I recognise that guy in the adverts but I can't tell who it is because of the big beard. It's really really annoying.

Occurred to me it might be Rob Newman, not sure though.

ahhhh. So we're recognising him from the orange adverts! wierd!

i like Yes. It was really good fun. They drove me down after our show and I literally had three hours' sleep, and then got up and started shouting bombastically from the stands. . People don't use the word 'bombastically' often enough. I hope it's a real word.

Bombastic is a superb word and I totally agree its not used enough. That should be the mission for the weekend.

The definition is just as good "Grandiloquent, pompous speech or writing."

NB: Slack day at work :)
