Here's a fun/rubbish celebrity fact.
For dinner tonight we had mackerel and various other fish caught for our family by the leader of a well known British political party. We're moving up in the world.

I knew that would happen.
Alas, no. He is right wing though.

If Hitler caught my dinner I wouldn't be on here talking about it, I'd be on the phone to every newspaper in the world.

Hey Barry.
Did you know that Swindon Town are the only professional football club without any letters from the word Mackerel in it*!

*May not be the case anymore, what with recent promotions and stuff, but it was FACT for a while.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:09, Reply)

Bizarrely I did know that
because the other day I was trying to remember the 5th team that starts and ends with the same letter and ended up on a football trivia site.

Ironically I was blanking on Aston Villa.

There are 3 fish which start and end with the letter K

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:12, Reply)

can anyone name them?

Kayak is not a fish
if you catch one you're not allowed to roast the innards.

oops

So you can't have your kayak and heat it.
*Understood*

I hate myself for smirking at this.

Sorry Noel.
I feel bad for you.

I cannot BELIEVE I set you up for that and didn't realise

( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:22, Reply)

I was just doing you a favour. I assumed that was the whole point!

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:23, Reply)

I was going for Cavy mistaking a kayak for a fish
and eating a kayaker. Because the only word I could think of that starts and ends with K is Kayak.

And now kapok, which is the filling in parkas.

hmpph
No one is playing my game

The second one is Kwik Save Haddock
(this worked better in the 90s)

The third one is
kilmarnak

That's not a fish!

I'm drinking and Jeff's in, so let's not count our chickens, eh?
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:50, Reply)

That's cheating a bit though.
Whilst Killer is a name it's also an adjective, which could muddy the rules a bit. You could have Lonely Eel or the Needy Dolphin.

they don't start or end in K

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:31, Reply)

Sorry my mind was elsewhere, ignore me.
I was thinking of the football one where they start and end with the same letter.

I'm busy tweeting Nigel Farage about how I ate the mackerel him and his brother caught this morning. Hope I freak him out a bit.

Easily done though Lighty.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:13, Reply)

I did not know that.
I don't know much about football trivia or facts because other than Fulham I don't really give a monkeys. Bit weird eh.

It was Nigel Farage, by the way.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:14, Reply)

I cannot put into words how difficult it was to say something like that.
His brother was there, my mind was going into overload with puns.
(Barry from Eastenders is, despite the words written above, not a woman, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:16, Reply)

Glad you didn't.
You'd have only 'crashed and burned'
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:17, Reply)

The most difficult thing was not saying 'your brother's a knobhead'.

(Barry from Eastenders is, despite the words written above, not a woman, Wed 3 Aug 2011, 21:18, Reply)

Could have been more difficult.
You could have been having dinner with Phil Neville. Then you'd have been in real trouble.
