That's a shame, surely he didn't censor himself before putting his foot in his mouth?

Im glad we agree on TS3. I stopped bursting in tears after 3rd time i saw it although i still shed a tear when i see some sadder parts

(no, i dont count how many times ive seen TS3. yes, everytime after seeing this film i open the lowest drawer in my bedroom where my puppets are hidden and i hug them all.)

New album "sounds like nothing", eh?
Maybe this'll be their "last shot at uber-minimalism".

What does it say after "Hockey" in his Olympics answer? I'd think he would realize hockey is winter Olympic sport...

Thank you! I could not for the life of me make out that the last part was "all 3." I kept wondering "What on earth is A113?" I thought maybe it was some reference that would make him answering with winter sports justifiable. I guess not...

Quote:
Hockey demands speed, stamina and a mastery of intricate hand-eye coordination. Played by teams of 11 on an outdoor pitch, the sport is a long-time Olympic favourite, offering non-stop action over 14 days of competition. All matches will be played at the brand-new Riverbank Arena in the Olympic Park.
Competition dates:
Sunday 29 July – Saturday 11 August

Just Hockey, innit? Not Ice Hockey. I'm sure I've seen Hockey at the Olympics before and he's right, it is very entertaining!

lol @ the Miliband answer. And not just 'exceptional man' but 'the most exceptional man of his generation' (you wot?). But hey, it is not he is the first Labour leader to fawn all over the royal family!

There's field hockey, but wasn't men's field hockey suspended as an Olympic sport sometime back in the seventies? I thought women's was the only one still played at the Summer Games.

My apologies. When I saw the font change I assumed that (and everything beneath it) was your signature and didn't read any of it initially. I had no idea Men's Field Hockey was still played in the Olympics. You learn something new every day I suppose...
