    Are they Irish?

    Oh, and Prynhawn Da :)
    She is!


    I thought she looked a bit familiar yesterday! I don't know her personally, but I was on one of the charity events she vaguely referred to ('twas they let the cat out of the bag about her appearing) - I was hoping she'd win and big them up a bit, but maybe that's tomorrow!!


    Happy to report I would have got a pointless answer (Muguruza) for the final round, so I can put my paranoia away for a week or two :D

    I was reading through all yizzer answers while watching - and I have to say my sense of time is seriously warped, there were a lot of them I was going "but they were, like, donkeys years ago!" - and they turned out to be right answers :confused:
