    Some of the comments on here make me chuckle but nothing raised a laugh like A.S.L.B thinking she could cut down 208 Christmas trees in two minutes. :pac::P

    Its a world record, its supposed to be ridiculously impressive, and your average Christmas Tree trunks aren't exactly girthy.

    Taking down appoximately 2 xmas trees per second, now that would be impressive, so that was my thought process and I stand by it.

    27 is nothing when you consider the potential.

    If I stop the tree questions will you stop the puns? :D
    It's a (red) deal, :pac:

    That works out at an average of 1.73 tress per second. It makes my guess of 1 tree per second look slightly conservative!

    I was only thinking today that I probably wouldn’t be far off in a table based on right answers.

    Does it make me happy?

    That would be a no.

    Thanks though. I think.

    I presume the nice men in that picture were victorious and the one in the streamlined cycling helmet went on to overcome his extreme sensitivity to sunlight and win an Olympic gold. Feel good hit of the summer

    Q12: Last year, how many Irish emigrants came home for Christmas?

    As always, PM me your answer before 7pm
    I'll reveal everyone's answers this evening, but I'm not quite sure when, it might be a bit erratic today, sorry


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,802 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA

    Does the Nitwit family not realise this game takes priority.

    Ooh, need to be very careful with the answers here, get it wrong and minus points can be very costly.
    I actually went with an answer that I thought people are likely to select 😅
