Sorry - forgot to post this before I left. The Savage one is this week/month/year's winner although an honourable mention to Tonto who finished half way down but would have won with less interest in crumpet and more in cheese. Quiz-zoners also appear to be a porky bunch judging by the near unanimous desire to lose weight. Anyway, over to Sav...

As you can see, a very close match with Mr H winning even though he wasn't as popular a pet as he thought he'd be! Only Rod put what I would've about barbecuing your nether regions............
The wildrovers, we notice, have obviously had some kind of hideous ironing mishap together which is probably best unelaborated upon Twisted Evil

Over to you Savage....................revive our sagging forum......hurrah!

Apologies for the delay in processing Embarassed

My answer for 1 would have been massive double cab pickups, I think I was first served in a pub at 15, the smell which takes me back to childhood would have been creosote

Full answers from the spreadsheet:

JUS (#) = SOLAR POWERED ANNE SUMMERS BACK SCRATCHING DEVICE

wildrover ($) = 10. Gocompare.com - why not justf**koff.com

#10 took a long time and raised my blood pressure. Honorary mentions go to:

1. Injury lawyers for You - There's no such thing as "the wrong type of ladder" you cock - just the wrong type of mentally deficient employee who hurt themselves through their own stupidity and sue their employer.
2. Those nauseatingly sickly Just for Men ads - more ties? Get a life.
3. Webuyanycar.com - aggravating, monotonous din
4. Sheila's Wheels - need I say more
5. Any Halifax advert - from Howard to the silly bint doing her impression of a turkey to Ice Ice Baby to High fiving to Spandau Ballet - pukable.
6. Would anyone seriously employ Gavin from Autoglass?
7. Cash my Gold - I loathe Dale Winton and I loathe companies who profiteer by paying idiots half the true market value of their trinkets. It should be illegal.
8. Any of those Over-50s Healthcare plans that callously tug at the heartstrings of grandparents while failing to point out that in 80% of cases the relatives get less out than they put in - disgusting.
9. Glade - I want to poo at Paul's? I want to take a dump on the whiny little brat's head.
10. And first runner up - Nintendo Train your Brain with Ant and Dec. If you're going to have a product to improve your mental powers why on earth would you advertise it using two tossers with scarily Neanderthal foreheads who've barely learned to grunt?

Phew sorry about that but I feel better now. I think I'm going to have to stop working from home with the TV on in the background...

Congratualtions to Buzzie, over to you
