Or the fact that when we have an eclipse.....the shadow from 'here' to the moon is curved...rather than a 'slot' across the moon. (Heck...maybe the Moon's a cardboard cutout...?)

Like I said, I'm not sure whether it's an 'anti-conspiracy', wind-up theory.........Just like the April Fool from 5 ? years ago......Wot Nobby and I did....(I still reckon that was a real belter).....I'm STILL not sure whether you DID get the 'mail I sent you....or whether you were winding ME up, saying you were trying to figure out what had happened to the forum.

(The biter, bit !) ;)

Cheers - Phil (I know what I think. :P)

As I have said before, the only thing 'Flat Earthers' fear is sphere itself.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I thought they were more concerned by the thought of becoming a global phenomenon?

Good for him, Leon. :) :-bd :-bd :-bd

Good grief.....They're so far off the blanking wall, I almost wonder if it's an 'anti-conspiracy' theory.

Completely and utterly frigging barking

Yep.....Sod science. ;)

Cheers - Phil. (I did note that some muppet (not Ian) was trying to raise certain funds to prove their theory correct.....I don't know how much they were trying to raise..(Lots) ..but they seem to have made $2,000.....$1,000 of which had been donated by the erm.....chap*....who started it.

Cheers - Phil (Gimme strength) ;)

*Or complete .....erm....twit (sic)

Which rules are we playing ?

Ah! I can help here, as Chair of the Runcorn & District Mornington Crescent Appreciation and Advancement Society. It's February, so you can't play Ryker's Deviation (too cold) and since it's the second half of the month, half-stops aren't permitted except on a back move, and pinning counts double.

Actually, it's the 25th February, the day on which in 1570 Elizabeth I was excommunicated. That would be a great opportunity to play the Cardinal's Folly variant, where all religious buildings can only be approached from the East. 

Hope that's clear.
