You'll just have to make do with me KG :pac: It's been quite the week

Ok, all checks conducted, let's get cracking with A....

Neowise

I'd take mid table if it was offered now. Been bottom table in last few games, although just escaped the spoon in the last.

I will destroy Boards.ie if I don't finish in the top 5.

Two big answers here....


One of them is below

Being top of the leaderboard in the early stages never bodes well for anyone, so I already know I'm not winning this...

Queue a massive fall from grace momentarily... :pac:
