Mine got rejected too and rightly so but I have learned a lot since from the workshops and a book on writing sitcoms recommended by Simon. I'm going to win next time. Watch this space LOL

Bushbaby put the red down, I can't cope with extra confusing when I'm busy lurking. 
I don't want things run 'properly' I want them doing right, which S&D absolutely do.
Running things 'properly' is what got this country in the state it's in today. Roping off big holes so that stupid people don't fall in.
If S&D followed everything to the letter then the workshop for 10 places, that only 5 of us attended would only have lasted half a day. It didn't, S&D just spent the whole day with us, took us for coffee and a chat before, and came out for drinks after. They are genuine, lovely guys.
Good Luck Ponderer and Russ for your heats, and obviously Ennie for the Semi-Final (see you there).
(If we're all doing the AA speech, then I'm Die Hard and I didn't even make the first sift. ...although I have managed to convince myself that I was definitely 33rd, but that probably has no actual effect on reality).
Is it not red M&Ms tonight?
It's been a while since I've been online, but last time, we were discussing the best ways of staying awake to write and you were unimpressed by my sugar letters and caffeine approach, said you preferred a bottle of red ...I assumed M&Ms?
This is getting off topic, I shall crawl off to bed. Night

In a desperate attempt for some sympathetic e-mails to boost my fragile ego, I'd like to point out that nobody's wished me good luck for my heat on Monday...
Sob.
Weep.
Etc.
