    Is it someone who converted to Hinduism from Islam and suddenly acquired a red spot on their forehead - like the singer Nyoti Nooran ? Just a wild guess but someone has to be the first !

    'Influencer' Li Jiaqi - who accused those who couldn't afford 79 yuan for an eyebrow pencil of not working hard enough. May not be doing much influencing now after the uproar he caused.

    Cheers yorkie.

    A football question: A quote on TV "and he got mud in the eye from somewhere, I wouldn't like to say where." - what was the occasion, who got mud in the eye, and where did it come from?

    One of Watford's finest ever cup victories.

    Obviously the quarter final goal against Liverpool, but I've no idea about the mud in the eye - other than that the pitch was very muddy.

    Maybe my sense of humour is different, but the line is something that amused me when I first watched the match highlights on TV, particularly because I knew the player in question, and it has stuck in my mind ever since.

    You'll find the answer in this clip, when Watford were in danger of scoring a second goal.

    So it was Ron Yeats who must have got mud in his eye, and Terry Garbett who was stopped by him. I can't for the life of me remember who the commentator was, but I was on the Rookery that day (alongside several of us here I think).

    And it was Terry Garbett who threw it in his eye. I was in the Rookery too - about half way up, right behind the goal - perfect view of the header.

    Over to you.

    Cheers BB. have you ever found a video of Colin Frank's goal against Stoke City in the 4th round ?
    My question - there are 60,000 of what on the bed of the River Thames, and how did they get there ?
