A very guessable one to start off with then: How many people write into the offices of I'm Sorry, I Haven't a Clue each year asking for a copy of the rules to Mornington Crescent?

There are, of course, two possible answers to this question.

there are some daft sods out there. i'll go for quite a few, 200?

Right first go!

The other answer you could have given was, of course, "Mornington Crescent".

Over to you.

it is actually only one person but i wrote to them 200 times

ops:

should have saved that luck for the lottery.
never mind.

okay, i have a friend in bideford which is a town served by only one bus route. (it is labelled route 1 which i find inordinately funny).

anyway, what is the highest number bus route in the nation's capital?

999?

not quite that many but you're less than 500 away.

700??

Matt Vinyl · Post by **Matt Vinyl** » Tue Jun 05, 2007 8:00 pm

I've definitely seen a 701 locally...

I think there was a 724 at Heathrow last time I was there

Stuart is closest so far.

Seeing as Stu said 700, and we've also had 701, I'll try 699.

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 10:26 am

getting closer (albeit slowly).

Flying Spaghetti Monster · Wed Jun 06, 2007 10:27 am

in that case lets try jumping to 600
