Simon Knows......

This is a new thread, one which reports the bold statements given forth by Simon, also known as Lincoln. I was going to call it "Simon Says", but he corrected me, and demanded it be called "Simon Knows" and if you know him, you wouldn't be arsed arguing either. He first came to prominence when he stated you could see Lincoln Cathedral from atop Queensbury, a small village that lies between Bradford and Halifax, for those not in the know. Check the distance on Google Earth. Anyway, that story is old hat, and you can't have a regular post spouting the same story, so it gives be great pleasure to relay his latest gem. For some reason we were discussing Iranian stand up comedians, as you do, when he declared that Nick Hancock, formerly of the panel show "They think it's all over" was half Iranian. Now the fact that Mr Hancock is about as Iranian as George W Bush, carried no truck with Simon. He based his "fact" on a report that he did for the BBC during the 1998 world cup, focusing on the USA versus Iran group game. In Simon's mind this qualifies him as a bona fide Iranian. Ayatollah Hancock. Indeed. I wait with baited breath the next pearl of wisdom.
