We had one last year in the kitchen at uni. Didn't actually belong to anyone in that flat and was a bit sticky.

Maybe there are 58,000 people who have worked out that is it cheaper to be on record as having a licence at a cost of £42.00 for a B&W one instead of paying for the £126.50 colour version?

Interestingly enough, there was a sex museum in Paris I once visited. It showed some black and white porn. Think like moustache, hat and a small forest down below! Very scary stuff

Watching snooker the famous unhelpful quote from Ted Lowe

"Steve is going for the pink ball - and for those of you who are watching in black and white, the pink is next to the green." Or was it next to the blue?

I guess if you are watching in black or white, its easy to mistake the pink for the brown.
