    As you say thats cheating

    My favourites -

    York
    Goodwood (went there as a Bairn, playing on the swings and collecting hundreds of spent betting slips from different bookies)
    Ascot (knobbed a lass by the train station after a Royal Meeting)

    Heres a jolly jape for you for later today

    Pick a random number, residential BT line will be best, call them up and ask to speak to Mr Wall. The response should be "sorry theres no Mr Wall here"

    reply asking for Mrs Wall instead, to which you should get "theres no Mrs Wall here either"

    "what ?" you should say somewhat exasperated, "are there no walls in the house ?"

    "no there aren't" he or she will say -

    "well then how does the feckin roof stay up" should be you final, chortled comment
