WHISKAS ROUND ROUND-UP
rlrl
Even though Bongser was not in the herd, he is running with it – democracy in action. General Election on the 12th of next month. The way things have been, were Bongser to be a returning officer, a local MP would take his/her seat in around March.
Two Semi-Finals to deal with and readers, after this extended advert break, may need a reminder of the outcomes:
York 4-30 Fev
Trannies 40-24 Tools
Of the six cats present, Zools & Budge called one correct winner (5 points apiece), Vanners & EVVO called the twain (10pts), a feat matched by Pubbers & Wanderer that furthermore both nailed the margin in the Trannies/Tools dust-up (20pts). A further 25 point WWB to each of the latter-mentioned pair.
Let’s see how that affects the swingometer:
Vandaman 2,334
Wanderer 2,155
Bongser 1,802
Zools 1,782
Chazzer 1,716
Pubbers 1,687
EVVO 1,658
Chayders 1,618
‘Tommers 1,244
Zillers 376
With a lead of 179 points, but with the final time capsules still offering 330 possible points, it is not yet time for Vanners to take a plane to Buck House and to ask HM ERII to allow an ex-pat to become her new Champion.
It would seem that, in Hong Kong, the Chinese have just held an election.
