because it was in the old Name the Town thread

I estimate that, allowing for Quiz postings, I am on roughly 6,000. From less than two years. Oops. But I'm not working that out!

Oh, he calls me old too, and I'm half the age older than him than you.

hock: I've seen your birthday, but I didn't realise he did it to you as well! Counter measures may be required...

Still in NT territory: POP

Subtle move...but did you not think that I had not noticed you had not answered the clue in the previous posting.....FLM...

Oops. How the Hell did I manage that one? It's not as though I don't know it; I must have just omitted it! Flimby
