    We were all eliminated regularly and fairly quickly, it turns out it's fairly difficult to accurately move a cursor just using a sensor in the hat you're wearing.

    Ah OK it thought it was more like the real thing than a computer game. A little while back there was news of a real (not killing people though) game where some of the participants planed to sue the organizers because they got cold and wet.

    1,677 out of 1,679 ain't just fairly rubbish, mate!


    Your Missus having no idea what was going on reminds me of when Daughter 2, Son-in-Law, wife and I were in an Escape Room.

    As three of us set about trying to rearrange some coloured tiles to form a rudimentary clue in order to crack the code to open a desk drawer, my Missus started rattling the door handle before exclaiming 'We're locked in! Have they any idea how many Heath and Safety laws that contravenes. <laugh>

    It was well worth watching the real Squid Games series.
    Well I enjoyed it anyway.
    Very similar sets etc to the functional one, but blood capsules splattered on you when you were eliminated.
    A couple of games different but a good watch nevertheless to see how people ganged up etc

    There was talk recently of overrated rock songs. The Doors were the most overrated rock band. In my opinion of course. One classic song, one decent one and that was it. Others may differ.

    Brilliant programme Chazz. I don’t know whether it’s still on iPlayer, but if you can find it the celebrity one was surprisingly good too

    Posted this when the first series was on

    This week's episode starts with the one with a fear of heights sitting having breakfast at a window seat of a skyscraper hotel built on top of a mountain. Within 5 minutes there she is at the top of a tower view point standing on the see through floor. Scared of heights my arse, why make up **** to make it more dramatic when there's more than enough real dramatic stuff. They're travelling across Canada ffs.

    Just watched ‘The Saint of Second Chances’ based on a father and son partnership to revive the fortunes of the Chicago Sox baseball team in the 1970s. The son came up with some amazing ideas to generate much needed finance to keep the club afloat resulting in one crazy idea that backfired (literally) Worth a watch for people who enjoyed the 70s, sport and disco vs rock n roll!!
