Thanks Sean Key

I'm not able to like/thank (maybe because I've been away from the forum for a while), so thank you for this link!

I imagine you already found this: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/ioppn/depts/mrc...ticsgroup.aspx

I mean you have generations of Brixham in there somewhere, it is hardly likely to yield anything too classy is it?
Too many people and not enough surnames in the MF gene pool

Weren't there sounds of duelling banjos when MF was in California....?

Well, had the kits sitting on the side for the last six months & eventually finished them today. Had all of us spitting into a tube (I know NLUK's missus will do it to your face), all sealed up & off we go.

It has lots of warning like 'Would you like to know if you'll get Alzheimers' or 'Would you like to know if you have the Brillopad Marriage Gene?' but hell, I ticked them all. Even if it says I've got herpes simplex B gene and 90% chance I'll drop dead in the next 5 years we all know it's a load of bollocks because the Tories had better odds than that.

2-4 weeks for results.

Oh FFS......what are you expecting? I mean you have generations of Brixham in there somewhere, it is hardly likely to yield anything too classy is it?
Too many people and not enough surnames in the MF gene pool, just be glad if they tell you that your verifiable family tree doesn't include any creatures that are happier on all fours!!

Fook you! I'm not related to Shaunbhoy!

That's a photo of your mum on her wedding day isn't it?

[MarillionFan]

Wouldn't it have been simpler, quicker and cheaper just to have sent them a photo?

Well I was doing a 10k on bute at the time...not even any flowers...sob..

That's one hell of a Gangbang I hope NLYUK paid well.

[cojak]

Actually, on reflection MF did the decent thing and coughed up a very reasonable amount to the Mumsnet charity in order to make a (reasonably) graceful exit.

He deserves credit for that.

[MaryPoppins]

well we did go there for a summer holiday, maybe we infected them?

Absolutely not. Those lot mean business, you bunch of wetters.

Jeez, I took you out and gave you the opportunity to stare at a chick vocalist's tits......even if your bird was there, it was still a nice gesture.....

[shaunbhoy]

When you live on a dark wet rock off the coast of Scotland you cling to whatever you can get hold of. Especially grudges..

You are not kidding. We used to get taken to Bute every year for our school trip. Back then we always assumed it was a treat. Latterly it became obvious that it was just a grim warning of how bad things could be if we didn't knuckle down with our studies.

FFS. Did I forget your birthday or something hun ???
