Building
I'm running a pool at the moment based on my best friend and her husband's house. Our circle of fourteen friends (best friend and spouse included) have all offered the mighty sum of £1 each to the person who's picked the closest date to when their extension will be completed by (signed off, decorated but not furnished). Betting took place in September last year, and the last date picked is 31st December 2010.

Annoyingly enough, I'm not going to win the life-changing sum of thirteen Gor Blimey Pounds* as I picked 19th March, at which point they hadn't completed the roofing, dag nabbit. If you're really interested, there are now only five people left in the running.

*I'm *sure* that's what GBP stands for. Right?

Ah, now that makes much more sense. Thank-you!
