    Plus the girls in their side came from a sporting background as well. Wasn't one of them an olympic medallist?

    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    I refused to shake his hand, shook everyone's hand except his and the umpire's. And its very rare I don't shake hands with the ump, let alone the opposition.

    Edit: Thought of another line we could use. If he starts criticising the umpire at any stage, we can say "It's alright Adrian, you can just go to work tomorrow and change the rules, can't you?

    I made my point on (and off, and then back on again) the field.


    I dont even remember seeing Napoleon Dynamite after the game-I just thought he'd disappeared down whichever hole he'd crawled out of in the first place.

    You actually mean that others are under serious consideration after Kossy's recent audition?

    This must be a prize gig.

    Well, to be frank, the short list only has one name on it. Kossy has agreed to take the job as long as we pay for his mad monday meal afterwards. He's going to blow his top if they've run out of the roast of the day again.

    It's become a weekly joke. "What's the roast?" and then John Cleese comes out with a trifle in a silver serving dish and says "Ducks off, Sorry"
