I was wondering about that myself. Hopefully BM is investigating. (He may, of course, still be trying to work out your  reference to the persians)

Anyhoo… I notice more visitors recently, but I’ve never seen ‘undreds… did you notice if they were spiders?

My theory is that as the google spider that checks for ad content is here all the time now it attracts the others in some way…

Makes me wonder if sites like… um the ‘other’ site really did have as many as 530 on Wed Jan 05, 2005 12:47 pm…

All sites seem to have these ridiculously high number of ‘peak’ visitors, the Cyprus forum I use has 205 yet we rarely have more than ~10 registered users on line…

Battle of Thermopylae ~ 300 Spartans defeated the entire Persian army. TG pointed out that with only 195 more guests than we had at around 10.25pm ~ we could have done the same last night.
Carpets only came into it because you are getting paranoid about your hair (or lack thereof)

Right. History lesson for BM.

Ages ago right there was these blokes called spartans right. Right hard cases yeah. Anyway right these other gangs from this persia place started to kick off right and invade spartans house yeah? So this spartan kimg dude says 'right lads we'll steam over to thermopylae road right and head em off at the pass, who's up for it?". Well most spartans had buggered off to maccys yeah and there was only 300 right and there was MILLIONS of these persin blokes right. So anyway spartans blocked the pass right then it REALLLY kicked off yeah. In the end right the spartans all got a right battering and got killed as well innit. But the persian blokes were well held up and when the rest of the spartans got bhome from maccys them and some other greek blokes steamed into the persians right and sent em pack to Persia with a flea in the ear right. Battle of Thermopylae innit. Dont you lknow nuffink?.

Problem Solved!

I assume from the timing of TG's post that these guests arrived 2215-ish last night. Anybody that was watching Al Murray would realse why. Every week they have a "pub of the week" where the regulars form part of the audience. This weks pub of the week wasn't a pub as such, but were the "Real Ale Pub", described as the UK's first virtual pub. Quite a few of those watching will have googled "virtual pub" and found this wonderful place
