    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 could have recognised a saddleback! :D

    Ah for heavens sake the GOS was the initials of the three words, not three letters of a five letter word!!!

    You think that's bad, I didn't even notice that there was a clue.:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,108 ✭✭✭Jellybaby1


    I also did not even notice the clue. :o

    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?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,638 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat


    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...

    Name the sport.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,089 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    Lacrosse?

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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,638 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat


    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.

    Supposedly the fastest ball game in the world, its called jai alai ? - get hit by one of these balls and you wouldn't know much about it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,638 ✭✭✭✭OldGoat


    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. :)

    It is indeed & today they are celebrating 50 years of sanitation in Singapore :rolleyes:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,219 ✭✭✭jos28


    Sanitation - where would we be without it :D

    OK here's my contribution - a commonly used article taken at an unusual angle

    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.

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

    Is it the centre of a CD case?

    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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,219 ✭✭✭jos28


    And the prize goes to Srameen, well done !

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

    Not very imaginative but here goes - it's another object from an unusual angle

    Its a close up

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,089 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    Could that be described as an 'everyday object' or is it something special and technical that we are not likely to see normally?
