    Well done Roller. Air France and Lufthansa other options. Its seems there is no direct flight from the UK, and no reduction in cost flying from Heathrow, so at least I start with a short drive. It's a long one, movies, reading and kip. There until end of next week, hopefully by the time I'm back something positive will have happened to cheer us all up.

    Have a good trip mate.

    Anyone else fancy setting a question? I've got a great book of them upstairs, but I'm downstairs watching the cricket......

    Players from 13 different nations have played for QPR 100 times or more. Name these nations and one of the players from each.

    Good catch - 121 appearances for QPR - 6 goals, so that would be fourteen player/country combos, and possibly counting?

    Anyway I will try and come up with a new question.

    That's the one, apparently Lord Kitchener thought it would be easier to defend.

    Well he fared better than General Gordon during his time in Khartoum, at least until his ship hit that German mine en route to Russia in 1916.
