  <title>Grand National 2007</title>
  <description><![CDATA[I'm not a betting man, and really not interested in horseracing, but as it's the Grand National this weekend I'm going to put a virtual bet on "Billyvoddan" to be the winner. Hope I'm wrong...<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Grand_National" rel="tag">Grand National</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/horseracing" rel="tag">horseracing</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Billyvoddan" rel="tag">Billyvoddan</a>]]></description>

  <title>Spammer in jail</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Yesterday was a great day. No, not because Hedgehunter won the Grand National and no, not because Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles got married. It was great because <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4426949.stm">someone has finally been punished for spamming</a>. On top of that, Arsenal FC beat Middlesborough, Manchester United lost (to <strike>Norwich</strike> Delia Smith) and Chelsea only managed a draw to Birmingham City! In case you hadn't noticed I don't like Chelsea FC very much...<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/spammer" rel="tag">spammer</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/jail" rel="tag">jail</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Grand_National" rel="tag">Grand National</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Arsenal" rel="tag">Arsenal</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Chelsea" rel="tag">Chelsea</a>]]></description>

  <title>Horses for quizzes</title>
  <description><![CDATA[As I got into the office on Friday I was more or less mugged and made to enter the office Grand National pool. Unsurprisingly I drew a 50-to-1 shot out of the hat. How do you pronouce TyneandThynegain? I've nicknamed him FinethenThighstrain because he doesn't feature at all on the <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/other_sports/horse_racing/3597065.stm">final results</a>! The horses that finished and which fences all the other horses fell at are on there. I didn't watch the race but I'm thinking, if he didn't even make it to the first fence then he must have tripped over the start tape... <strike>and then probably got shot</strike>.<br />
<br />
Anyway, Amberleigh House was the winner. Always useful to remember these things, as I'm sure it'll come up in some pub quiz sooner or later. I'm actually setting the questions for a fundraiser pub-style quiz at church come summer. Maybe a question on the Grand National will come up... although, I was planning on it being a Socratic wonder... (especially the calculus round). We'll see!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Grand_National" rel="tag">Grand National</a>]]></description>
