Competition Final Results. The Winners and The Losers
Ah, a sweet sunny summer Sunday afternoon and I am fully recovered from yesterday's stupid fun and games. Just thought I would list the official NMW competition winners just so there won't be any arguments as to who wins what.
The Winners
1st Place
- Who: Diggs from Exeter
- Guessed: 14 beers
- Why did he win this prize?: Because we each drank 14 complete pints of beer and watched 14 complete episodes of 24 and blogged about each one.
- What does he win?: A signed (official NMW) photo of Darth Kendrick and Nurton and two cans of beer (his choice).
2nd Place
- Who: Katrina also from Exeter
- Guessed: 15 beers
- Why did she win this prize?: Because we watched 15 episodes and drank 29 pints of beer between us and nearly a complete pint of 'Borange' so she was the nearest loser.
- What does she win?: A signed photo of something (possibly the beer tower) and a poem written (still to be written) by Darth Kendrick about either American politics or 'Borange' or both.
3rd Place:
- Who: Matt from the hood where Nurton and Darth were little’ens
- Guess: 13 beers
- Why did he win this prize?: Cause he was the 3rd closest, silly.
- What does he win?: An unsigned photo of Nurton and Darth on top of Lord Hereford's knob (it's a hill in the Brecon Beacons before you make any quips)
The Losers
There are two losers to this competition:
Darth Kendrick - He is a loser because he was stupid enough to drink most of a pint of ‘Borange’ (his invention). The ‘Borange’ was returned to the ground from whence it had come at 5am this morning. Nice! I had to take Darth to Sainsbury’s to buy a party pack of aspirin before packing him off on the train back to Leamington. Poor boy. He'll survive.
Bandick & Bobrail are joint losers for the worse guesses:
The wooden spoon prize: As my housemate Nick got distressed last time I mentioned the possibility of losing a wooden spoon, I think if I gave two of them away then she might hit me. So instead the prize for the worse guess will be a pint of 'Borange'. Unfortunately 'Borange' is banned in most countries and any packages containing it are likely to be discovered by sniffer dogs at customs. Also I can't afford to post anything. So instead if Darth agrees he will email the "secret recipe" to you guys and you can make your own pint and drink it as a punishment for being bad guessers.
And finally while Darth was still comatose in Nicks bed this morning; look (below) what lucky Noely got to clean up. Our house is fecking spotless now. Phil even brought his parent’s vacuum cleaner. Girls (Nick + Harry) give me your respect!

Bloody students! Do you want sympathy for having to clear up after yourselves? Or maybe a medal? Unlucky; the consequences of home-boozing is home-cleaning.
We were at your parent's on Friday. I think you should thank us for not getting them to ring you up during your challenge in order to ask you what you were spending their hard-earned on...
"Hard earned"!!!! It's Dad's first week of pension. He's done OK without it up to now!
err, I think you need to clarify, Nurton, that I was NOT present whilst Stuart was comatose in my bed. Would hate to have such a huge misunderstanding posted on the internet.
Well done, the fact that you managed to sit through 15 episodes of something as dull as 24, drinking something as horrid as beer (not even gonna mention borange) and eating something as rank as curry (in my opinion anyhoo) deserves congratulations. Am also thrilled you cleaned the house, judging by the state it was in from the piccies.
Nice to know you spend your time in a wholly mature and responsible way whilst I am not there to cast my "mothering" eye over you :p
