I can only imagine how the Indians would react to being mistaken for the West Indies. Jokes aside though, the other big names are India proper, Sri Lanka, and New Zealand. |

| Missing one, Athers! Maybe they'll actually win a knockout game this time around. Thanks to Drunka and DL - Athrun, are you in, with the lack of entry fee? If so, that leaves one spot. - Drunkalilly wrote:

I think it's a combination of working in a supermarket for seven years and the fact that I'm pretty much a sociopath who can lie through his teeth with ease.
It's funny, because I've always considered myself a bit of a social chameleon: I've got a handful of different friendship groups with not all that much in common, so I've got to change which Balladeer they're talking to whenever I meet up with a new bunch. I still struggle to talk to uninteresting people, though, although if they want to talk enough I will usually be able to plough through. And I'm awful at lying. |

| I've always struggled with social situations, there are always people I would love to talk to but lack any means to spark up a conversation/arrange activities to hang out with them. The other thing is that I'm flaky as hell when it comes to attending social situations because sometimes when the day hits I cannot face the idea of being around people, which then leads to me no longer getting invited |

| The Netherlands are surprisingly decent at cricket: Europe's best team outside the British Isles, and not entirely made of ex-pats. They didn't make the World Cup, though. Scotland did, but they're rank outsiders. Care to be the final man of the sweepstake, Smurf?
Also, before Jas and shanks self-destruct, anyone else got some snow outside their window? Not looking forward to the walk to work, I must say. |

| We had a little snow at the weekend but nothing that's really stuck. More would be nice, and I might even be able to film a sequel to what I did last time it snowed. |

| Good luck, Jay! I did (and still do) find driving stressful. I have flares of unexpected road rage like any driver.
My first lesson (two hours) went from me not knowing how to operate a gearstick to driving down a long 60mph stretch of road to get back home.
Are you having one or two hour blocks? |
