Offside, ref!

On the whole I prefer the Grand National.

Reminds me of 'Its a knockout'.
One of the could have stuck a giant head on and played their joker.

The other halves of the vans are entered in the Net Zero Race because they use no fossil fuels. First prize a night dining with Ed Miliband, second prize two nights dining with Ed Miliband...

dearieme - I prefer those wife-carrying races. As a spectator of course.

Mike - yes it is like 'Its a knockout'. The giant head could be an image of Keir Starmer as the joker.

DJ - I don't like the idea of a night dining with Ed Miliband - unless it's a bacon sandwich menu perhaps.

Is the night out with crazy Ed in a quiet place with no witnesses?

Our primary school sports day always included an Obstacle Race which I thoroughly enjoyed. My wife once wondered about making a gift to our university, subject to its holding a Principal and Deans' egg-and-spoon race every summer.

dearieme - a Principal and Deans' egg-and-spoon race would be fun because you could take bets on who was likely to hold the egg on the spoon with their thumb.
