|
|
I am taking bets on Lilliebet arriving at the tavern here within eight hours of now. Its 5.20pm Aussie time and I am +10 hours GMT.
Lilliebet has just headed off to work and shes in UK
who ever can guess closest to the time that she arrives in the tavern here will win.
You will be able to get an idea of the time from when this is posted
OK, let the bidding begin

My money's on 15.45 BST. Now where's my prize?
You were supposed to start an interesting conversation, I'm still waiting.

Hey lilliebet
I hate to see a lady drinking alone.

Well, I gotta go so I guess you'll have to have that G&T by yourself after all lilliebet. Enjoy.
Cheers.

Hey OldGuy, sorry I missed you. I'm suffering terribly from slow page load tonight (nearly 30 secs) and keep getting 'we're carrying out routine maintenance' messages. It's always bad for me when North America comes online but tonight it's the pits.
Raising my glass to you anyway, goodnight

I always miss everyone, time zones, wish I was in yours.
I will not be seen much for the next five days, I am off on vacation in 12hours. I may have a computer to use when I get there but ya never know. If I don't talk to you, I'll talk to everyone when I get back. Bye!

Hey Taz
Vacation is vacation! Don't you go near any computers, you'll only be tempted to dive into the logs
Have a good one, see you soon.

Well due to the overwhelming amount of bets, there was a protest or two but lilliebet came in trumps as she guessed the exact time she arrived....
we will have to revisit the rules next time we run a sweepstake such as this!!!
