Happy Bloody Friday! And happy birthdays to Catherine Zeta-Jones (39) and Will Smith (40) today too!

Two goldfish are in a tank. One says to the other - "How do you drive this thing?!" Did you know that whilst America produces the most cheese, Italy consumes the most cheese per head? And that Mars (the planet, not the chocolate bar...) has its own flag!

Last week's Quiz For A Pint - the word 'paparazzi' was coined in the film 'La Dolce Vita.' This week's QFAP - give me an example of a myoclonic jerk. Weather this weekend: warm and sunny. Easy guys :)

Happy Bloody Friday! And a big happy 37th birthday to Lance Armstrong. Did you know that there's a place in the Arizona desert called Snowflake?!

Stephen Hawking went on a date last week. He ended up with smashed glasses, a black eye, a broken leg and a 2 cracked ribs! Apparently his date stood him up.

This week's Quiz For A Pint - Where was the word 'paparazzi' coined? Clue - it's not a place. Last week's QFAP answer - Sailor Jerry's first name was Nelson! Rainy drab weather forecast for this weekend guys, sorry. Have fun!

Haaaaaappy Bloody Friday! Summer is back! Albeit, somewhat temporarily. Today we remember 8 years since the 9/11 attacks in New York. To any Egyptians and Ethiopians - Happy New Year!

Last week's Quiz For A Pint - there is no definitive answer. Edison only made the first long-lasting, practical light bulb. This week's QFAP - what was Sailor Jerry's real first name? In the news this week a cement mixer crashed with a prison bus. The public are being warned to look out for hardened criminals.

Have a good weekend gang!

Happy Bloody Friday! And to any Argentinian's - hope you have a happy Immigrant's Day... whatever that is.

Did you know that only humans can get warts? And that there was once (early 20th century) a Labour MP called 'Seymour Cocks'! This week's QFAP - who invented the light bulb? (...clue... it's not who you think it is). Last week's answer is Dylan Thomas' Under Milk Wood. I saw an amputee being hanged earlier - it was horrible, all I could do was shout letters at him!

Weather this weekend - Sunday it's gonna piss down, again. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts!
