[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

For further good news, I have moved back to Scotland (yay!).

And, now, I have the Intarweb connected.

Beamed back to Earth, then? 

[Pachyderm]

Yep. The West Midlands are effectively the dark side of the Moon.

Now I can see actual trees when I get up, and the air is fresh, and I don't have to filter the water or anything. It's fabulous.

Yep. The West Midlands are effectively the dark side of the Moon.

But with less atmosphere.

I should still put something in the water if I were you; just to be sure.

[Pachyderm]

Oh, we do. It's called uisge-beatha.

[Darlica]

Water of life, right?

Do you prefer it peaty, smoky or fiery?   

[Black Bart]

Oh, we do. It's called uisge-beatha.

Och aye...put a drop o Laphroaig in it for me.

[Opsa]

I am thrilled to hear our beloved Pach-Man is in a happier place.

(I was going to say "a far better place" but it sounded too macabre.)

[Pachyderm]

My personal favourite is The Bunnahabhain 25 year old.

Sweet, soft, golden.

But at £160 a bottle, not a common beverage for me. (All in good time, the well-paid job will turn up...)

I tend to prefer the milder whiskies, but will happily indulge in any single malt or decent blend.

And, Opas, it is a far better place. I just need a card strung round me neck that says "I ATENT DEAD".

We always end the quiz with a glass of Laphroaig...it smells like TCP so it's purley medicinal.

What a stupid quiz if it always ends with the same question. Must encourage repeat custom. A case for the monopolies commission.

[pieces o nine]

Yarrrgh. All yer postes sounde loike a cranky ole bat t'day.

Wot ales ye?

Griffin's just jealous of me quaffing Laphroaig and getting to shout 'Yes it is, no it isn't.'

[Griffin NoName]

  Bart's right. Constantly wish I was up to Quiz Night.

My new laptop arrived. Now I need to have the courage to unpack it.

[Kiyoodle the Gambrinous]

Now I need to have the courage to unpack it.

Just imagine how much fun you can have with the box, like building a box fortress... Maybe that will help you find the courage.

[Black Bart]

It can't be as bad as unpacking a new Large Hadron Collider or a new dvd recorder...can it?
