No just salt and peppered. Not a sniff last night. I need a new baiting up plan I think.

I`m lost Ray, you had 6, gave one away so that left 5, who had the other 2?

Ask Kate after all she hooked you!

This is going to end up with some kind of dangling worm reference isn't it.

I had to refrain and re-word what I really wanted to type.

 

[Ray Stafford]

I`m lost Ray, you had 6, gave one away so that left 5, who had the other 2?

I started with five, as per the OP

Hi All

Your favourite sponsor has FIVE (count them, one, two, three, four, FIVE) Intergas boilers to give away.

And then lower down the OP, I said this:

But that's FOUR weeks and there are FIVE boilers!

Don't worry. One of the winners has already been selected. The first person (apart from the individual concerned) who can tell me who it is, and why, will receive a bottle of champage from me personally to celebrate their percipicacity.

No one guessed, so eventually I had to remind every one that atouchofgas had won a Vogue in a previous survey, but had turned it down because he was too busy. I had been pretty impressed by that, so I gave him a free ride in this event.

So 5 boilers, minus one to atouchofgas, minus one I am about to give away leaves three!

 

[Ray Stafford]

Anyway, I guess you lot are waiting for an announcement about who won?

A good question. And one that I can answer more easily with a drink in my hand. Hang on while I toddle off to the kitchen...brb!

 

[Ray Stafford]

Thats better.

So, before I go on, I think a round of applause is in order for our benefactors at Intergas, for kindly donating several thousand quids worth of boiler to the good people of the forum.

Please show your appreciation for Mr Steve Zouch (Managing Director), Mr Jim Boyce (Sales Director) and Mr Andy Burton (Regional Sales Manager).

My error, thought it was 6.

And for chucking me out last night. :59:

 

[Ray Stafford]

I tell you what, there is a fascinating thread on smoke pellets just started up...

 

[rpm]

But I am afraid I have bad news...

The warehouse was broken into and .................

:clap::clap::clap::clap:

And for chucking me out lady night. :59:

What are you trying to tell us?

 

[Ray Stafford]

But I am afraid I have bad news...

I had hoped to make the final elimination tonight - leaving one deflated loser and one pumped up winner...

Isn't that what everyone was expecting?

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

You've run out of biscuits so it free jelly babies instead.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Isn't that what everyone was expecting?

I know thats what I was expecting...

 

[Ray Stafford]

I certainly wasnt expecting some tuppeny ha'penny merchant to string it out for blummin' ages!

What on earth would have led me to expect that?

 

[Ray Stafford]

So here we go.

Just so you know, there is logic to these things. Its not just me making it up as we go along.

Honest.

Honest.

Wouldn't expect anything else.

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

I'm ready to learn my fate, sink or swim I'll die a happy man!!

 

[Ray Stafford]

So here's how it works.

CH4 is the chemical formula for Methane.

Methane is a flammable gas

Flammable gases can be used to burn things

Like toast

Therefore, CH4 = toast. QED*

Sorry CH4. You're toast.

Congrats Solutions. You are this weeks winner. Someone will be in touch in the next week or so.

Commiserations to the losers, but don't panic - another boiler will go on the block tomorrow night! Get in there...


* that's science, that is!

 

[Ch4 plumbing]

Haha congrats Solutions well done my sone:82:

 

[anz]

Should have chose a better username CH4, might have won then

 

[Rickster123]

Well done solutions. Great prize!

Looking forward to an intergas training session.
