Am I too late for the curry night? I'd love to pop over for one   ;)

Looks like I'll be out of the running to win, Rootschat is doing so well!!!!

I think Al swallowed a maths book, wonder if he really knows what he's talking about though, or just trying to blind us all with .... was going to say science, but maybe rubbish is more to the point.  ;D ;D ;D

Not too sure it's going to take as long as Saturday

The critical 00:45 BST time has now been passed which means that Bee can now longer win the bet :'(

Annie looks as though she's sitting pretty but if we don't get those 32 additional members by 5:15pm on Monday, the mantle will pass to Kev Wood.

Think you're pretty safe Annie ;)
