Yes, I think he did Marian. In fact Anton may have thought that Anne Widdicombe was a piece of cake in comparison. :D :D

Can you believe this-I was just getting the dogs food ready, and I switched on the tv, and just caught the end of Pointless--and the question was to do with various "LIONEL"s, and which were the most well known--I recognised, Lionel Blair, and Lionel Bart--but there was a young guy that I did not recognise--hey presto--it was Lionel Messi !

I said he would turn up as a quiz question, just a few days ago .

He only got 27 votes--I think Lionel Blair got 84, but maybe they did not recognise him, but just knew his name--like me !!!!

Yes, what a co-incidence Marian I was watching Pointless and thought of you, :) although it wasn't a very good picture of Lionel Messi.

Who saw "Celebrity Chaser" tonight--there was a question about fotball, and I immediately said to the dogs--that must be Lionel Messi---the answer they gave was Ronaldo---but I was right with Lionel Messi !!!! they called him Lee-onal---not Lie--onel--I shall remember that, I am learning a lot about him in a the last week or so.


Henry-I have had Tofu--it does not really taste of much--i'm pretty sure its not cheese--nor do I think it is Quorn---could it be some type of plant.
