The New Anorak
AFTER much planning the new Anorak site is here.
There are improved features. Things are better.
- Celebrities are more stunning.
- Politicians’ smiles are brighter.
- Sportsmen are more triumphant.
- Money is yours for the taking.
Over the next week or so we will introduce still more features – including forums.
Your ideas are appreciated and, for now, can be submitted at the end of each article.
Send in your articles and point out things you have enjoyed looking at and reading.
Along with the death threats, incantations and adverts for a bigger pen!s, we will read your ideas and debate them in the War Room here at Anorak Towers.
Old Mr Anorak extends the shaking hand of friendship to all his readers.
Just back from taking the Thai ladies’ ping-pong team through their paces at his winter training camp, our patron is ready for a new challenge.
Thanks for reading
Paul

What’s happened to the caption competition?
March 11th, 2007 at 10:38 am
It will be return later this week.

Relaxing weekend at the poolside with the Thai Ladies Ping Pong team and the odd bucketful of Singapore Sling Paul???
Up and off. Well done. Look forward to seeing developments.

Wow…A whole new format for me to get my tiny little brain around. I have a sense that we’re gonna have such larks with this. I like it - a whole new challenge just when I thought I had the old format all figured out.
However, I don’t even know if my post will post seeing how - Omigod - I have to do maths at the spam protection box. Sweet Jayzus, life used to be so straight forward. My cramped brain is in “Mornin after the night before” mode with added angst of it being one hour later right now than it was this time yesterday due to some fuckwit’s idea to “spring forward” 3 weeks earlier this year in North America.
I’m not sure if I can deal with so much confusion all at once so I’m going to uncork something chilled, sec and blanc and try to come to terms with it all. If I can find a way to wend my way back to this place, I shall see you anon but please - can we leave the maths at Extremely Basic cos where I’m concerned a correct answer depends entirely on how many fingers I have.
Mind you, there’s every chance I might be seeing double the amount of those by the time I need to count on ‘em again.
Kisses to all with double to Paul for encouragement purposes and not because I’m a slut,

Where ! Oh! Where, is the Caption Competition ?????
March 12th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
I’m working on it…
March 12th, 2007 at 3:08 pm
No doubt i’ll get used to it. Surely there must be a quiz !
March 12th, 2007 at 3:23 pm
The quiz - like Christmas - is coming. I’ll be seeing to the forums later. There is loads to do. Please stick with us while we work it all out…
March 12th, 2007 at 5:33 pm
Oops! - screwed up when I first sent this query, it seems to be everywhere but here. So here goes again :
1/ Will there be a seperate Backlash-style Forum, or will the forums relate only to articles published in Anorak?
2/ Is it possible to place the number of contributions to a forum in the way that you do with ‘‘Opinions’’. Thus saving me spending the greater part of my working day hurtling around the place seeing if there are any updates?
March 12th, 2007 at 5:40 pm
not sure.
what does everyone prefer?
There can be general forum - backlash.
and then more specific forums for celebrity enthusiasts, Spurs fans and over deviants.

Looking foward to seeing Anorak’s new design and ideas working perfectly in the very near future.
Are you going to give the result of the Britney Spears caption soon?
Good luck as you put everything together.
March 12th, 2007 at 7:22 pm
Britney is in rehab and will remain there for some time
March 15th, 2007 at 9:41 am
Paul:
One concern here (which does not worry me at all )but may be a major issue for others.
f you follow the sign on menu you eventually reach the area which shows previous comment and post. Full e-mail addresses are available for all to see at that point.
There are perhaps those who would not like this right up ‘em.??

Thanks - i’ll look into it…

How do I avoid being anonymous?
When I submit a comment it always comes up ”Anonymous Says:”

Does it make you worry about who you are? Stand on your head in a pair of pink tights and see if it works. Then refresh your browser…
March 15th, 2007 at 7:31 pm
Hey! It was just a question - OK!
March 15th, 2007 at 9:55 pm
Anoymous … that you…?
March 15th, 2007 at 10:34 pm
You’ll never know, and that’s your punishment…
March 16th, 2007 at 1:42 pm
backlash definitely please, and the forums too, and please direct everyone there, not had a Cheryl/ GG bustup for months!
March 16th, 2007 at 4:11 pm
It’s accepted things can be little not joined up every so often right now, but, are we getting the Brit Spears caption results?
There have to be some crackers in there somewhere. or, were entries parboiled during server flash over?

Hi Paul Sorene,
regarding the new caption contest. Some questions.
1 How often will you decide a winner/runner ups?
2 Is there a prize for the winner?(or the honour of winnning?)
3 Who will choose the winner?
4 Are you happy with the response to the new caption contest?
5 Is MY winners dictionary from last August still going around the world before reaching Brazil?
March 17th, 2007 at 12:01 am
I bet you any money there is NO dictionary
March 17th, 2007 at 1:44 pm
Is it possible to upload pictures when posting a comment to a forum? And if so - how is it done?
March 17th, 2007 at 2:35 pm
thanks - i will look into the enitre forum thing which is not really happening right now
March 17th, 2007 at 5:02 pm
Bill spilt beer all over it……
March 17th, 2007 at 6:45 pm
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!
I bet whoever ‘‘Grassed me up’’ is either June or Duncan. Don’t you just hate this anonymous thing? Well, tell the Ed., then.
Go on, go on, I dare you!
March 17th, 2007 at 7:24 pm
well it was the sight of you crawling on all 4’s licking it up (June)
