it's very difficult not to bite when it comes to jugs and nuts, but I shall refrain....

Heh I'll re-stick it, I just unstuck it so that people didn't feel obliged to continue on and put themselves under the pump, so to speak.

At the very least I'll try and come up with something once a month (I might need polite prompting / reminding / cajoling) and that will come with my Toby Jug pub quiz prize. [I won't make different PQ prizes as I don't want to have a lot of random items out there]

Otherwise have at it or don't :) you can set a cash or kudos prize as y'all see fit.
