The average age of a phoenix in Vietnam was... n-n-n-n-19.

how about a large building
i.e. there are only actually three stands because one side is against something huge; a large sporran warehouse, a haggis factory, that sort of thing

Right. I'm just going to give you your answers, cos I'm impatient.

Gayfield (Arbroath), closest pitch to the sea in Europe...

New Douglas Park (Hamilton Accies), only synthetic pitch in Scottish football (do any English teams still have them?)

and Glebe Park (Brechin) ... is the only senior team in Europe to have a hedge running along the pitch.

...

Right.. sorry if I've done that a little wrong.. whoever has a good question feel free to post it!

I think they got outlawed in England after someone like QPR put one down. The opposition said it was unfair or something like that.

Thats a very nice privet hedge there too. Lower maintenance than a stand anyway

And since their average crowd is around the 600 mark, it's not as if they need the room!

Right, who's got a question?

okay i'll go next.

what is unusual about the dialogue between the characters in my new avatar?

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Mon May 08, 2006 4:01 pm

unlike some kids TV programmes, the characters actually talk proper English?

Are they all distant geordie relatives of that big slaphead Ant McPartlin?

good guesses but no.
in a weird way His Eminence is on the right lines

I don't even recognise the TV programme (not that I should, since I haven't been a kid for 20+ years).

Do they all speak sign language?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon May 08, 2006 4:31 pm

not sign language, it is a bit of a duff question as it does kind of prerequire having seen the show. but it is guessable and btw the programme is genuinely superb.

I recognise the characters but cannot say I've ever seen a full programme nor can I remember the shows title.

Is it the only kids' programme that's been dubbed for the foreign market and not vice-versa?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon May 08, 2006 4:52 pm

we're dancing around the right area.
it wouldn't need to be dubbed for export though. (i think) the show was smurfed in france.

Demmerz · Post by **Demmerz** » Mon May 08, 2006 5:09 pm

So.... another guess.

Is it made with deaf children in mind?

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon May 08, 2006 5:12 pm

perhaps, not sure about this though. there is vocal communication.
