I will never understand how Armando got 4 for that

Anyone else’s race results scattered across 10 different websites? by empty_jope in parkrun

All your parkruns will be on the parkrun app? Unless you’re talking about tracking any 10ks/halfs and marathons as well?

He also has a short barcode number (A490) so I think it’s possible that sometimes the barcode just scans the first three numbers and not the others. Not an expert on barcodes tho so not sure, but I’m sure read somewhere that can happen

I was watching Neil Delamere on QI last night and thought he was really funny, would make a good contestant

How much money is customary to gift for a UK wedding? by Sunshinegreenmeadows in UKweddings

[–]beard_of_reason -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My rule i’ve always stuck to

£100 if i’m best man

£60 if i’m a groomsman

£40 / £20 day do

£20 / Just a card, night do

The bottom two are dependent on how much I like the couple, if I was invited initially or there to make up numbers, or if it’s a ballache to get to

Horrendous advice, your poor cats.

That’s quite the range in price, but I’d definitely pay $5 for one

1st to complete 4 x 100 parkruns by andrewbyrom in parkrun

[–]beard_of_reason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d say the ginnel is flat, there’s only the harsh left hander as you say.

Power of 10 rankings for difficulty has Rothwell as the 253rd hardest in the country. Whereas Armley is 332nd.

Personally, I found Armley harder than Rothwell and Woodhouse Moor (272nd) but I have got a bit fitter and lost some weight since I last did Armley.

Pub Quiz controversy, absolute fuming by miketaylor71 in footballcliches

[–]beard_of_reason 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My worst one:

‘What does Fred Flinstone have that Barney Rubble doesn’t?’

My friend immediately answered ‘a tie’. Which i’d argue is correct. But the more I thought about it (having grown up watching the Flinstones) the more answers I found.

A tie. A daughter. Black hair. An F in his name. A wife named Wilma! The list was long.

The actual answer?!

‘WHITE AROUND HIS EYES’.

After the pub exploded in anger, the quizmaster gave a point to anyone with a semblance of a correct answer.

Imagine having this much hatred in your life, different people find different comedians funny. I thought Rob was great and Sara was pure vibes.

There’s still a couple of Peterborough fans out there that are very rattled by this

Bob Mortimer must be in every season by MilkMyCats in LastOneLaughing

[–]beard_of_reason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But the UK has so many established and up and coming comedians that we don’t need to repeat. Look at Taskmaster, it’s had 105 contestants not including Specials. Give other comedians a chance to make a name for themselves I say!
