The whole 19 yards is a new quiz show on TV where the contestants have to know the answer to a question before they set off over 19 yards of obstacles and press the buzzer. The first one to press the buzzer has to then answer the question to win.

We have four contestants
1. Army fitness man
2. Cage fighter
3. Podiatrist girl with long blonde hair
3. Wee girl who is a uni grad

Boys at an advantage then


Question 1: Which country"s currency is the Dong
No one goes

Question 2: Which country"s currency is the Bhat
No one goes

Looking good


Question 3: Which country"s currency is the Rand
One wee girl sets off

Question 4: Which country"s currency is the Yen
The other three set off

Army fitness man hits the buzzer first (he went on the Yen)

Cage fighter hits it second (He went on the Yen)

Wee girl who went on the Rand is third

Fitness man"s answer  - China  ;D

Fighters answer - India  ;D

WTF

We girl gets South Africa and the other three have it all to do again. When God was giving out brains he missed out a couple.

Priceless.......

The last game was more about skill and it was the wee gorl v the Army man

Wee girl won by a street and got the answer wrong  ::)

Army guy comes in about a week later and is the winner.

He then went on to win £20,000 in the final round by the skin of his teeth. If he had half a brain he would have won the £100,000

Shows how good I am running at the moment.

We have an electonic device in the security gatehouse at the Swindon depot and it is compulsary to press it every time you leave the site.

It then either flashes "Pass" or "Search" - If it flashes search you have to turun out your pockets and open any bags etc that you have.

So it"s 50/50 - it"s a coin toss......

Three times i have pressed it in the last couple of days and three times it has flashed "Search"

FFS I run so good...

I never did finish the Anne O'Neill story did I (last November was the last instalment I believe) well I must really do that and will commit fingers to keys later on today. For now I am chilling out after three days in Swindon, That place has serious issues I can tell you.

Watching the rugby and downing a couple, might fire up some tables, but to be honest the way I am running at the moment maybe not.

Now Anne O'Neill....................

...and what a game of rugby it was! Would sooner face Bath than Wasps but it"s gonna be tough whoever it is.

Brilliant effort from The Tigers to finish top of the pile - just got to negotiate the play-off money-making scheme now :-(

I watched this last  night, in disbelief that 1 girl didn"t know the country where Stonehenge was from, and even the commentator mentioned, "if she dosnet know which country stonehenge is, will she be able to find the buzzer",  ;D ;D
