Scoop and I need to get a team together for the Porty Greenkeepers fundraiser on 16th March. Porty? Bob? Gilo?

There is only one response to this request and I believe ecm holds the copyright, but I'm sure she won't mind if I borrow it.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha etc.

So what are they hoping to raise funds for exactly?

"This included pointing out that, if St Johns had to move, the study had not considered the possibility of exchanging land between the flat area of Figgate Park at the end of Hamilton Terrace and the existing St Johns site"

Epykat, I must admit I am more than a little surprised to learn that a park lover like your good self is considering cavorting with the morally bankrupt.

I think that might be rude?

Was that a name suggestion or an observation?

You may take it as either.

People For A Nonessential New Institute Excluding Shrubbery?

So, tell us more about this pop quiz Epykat. Is Tom Nimmo involved? What precisely is Portygreenkeepers raising funds for? Is it to pay the exorbitant fees of a QC to contest the issue of 'common good' land? Why is this pop quiz not advertised on the Portygreenkeepers website? Is it being discussed on their discussion forum at www.portygreenkeepers.org.uk/forum ? Why, when I click on the 'Register' button do I get the message 'I am sorry you may not be registered, please contact the administrators' and when I click the 'Contact Us' button I get 'The requested URL was not found on this server'? Will any of the prospective candidates for the forthcoming Council election be supporting this event? (This may inform the way I vote). How much exactly needs to be raised to pay the exorbitant fees of said QC? Are the people who are likely to attend this event aware of exactly how their money is likely to be spent?

A POP QUIZ is a quiz about pop. Same sort of thing that happened for PCATS. Is Tom Nimmo involved????? If he doesn't actually know all the answers I will be very, very, very surprised. Epykat, I hope you manage to get a good team together. All together now...... They paved paradise and they put up a parking lot etc, etc, etc.

Despite the reservations of Bob and Porty, we did get a team together and had a good night. Thanks Tom for providing all those sport related questions which we couldn't answer along with the extremely complex rules

. The sannies were lovely, the drink was cheap, the disco was great and we didn't come anywhere near winning

. To make it fair I think Bob and Porty should organise one to raise funds for the bulldozer fuel in case the Scottish Exec don't cough up. I'm not proud - I'll go to that too.

Excuse me!! I never thought you would not get a team. What did you call it in the end?

So you turned up expecting pop questions and got difficult sports ones. I’ve ceased to be amazed or even mildly surprised that PPAG events turn out to be something other than advertised. Were the prizes donated by a deceased porty philathropissed?

You mean PFANS are just a front for PortyGreenkeepers?

Ouch!!! A terrible error. How very bad. I'm still bleary from the rugger.

If I had known that YPT was actually you then I would have tried to help you along a bit. Can't remember what your final score was but it was respectable. I'm glad you and your comrades enjoyed it so much.
