Tonights challenge:

My guess is they have to keep the balls balanced with more balls added to the tunnel periodically

1995? Man I was just learning my way around Bulletin Boards in 1995. And had a huge house brick phone in a carry bag in my car! I was clearly behind the times!!

If that’s the worst you’ve had to deal with then you’ve had a pretty charmed kind of life

[bleachy_dude]

Why is old mate being so horrible to his lady

 

[timmy]

I am looking forward to their hissy fits when they realise Kieran and Sophie are technically not yet out of the game though.

 

[the Theorist]

Looks like the baby got found.

 

[KTOM]

oh, what's that?

Reminds me of a simpler time.
