    Not much of a claim to fame really. I could easily equal it along with a few old friends of mine but Aussies can be very proud of their achievements can they not? :D

    I hope no body here thinks I am being harsh ;)

    Please record yourself drinking 2 and a half pints of lager in 11 seconds or less. Its also more about the fact that our Prime Minister holding a beer drinking record compared to say Theresa May, who's wildest experience was running through a field of wheat....

    War is close to breaking out.. Folks, don't mention the Ashes!

    P.S. Srameen could you throw in a question please? It could be as effective as football in the trenches, Christmas 1914.

    Rubecula owes a question. Meantime, to keep things ticking over I can't resist this one which shouldn't take too long.

    What maiden surname did the late Barbara Bush share with a president of the USA to whom she was distantly related?

    Interesting man to read up on.

    Is generally considered to be one of the worst Presidents of all time. Had major issues with the bottle during his time in office.

    Old age lunged at me for a second and the question leapt onto the wrong thread. Took my pills and gathered my senses to find a "new home" for them.

    Now answer the question, :)

    If it's any consolation, I actually replied in the wrong thread, too. :rolleyes:

    Is it a medical connection? (or is it too early for clues?)

    No, it's not a function that links them.
