Ah, found my notes, so here goes. . . . . On Tuesday morning I checked my e-mails and found the anonymous letter, below and in blue font: We have captured your star poster, Rubl and he is being held in an undisclosed location. Unless our demands are met, we will cut off the fingers of his right hand (all six of them) and show him pictures of kittens being tortured. Our demands are.1/. Total autonomy for Wales and the establishment of a free Welsh state. 2/. The outright ban of pineapple on any cooked foodstuffs 3/. TTFT & Smokie are to hold their annual Christmas Quiz, again.4/. No fish on Friday If our demands are met, we will release Rubl (sans a few digits) to your care. Obviously, we want our Dutch Uncle back (especially since our new whipping boy, Ben, went AWOL), but at what price? Do we really have to endure another Christmas quiz? Should we be forced to stop eating yellow fruits on Pizza? Do we really want the Yaki Da’s getting all uppity? Should Shropshire Blue Cheese be made available on prescription though the NHS? Should fish only get eaten on certain days? (please note that these questions are not part of the quiz). I would say yes to all of these, except the free Welsh state one (I’ve booked 2 weeks at a caravan site in Rhyl next March). So, a Christmas quiz and a total ban on Catholics and Hawaiian pizzas it is then. The quiz will start after Smokey arrives in Bangkok next week. Mr. Smokes will answer any further inquiries about this. Please note that on a serious note, I would like to thank both SirPolee and Rubl for agreeing to put their differences aside and I believe that I speak for all true mangoes when a say, we look forward to Rubl’s return.

Will have any fingers when he returns?
And shouldn't we hold a party to celebrate, commiserate or just get p**sed?
And shouldn't those two pay for all the booze, just because I think they should?
I'll have more questions in a moment so stay alert.

Can Rubl return after the Christmas quiz. He's won it 5 years running.

He should be given a handicap for being so smart, I think he should have to answer three questions correctly, in order to earn one point. Plus, he has to buy everyone lots of beer afterwards, regardless of whether he wins or loses. And..... well, that's probably enough.

Hey, hey, hey,
Me and Smokes are the quiz-masters supreme. No more questions unless they go through the 'Christmas Quiz Committee', AKA 'CQC'.

Aaaaah, you don't remember the sporadic and unexplained points system from previous quizzes on this board?

Noted, Rubl will be told no running this year. Saying that, he might walk away with the title.

You forgot to mention you are offering his kidnappers half of your slab of Shropshire cheese which is coincidentally arriving in Bangkok on the same flight as me. Or did I hear that wrong? Anyqay....rubl must be saved and returned to the safety of this board at any cost!

My section on the Dutch royal family and their favourite cheeses will sort the men from the French for sure
