Well, blow me down. It just shows you never know what will tickle someone's fancy. I sweat for hours and nada. I wrote this in ten minutes. That's £150 per hour. THAT's more like it.

Default Congrats!

Having essentially zero sporting knowledge, I was happy to leave this comp to others.
Well done! (A fine rate of pay, John.)

Tell me about it, John, but that's a comper's lot. And Graham – you can scrape up enough bluffing knowledge to enter a comp in 10 minutes' googling.

Thanks for the encouragement! Yes - I did that with the Speccie 'read all about it' and the NS 'GM Hopkins' comps. Both times, it worked
