Beagle blunderings...

mike32768 very kindly pointed out what a twonk I was. I had taken the players In Danger when I wrote my last post and killed them all off! So, to put the Last One Standing right:

Leading is the very same mike32768, in second place is WorldB, so we have the US in one and two, with paper_aeroplane and miffy42 fighting for the UK and Commonwealth. In Danger (but not gone!) are Stuhern, Deborah, mos623 and Clamking.

Beagle Maunderings

Nearly the end of the month with all its excitements. So, how are we looking so far?

Survivor:

We have eight left - with Mike32768 leading the way for the US. He's closely followed by the UK's dippo, then Clamking and Deborah, Markswood, lg549, jules44 and mos623 - still all to play for!

Titans:

I'll whisper this bit...

Stuhern is leading a mob of Brits here - Martin_Cube, Paper_Aeroplane, Doc and MarchHare007. Poor cubswin2323 is surrounded! That naughty little Skipperdeedoo is romping over the field, but, being Immortal, shouldn't be. So, we'll ignore them and salute Helmar, LauraMcC, klahrace and polaris.

The Moguls:

Jules is leading for the UK, and Deborah is jostling for position. Then follow Mike, miffy42, magijoh, and Maggie (funny how the ms stick together...) then Clamking, dippo, lg and WorldB.

The US vs UK and Commonwealth Challenge:

Jules leads again - followed by the Mighty mos, Deborah, miffy, strnog1, WorldB, Clamking, Maggie, markswood and Stuhern.

Awards!

Qmel the Master Chef has purchased 2 foam fingers and their Very Own Cow, so expect Milkshakes all round!

See you soon!




Some musings While You Wait...

I see that Life seems to have got in the Penguin's way, so while the Victors are waiting for crowns, thrones and all that Jazz, I thought I'd ramble on a bit about Awards. It's surprising how few have been 'bought'(with some notable exceptions...) Are you all saving up for Something Big? (I am, but it's A Secret...) Last month, Helmar bought a Mummy Cat and 3 kittens, a Happy Personal Whale, a kitten & a puppy & a ball. I don't know where the Happy Personal Whale fits in, unless it's planned Cat Food, in which case it will no doubt become an Unhappy Personal Whale (reminds me of that famous Vera Lynn song "Whale Meat Again..."). Qmel has acquired a ton of stuff over the year (far too much to list, although I shall be keeping an eye on all purchases from here on in...) Other Happy Shoppers include BB1, Flicker123, LauraMcC, Norabee, MarchHare007, Dippo, Sparklingwine and Bernie73 (or 13, I can't read my own writing...) Well, carry on all - remember there's only 85 shopping days to you know what...

Beagle ADC reporting, Penguin....

Just to put some people to the numbers...
Survivor:
All Qmel's talk of fast food led the Piranha to swallow 3 US, but a light dessert (Eton Mess, perhaps?) of 2 UK and Commonweath...
Leading the Survivors is the US's own of Mike32768, rapidly followed by Jules44, dippo, miffy42, and Some Beagle or Other for the UK & Co., followed by mos623 and martin_cube, all gallantly representing their countries and trying not to fall victim of a Peckish Piranha.
Titans:
Jules leads, ably supported by Doc, briarwoodrose and MarchHare007 (licensed to quiz). Twosleepy snipes for the US, and Skipperdedoo stops klahrace from teaming up. Helmar, LauraMcC and polaris finish the Top 10.
Moguls:
Jules leads, with Deborah right behind. Briarwoodrose finishes a sandwich, then Mike and magijoh1, miffy, lg549, markswood, WorldB and ryaman finish the Top 10.
Challenge:
Guess who leads? Yes, 'tis the Mighty Jules! Followed by mos, miffy (the two Ms...), Deborah, WorldB, strnog1, Mike and Maggie (more Ms) and lg549 and markswood finishing the chart.

Battleground Beagle in Wellies!

(Polaris warned me to beware of trench paw...)
Survivor:
Well, it's obvious that Piranha is keen on the roast beef of Olde England and The Commonwealth. He swallowed 5 UK &Co., with just a smidgin of fast food with 2 US.
Titans:
The mighty Jules44 leads the Titans, followed by Doc, briarwoodrose, MarchHare007 and skipperdedoo - all UK & Co. Twosleepy has woken up and joined last week's lone US Titan Klahrace in the top ten. Helmar, Laura McC and Polaris complete the top 10, although that naughty little Clamking is doing their best to confuse us. Are all shellfish naughties?
Moguls:
Jules has now managed to put some blue water between themself and Mike32768, who is ably backed up by Deborah. Briarwoodrose and miffy42 are close behind, with mos623 trying to join their colleagues. Don't look round, mos! Magijoh, markswood, lg549 and Maggie are coming up behind!
US v UK Challenge:
Jules is in the lead - perhaps I ought to get a stamp made up to say that? Miffy stands ready to back-up. A solid phalanx (see - Real Military Terminology) of the US is right behind you two though - mos, Deborah, WorldB, strnog1 and Mike. Maggie, lg549 and markswood - Your Country Needs You! {Beagle strikes Kitcheneresque pose - difficult in Wellies...}

Beagle from the Battlefield...

Survivors:
Well, there are nine pathetic little swirls, all that are left of 5 UK and 4 US players following the Mighty Piranha's Gulp. Sad.
Titans:
I'd better whisper this bit. From one to ten, we have 9 UK and Commonwealth players and one gallant US titan. Well done Klahrace! Jules44, refreshed by a break, takes the Titans in a stranglehold.
Moguls:
Mike32768 and Jules are locked together - couldn't be separated with a fag paper, as we say on this side of the Pond...Still not having dropped a single point - briarwoodrose, Magijoh and lg549 for the UK & Co and Qmel and Deborah for the US.
US vs UK
The magnificent Miffy42 leads Deborah by the teeniest of point. WorldB is supporting Deborah, but Jules and Mos23 are snapping at their heels (or would be if they were Beagles - like Pengy, I know little of the ways of humans...) There follows a brace of Maggie and Markswood then Mike, Qmel and strnog1 complete the top 10.
What does all this mean? No idea. Beagles don't do maths. No doubt the Penguin will be along shortly to let you all know!

Well, that was successful - Not!

We're on the fourth day, so time for a dispatch!
In Survivor, the unfortunate fact is that there are 6 UK desperately scrabbling to escape Piranha, and only 3 US. Eek!
In the Moguls, only Jules44 is maintaining the honours for the UK and Commonwealth, locked in combat with Mike32768. The list of people behind, without a question dropped, but just not fast enough, is Ryaman, WorldB, Mos623, Qmel, and RICKYBIKER (a new name, I ask myself? If so, welcome!) for the US and lg549, Magijoh1, Quiz_Beagle and Briarwoodrose for the UK and Commonwealth.
For Titans (which I'm excluded from, sniff!) Cubswin2323 is the sole US Titan battling 4 UK & Co. Titans.
In the UK v US challenge, the UK is maintaining a narrow lead over the US by 3 to 2. The real fight here is on 23 points, where there's a melee of j2cp2, Alien8, helmar, Dr_Gas and skipperdedoo. Must go now, to dangle a tail for the UK in the Piranha Pool (It's six inches longer since I started doing this, you know...)

Beagle from the Front Line!

Hello!

Hi all,
Our beloved Pengy, as you know, has invited contributors after 1 September to the Blog. I am planning to be there sporadically, so am just waving a paw to say hi! Expect to see more of me after 1 September ;-)
