    Sorry Rube, even with the clue I have no idea, it looks a little ill-designed to me. Gross?

    Edit, hang on, I have just looked it up and I really don't see where your clue fits into its name? :)

    Well, I think Tamworth pigs are a russet colour, so it isn't a Tammy. I think I'll vote for a...........Photoshop Pig! :)

    I never posted a picture before, so I hope this works.

    Name the artist.

    Being a mean old fart, I'm giving no clues.

    This could be very good practise in picture posting! Just as a matter of interest, what um, hosts? are you all using to store the pics?

    Are we going with the same format as the easy quiz - a few questions/pictures going at the same time? If not then delete the following away away but if so...

    Lacrosse?

    (I don't want this to be correct as I don't want to have to post a pic :D )

    Not lacrosse. It's more like a handball game rather than a field game with players on the opposing team picking up rebounds from the court walls.

    Jai alai is one of the variations of the sport Pelota - a Basque game. I only saw one live match and I was astounded at the speed generated by those baskets.
    Your honours Andip. :)

    Wasn't there a quiz show years ago that used to show common items close up? Then they would pan out to show the item. I was always surprised. Used to enjoy that. No idea what this is though.

    Sadly went downhill after Angus Deayton got the boot for having a bit of a party involving coke and a hooker.

    There was, but I can't remember the name of it. That's going to drive me mad. The one I'm thinking of was years before Angus Deayton, it was in the Nicholas Parsons era

    Hah, I wouldn't have gotten that in a month of Sundays - my best guess was the bottom of a sink drainer!
