    Pass

    28. Who is the Sky presenter of the year?

    I have to Pass on that, I'd get in trouble if I nominated one.
    29. Who has been the best guest in 2014 on the Sky Poker Channel?

    Too many to name, but Channing, Shorty, Barry Carter, & the Bromleys  were all very good. The best might not have appeared yet, 861 have some real crackers lined up for the near future.  


    30. The IDCU Award! Who is the community contributor you miss the most?

    None in particular, but hhfhhfgtrrrr always amused me. VERY bright lad, him.

    d) MattBates
    e) Stephen King
    f) Albert Einstein

    None of those really, but Albert Einstein if pressed. Stephen King? Are you having a laugh?! In an ideal world, it'd be one of the great Civil Engineers, Roebling, Brunel,Goethels, those sort of chaps, or mechanical engineers such as Gresley or Churchward.

    I'd rather not be either......
