    No wrong answers in Sheep. Was either that or Xenia Warrior Princess and age didn’t do me any favours in the TV Round

    I think you mean Xena Warrior Princess...

    Xenia Warrior Princess sounds like an Aldi or Lidl knock-off version. :D

    Sometimes a little intelligence is a dangerous thing with these competitions.

    You have to think as 'what would a crazy person submit'

    Congrats lassy and well done Ted for great topic and reveal.

    Can't believe how low the actual word "weather" scored for W....was it just *too* obvious or...? :p

    Not sure if we totally understood the concept, or if any of us were trying to run up a score or just hit some answers. I have a better idea how the game works now. I thought (incorrectly) that the scoring was based on one point if you hit a sheep and otherwise zero. Not sure why I thought that, the actual format makes sense now that I see it in action. The only difference in approach might be that I would disqualify answers that could not be related in any way to the weather even in a humorous way.

    It was fun to participate and I already entered one other sheep quiz.

    lassy, well done on the victory.

    Ted, thanks for running that, great fun as always.

    As you have signed up for other comps, you are a permanent resident of Hotel California here now, you can never leave.

    Although it could pass for the Overlook Hotel at times.

    May the force 12 be with you.

    I think people were trying to outdo each other here for the longest answer possible in a sheep competition.

    ACE - Queue a mile long for Ice-Creams because it's lovely out and the hordes have descended on Dun Laoghaire - 1

    Did I read somewhere that there was *checks calculator* 68 bonus points for the longest answer? I'm sure I saw that somewhere :D :pac:


    Well done Lassy, and LaVar. Thanks Ted very enjoyable,


    and welcome to all the lovely weather forum people
