Greetings Groaners,
Welcome along to Episode 134 which is later and different to other episodes.
There is no pictorial game this week but there is a picture and verbal tribute to a fallen friend of mine.
Barnibus is our audience groaner this week.
The games have their answers included after each one is played.
Tribute to Omar
Omar, nothing prepares us for the loss of someone. You were a brilliant work colleague and friend, to say you'll be missed professionally and personally by all who knew you in an understatement. I've shed tears over your loss and wish so badly you were with us.
I know though you'll be up there happy as Larry cycling around waiting for us all.
Rest in Peace and Power Omar
The contact info is in the episode groaners and we hope you enjoy.
