Usually a day for a forum competition, then we put all of the names of those people who got the correct answers into a hat.

We then take the hat to the Cobden View Pub and get someone to pull the names out - five times in this case.

Last week the competition closed in less than a day. Hence the question, duly answered by Mick
In reply to Toreador: When is the end of the week? Algeria has just changed theirs!

Leafing through it now. Looks absolutely fantastic.

And in fabled tradition: Cool for Cats harder than Manzoku though? Not sure about that...and I'm still not convinced how you do Clean Hand Blues Band at less than E2 5c...
