In the UK and Ireland we're a hour closer to you until the weekend because our clocks went back a week before yours.

I've posted a couple of Specsavers commercials before, so they obviously appeal to my sense of humor. In the latest one, an aerobics instructor accidently goes into a room where they're expecting a game of bingo... When I went to YouTube for the video, I found they'd made some follow-ups where they interviewed the class afterwards. ETA. Sadly, they seem to be unavailable now.

I think they're standing outside the County building, but the building behind them is the house on the corner of square that's next to Boss's house. There was a picture of Daisy in front of the same house a few pages back. I'm not sure where the picture of Denver was taken. My first thought was the Boar's Nest, but like you, I don't think it looks quite right. It could be the inside wall of a set. I'll have to look through my pictures, because it sure looks familiar.

Fever - Peggy Lee Roth, you probably missed it, but I made a note about posting song names/artists in the Musical Chairs thread recently:

Remind me nearer to Sunday, but I think I can make that. I agree about the FIA - sometimes they seem to forget about the fans.

Если ты так говоришь.

I wouldn't worry, Roth, most of my posts aren't Country. In case you're interested, I've already posted tracks by the following Dutch artists: Pussycat, Caro Emerald, Trijntje Oosterhuis and Vengaboys.

I was on another website the other day when I saw this advert. Before anyone speculates, it was a website with jokes that aren't suitable to post on HazzardNet . It amazing how cropping out General Lee can make you Russian .

I also enjoyed his donuts yesterday, but did you see that Red Bull got fined €25,000 (over $34,000) for Vettel not following the correct end of race procedure? I know the tires can be marginal at the end of the race, and they usually pick up marbles to ensure the car makes the weight limit, but I think all the fans would like the drivers to be able to celebrate a little, especially when they've just won their fourth world championship in a row.

I've just read the sad news that Lou Reed has passed away at the age of 71. Vicious - Lou Reed I know their titles are longer than one word, but I thought I'd include a couple more of the tracks from his great 1972 album 'Transformer': Walk On The Wild Side: Perfect Day: R.I.P. Lewis Allan "Lou" Reed (March 2, 1942 – October 27, 2013)

I think I'll just give up trying to catch the qualifying. Last Saturday I was all ready to watch when it was cancelled due to rain. Friday afternoons aren't a great time for me to see it. Somehow they managed to complete the qualifying without my help, and this is how they'll line up tomorrow: 1 Denny Hamlin 2 Jimmie Johnson 3 Kyle Busch 4 Matt Kenseth 5 Clint Bowyer 6 Joey Logano 7 Jamie McMurray 8 David Ragan 9 Jeff Gordon 10 Kevin Harvick 11 Brad Keselowski 12 Dale Earnhardt Jr 13 Juan Pablo Montoya 14 Carl Edwards 15 Martin Truex Jr 16 Marcos Ambrose 17 Ryan Newman 18 Aric Almirola 19 Kurt Busch 20 Ricky Stenhouse Jr 21 Mark Martin 22 Jeff Burton 23 Paul Menard 24 Landon Cassill 25 Kasey Kahne 26 Kyle Larson 27 David Gilliland 28 Casey Mears 29 Dave Blaney 30 Cole Whitt 31 Josh Wise 32 Travis Kvapil 33 Greg Biffle 34 Bobby Labonte 35 Elliott Sadler 36 Michael McDowell 37 J.J. Yeley 38 Ken Schrader 39 Tony Raines 40 Joe Nemechek 41 Danica Patrick 42 Reed Sorenson 43 David Reutimann The Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500 Powered by Kroger from Martinsville Speedway starts at either 1:30 or 2:00 PM ET tomorrow (Sunday). This week it's on ESPN.

That looks like the sign from outside the County Building behind Daisy. I wonder what was edited on the Atlanta picture. At first I thought the windows were up and we were looking at a reflection, but that area just looks wrong. The repetition in the pattern suggests that someone used the clone brush to cover something up.

If I'd seen this when it was posted, I'd have told y'all to ignore anything you read in the Daily Mail or on their website. They have a terrible attitude toward women. For some reason it's "the world's most popular newspaper website" (source: bbc.co.uk), but take a glance at their "Femail" section and you'll see that every woman is one of the following: too fat; too skinny; wearing too much make-up; looking rough without make-up; wearing too little; dressed frumpily etc., etc. - you get the idea. The Daily Mail doesn't just hate women - they're not too keen on immigrants, rich people, poor people, British opposition leader Ed Milliband's father etc. In general, it's a fairly nasty publication that's filled with bile. I'd suggest y'all avoid the website in future.

Well done for getting Yreka - I missed that one. Fulton County is mentioned once in 'Cooter's Girl' in season 6. It's got something to do with Luke's call to the DMV about a license plate.

I think BL's right. Dan sounds familiar from when I was looking up county names last week (otherwise I wouldn't have a clue!). Roger, don't forget that Waylon was the bass player in Buddy Holly's band on the Winter Dance Party Tour at the time of Holly's death in a plane crash. The crash also killed J. P. Richardson aka. The Big Bopper and Richie Valens. Waylon gave his seat on the plane to Richardson. I'm not sure if it's the same bike, but according to this article, Buddy Holly bought a maroon and black Ariel Cyclone in 1958. His father kept it until 1970, but in 1979 a couple of The Crickets tracked it down, bought it, and presented to Waylon for his birthday.

If you wanted to say "Thank you" in Irish, it's "go raibh maith agat".

In case folks don't know their Irish counties, County Down is in Northern Ireland, so it's part of the UK (although not Great Britain). County Cork is in the south-west on the Irish Republic (aka. Southern Ireland/Eire). Just for you, Mufn: "Fáilte go Co. Chorcaí" is "Welcome to Co. Cork" in Irish.

Thanks Roger. Now I see the options, D) Buddy Holly rings a bell. Of course I could be remembering a completely different storyline .

I'd need to get quicker (or less picky) to earn a living at it . Maybe one day ...

I had the same trouble with a seller on Ebay. I told him I couldn't bid on an item because it said US only, so he added UK. Finally he added Europe and said "you're in that, right?". I used to work in Greenwich (as in Greenwich Mean Time), and the meridian line was just down the road - it's actually marked in some places!

Yes, that one is mine too. If you make a 3' x 6' banner out of that artwork, it's going to be pixelated. The last time I supplied the logo as vector artwork it somehow made its way onto the internet, and I've had to stop at least two companies using the artwork without my permission. PM me and we might be able to work something out .

Even though I'm not in the UK, I can host it . There's myself and CDoherty here in Ireland, Roth over in the Netherlands, and i1976 in Italy. I'm trying to think if there are any other current regular members in these parts. For the record, here's the different names for the islands where I live, depending on which countries are included. I'm sure many people who live here aren't definite about these terms . And as I've just discovered, technically, if you lose the ‘Great,’ Britain only refers to England and Wales. Scotland will be voting on independence next year.

Jeff Gordon spent most of the race around 30th until he made a push near the end. He got to lead three laps, and ran in the top five for a few laps along with Jimmie Johnson. For the last 20 or so laps the pack was running in single file, and nobody wanted to start a second line. Danica even spent some time running in sixth near the end. Apart from Austin Dillon's crash, the only other major incident was when Marcos Ambrose got loose around lap 78 and took out JPM as he spun across the track. This was my favorite bit: Ricky had a strong race - I think he was in the top 10 for over half the race. I can't help you with the Bear's game .
