Fantasy Formula 1 - Abu Dhabi: The other stuff

Hello, Other Stuff fans. Here we are again, then.

I guess you'll be wanting stats'n'that, right? Righty-ho...


Fantasy Formula 1 driver of the day was Hamilton, with 27 points.

Well done to Henry, who becomes the first person (and maybe the only?) to clear 1000 FF1 points.

Bad weekend for Heather – a 6 point total adds her to the worst 3 scores of the season... for the 3rd time.

The top 3 drivers so far are Vettel, Button and Alonso. Heidfeld may only have done 11 races, but he’s still in the top 10!

The top 3 teams so far are Red Bull, McLaren and Ferrari. Rubens’ feisty drive sees the Williams team move all the way up to 10th.

Although he didn’t come first in this race, Henry still extends his lead to a (season-winning?) 75 points.

Leaders to date: Heather (1 race), Neil (3), Me (4), Ian (1), Me again (1), Ian again (1), Henry (7).

Front to back gap? A hoofing 521 points. Henry has more than double the points of Jon.

Fantasy Formula 1: Where Rubens just signed a 5 year deal with a nice team. For a change.

Next race: Tea-time final hurrah in Brazil, on 27th November.


(Yes, I am still listening to Beatles CD's - thanks for asking. Tonight, its the turn of Rubber Soul from 1965. Fabtastic!)

Faking it for real

As Donald “I’m really great, everybody says so” Trump is so fond of pointing out, there is a lot of fake news around nowadays. Honest. Your friends at Facebook think so too, and have recently been publishing their top tips for spotting false news – by placing them as ads in newspapers. Considering they came in for considerable criticism themselves, that’s like shouting “Squirrel!” and pointing at a tree whilst you hastily kick away the prize begonias you just trampled. To help you make sense of this (and because I’m a caring person), I thought I’d run you through their suggestions and help to explain them for you. I know. I’m lovely. 1. Be sceptical of headlines READING THIS ARTICLE WILL IMPROVE YOUR SEX LIFE!!! And explain that catchy headlines, or stuff all in capitals might be a bit iffy. 2. Look closely at the URL You can find out more about this at www.wowyouregullible.com if you want to understand how phony web addresses are a sure sign of dodgyness. 3. Investigate...

Going Underground

The US presidential election and Brexit must have made me more nervous than I’d realised. It seems I’ve created an underground bunker without realising I was doing it. Still – we’ve all done that at some point, right? No? Ah... In that case, the fact that I have inadvertently turned my cellar into a rudimentary survival shelter, just in case it all kicks off, demonstrates a severe case of bunker mentality. Fretting about Donald and his wall, and Hillary and her emails, clearly made me more paranoid that I thought about the possibility of WW3 kicking off. Whilst attempting to find a specific size of imperial washer the other day (turns out I’d mis-filed it in the nut cabinet – Tsk!) I was struck by what a lot of jam and chutney we have in the cellar. And I do mean a LOT. There are boxes of boiled-up sugar and fruit and more boxes of boiled up vinegar and fruit. We’re still only part way through 2015’s output too. Then there’s the plastic containers holding pasta in various for...

When in Rome...

...have a Grand Prix. Seems that the idea of a street race around Rome is on the cards. That'd be pretty exciting, wouldn't it? Any other suggestions? Basingstoke? Didcot? Reading? "And here's Alonso on Broad Street, just past Heelas and getting dangerously close to the Marks & Sparks cardigan display".... No? OK then. (More MP3 toons - Enigma "La Puerta Del Cieulu")
