    If we get a cheese bar can we get that manager back that liked cheese to host it? Was that Montanier? Lamouchi?

    Stitchleton for me, please.

    Montanier, aka "Le Grand Fromage". Very nice guy.

    Wasn't there a song about him to the tune of Blondie's Denis? Something about Phillipe Phillipe, he came from France to teach Forest to play?
    I remember thinking it was a bit naff.

    If you only climb Everest once in your life, you are statistically more likely to be killed by your doctor than the mountain.

    I suspect that doesn't stand up to much analysis.

    Depends how you define being killed by your doctor.

    If the people who climbed Everest were a representative sample of the world population and the sample size or Everest climbers was higher I'd be happier I think.

    I believe that you will find that the data regarding the climbers on everest, well recorded in the himalayan database, will be more statistically significant than, say, the data from a single premiership season.

    Having been derived from being up a mountain, does not invalidate the reasonably large data set.

    And as well as likely giving you the shits, excessive consumption can and probably will lead to one being, 'off thier fucking tits',* as I believe is the correct medical term.

    *supposition not grounded in known data or demonstrable FACT!

    I've long since retired from that sort of caper.

    Ingo would probably be well up for it though.
