Good morning everyone.
 Dave My thoughts are with you on this difficult time. What is going on? Hamilton on pole position and numerous crashes throughout qualifying, should prove to be an exciting race. Shame it will be Channel 4 highlights. As for the 'footy' any bets on a Wales v Iceland final? |

Hi chaps, just wanted to point out I just got my 25th badge! Getting them to change colour is the next tricky bit.
----------------------------------------I like the idea of a Wales v Iceland final. More interesting than the more likely Portugal v Germany.  |

Had a unusual points score yesterday so have done some sums, and found that for HST some WUs I was getting 130 pts/hr and for others 370 pts/hr. Yes 370 ? I checked it twice. Everything seems to be very strange these days.

To cheer myself up after the Austrian GP, I've added a new feature to my Team UK stats page .
----------------------------------------The member comparator now includes a prediction of what the selected members' team ranking will be in 7 days time. This is simply calculated by adding the 7-day production rate to current totals, and then recalculating the rankings. Obviously this will be of no interest to Mamajuanauk and crooks_uk

Good Evening All.
----------------------------------------What an exciting Austrian GP. I listened to it live with the F1 app on my iPad and nearly had a couple of heart attacks on the last lap. Finally I got to see the highlights on Ch4 via my slingbox (that is coming to an end very soon) and I wasn't too disappointed with the coverage. Very sad when the fans booed LH for an incident that was not his fault (and the stewards agreed by penalising NR with a 10 second penalty and 2 reprimand points on his license). OK I'm biased but it did seem to me that if NR wasn't going to win there was no way that he wanted LH to win even if it meant taking both cars off (as in Barcelona). I am now counting the days to the British GP (Brexit GP?) next weekend. I will of course be rooting for LH (no surprise there then)

Morning All..
----------------------------------------Although it hasn't run WGC for a good while, I have had to put my Laptop out to pasture due to it dying a slow death (has been for a while), which has forced me to buy a new one , which I am (very reluctantly  ), forced to test on the grid, just to make sure it's running well under pressure (cough, cough  ), so for a little while, my production will increase a little  Once my wife is back to work (a fair while yet, but we're getting there.. albeit slowly), I will unleash Everything I have including a nice little delayed Birthday present I've been waiting to get my sticky paws on for a while now   |

Good morning everyone.
Have now got past 12,000.00 points and due Gold on Open Zika later today. TMC Sad to hear of the demise of one of your laptops, although you buy a new one. I am glad to hear of your wife's returning to better health. Followed the GP on the Beebs text commentary which although there was about a two minute delay on actual events proved to be a quite thrilling race. Did catch the C4 highlights later and enjoyed it. The Hamilton / Rosberg incident really was a case of six & two threes, ya pays ya money and take what you will. Sad to Iceland leave in the quarter finals, they played well and showed much more spirit than the overpaid / molly coddled outfit that was England. Go Wales lets see you in the Fianl. |

I reckon that had Rosberg's and Hamilton's positions and circumstances been reversed, Hamilton would have tried to have run Rosberg out wide on that corner, but with a different outcome (Rosberg would have been run off the track). Any talk about blind spots is *rap, in my unqualified opinion. As you can see, I'm biased too :-)
