    Restrictions on overnight stays were relaxed this week so the MIL has landed. Shouldn't complain really she's quite helpful. She was tidying the attic, dusty, bit smelly, full of cobwebs.,but she's great with the kids. (Tommy Cooper)
    Apologies if I used this last time she was down.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Well I think TC looks much better in a fez so I'll keep the crown.

    Just to keep our HMHB chat going @briann, they have what I think is my favourite opening line of any song. "Ground Control to Monty Don" from Every time a Bell Rings on their most recent album. This has one of my all time favourite choruses too but I can't repeat it here - check it out yourself if you don't know it. I insist.

    Quintessentially English, utterly eccentric, completely unexplainable. A bit like the BP apart from the first bit.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Their most recent album. Is that their 'tricky' 14th album? Will check that out in good time.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Yes, but not when the MIL is in earshot. Unless I have misjudged her. I blame Tommy Cooper. And Les Dawson.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Those boys are never going to run out of things to sing about.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Well I'm off to cut the hedge and I don't even have one.
  • ixan57ixan57
    One for this side of the pond. When does the silly season start. Oh sorry I will answer my own question. It has started.
  • ixan57ixan57
    That reminds me @brianN and @DeaperateDan did you ever go hedge hopping when you were younger. It was great after a bit of painting the town red @kathy then ready steady go and not a drop of booze spilt from the stolen glass after being thrown out of the pub at drink up.
  • ixan57ixan57
    And the dog's were barking mad. Whoopee
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Careful with those apostrophes @ixan57, they might bite you.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Anyway, with regards to hedge-hopping, which I had to Google, the answer is obviously no. I'm not sure that sort of thing went on in the Home Counties. Clearly a terrible thing to be English ;-).
  • Brian NBrian N
    I did some insane things as a teenager but it didn't include hedge hopping. Tho I may have been thrown thru a hedge once or twice. You may find this hard to believe but apparently I was quite annoying as a teen.
  • catsnbirdscatsnbirds
    A teenager who is annoying?!? What an unusual definition for those usually calm, quiet and thoughtful years. ;-)

    Dan, what a score for today’s challenge! Congrats!
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Yes, drinks all round, two pups in a week. One more for the 10.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Well done @desperatedan, I'll have a bottle of The Macallan 52 yo malt.
  • ixan57ixan57
    Well done @DeaperateDan
  • karen68karen68
    Congrats @Desperate-dan on the puppy!
    Can you replay the level & take a screenshot of the tally screen? You need that for the puppy.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    @karen68, managed to break it again and get the correct screen shot. In fact I have broken it 5 times. But congratulations to @catsnbirds for overtaking all of us.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    @ixan57, slightly confused as to why you always call me @deaperateDan. Do you also have a @kathy keyboard?
  • ixan57ixan57
    Sorry @DesperateDan. Indeed a Kathyboard error
  • Brian NBrian N
    Wtg @catsnbirds, hope you have some good quality polish to go with that trophy.
  • catsnbirdscatsnbirds
    Thanks @BrianN . I try to keep the trophy in the same condition it was in when got it. I’m sure it will be passed on soon!
  • KathyKathy
    @DespererateDan congrats on the puppy! And Congratulations @catsnbirds on the trophy :D
    I was tempted to give a couple flings today, but then I didn't :/
    I've officially become a Lurker I think, it's nice and cozy in the Lurkers corner:)
    I'll be back in full swing soon, meantime @BrianN your doing a find job being the gobbygit lol :)
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Haven't a clue how to get to today's Challenge.
  • Brian NBrian N
    You have to destroy the spacecraft on Beak Impact 1 level 8.The wormhole takes you straight to the level.
    But be warned it's an absolute beast. It's so evil The Umbrella Corporation (Rovio) used it twice. It's also one of the eggsteroid levels.
  • Brian NBrian N
    Thanks @kathy, but there's no substitute for the real thing. So stop lurking and get y'self down here your royal gobbiness.
  • KathyKathy
    Good Morning Birdies :)
    Thought about Flinging the challenge today, But I hate Eggsteroids! Maybe later, thanks@Brian for instruction how to get there, been so long I've forgotten :/
  • Brian NBrian N
    Hey @kathy, did my jibe get you out of your cave? Like poking a bear with a stick and disturbing a hornets nest all rolled into one?
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Sorry @brianN, don't know what you mean. Even if destroy it nothing happens.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    But I almost got a 0 birder top score. The level just self destructed without having to do anything. Doesn't seem to have happened to anyone else.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Gosh I am confused. More than usual. I can't even see a spacecraft. Would it still there if I destroyed it earlier?
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    I am screaming but of course in space nobody can hear you scream.
  • KathyKathy
    @DesperateDan Hold on tight, I'm coming to save you! Have you still not figured how to get into the Eggsteroids level, of are you just silently screaming for the halibut?? How do you know no one can hear you in Space? I clearly heard that guy say "Houston we've got a problem" well... Idk if that's even a thing?
    Yeah @BrianN you poked the bear! Lol. I'm bored outta my mind so decided to give a couple flings! I can't Believe NoOne is on the improved list!!
  • KathyKathy
    Hey I don't have a spaceship on Beak Impact 1-8???
  • KathyKathy
    Never mind, it's a separate world of is own on my tablet, It's been sooo long I forgot everything, But I remember this Flingin' F'ling'n level I Hate Eggsteroids!!!
  • KathyKathy
    Never Flingin mind! Idk how I got 90k to begin with... No patience anymore!!
    No more poking the bear @BrianN
    * Heads back to the Lurkers section*
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    That's what I mean, no spaceship. But hey, I don't even care anymore.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    It's just dawned on me that maybe no-one can get in to the Challenge which explains why there are no improvements today.
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    @kathy, who else is in the lurkers section with you?
  • catsnbirdscatsnbirds
    Dan, I am almost always in the lurkers section. Very comfortable area of the BP, well set up for food, drinks and entertainment. Never know who might pop in!
  • Desperate DanDesperate Dan
    Oh great! Another Challenge I can't get in. I might head off to lurkers corner and sulk.
  • Brian NBrian N
    The best way to find out about these things is to check out the walk thru page. It shows you how to find the egg(or in this case space ship or satellite) as well as how to complete the level. If you no longer have a satellite to the right of the planet with the anchor then you must have hit in gameplay and the level should be there in the eggsteroid section.

    I know this has been mentioned before, but does anyone know if there is a definitive list of levels that are harder because of those meddling interfering boffins at the Umbrella Corporation?
  • KathyKathy
    I suppose there are a lot of Lurkers in the Lurkers section @DesperateaDan , they come and go, you never know who might pop in, it's very quiet!
  • KathyKathy
    Yeah you might've mentioned that part @BrianN , before the challenge ended!
  • Brian NBrian N
    Who rattled your cage beaky?
