Q 10,  One for all you music lovers. Substitute the letters for the correct numbers in this equation to get the answer 13.

Another 1,000 mark is knocked sideways like a ninepin after a particularly fearsome 'strike' - and we now stand proudly aloft the THIRTEEN THOUSAND member mark..  Well done each and every one of you from 12k to 13k, and welcome to BeoWorld !!

To celebrate this, we are going to become mildly obsessed with the number 13 if we may...

Firstly, we're going to send Jandyt 13 empty boxes to unwrap, Puncher 13 empty cans of lager, and finally we're going to send burantek (jaff) 13 of the finest empty bottles of 1982 Petrus.  That should get the ball rolling.. LOL

Anyway - for the rest of us...

We're having a quiz !!!!

😁 😁 😁

The cheek of the man! - firstly, lager is a girl's drink and secondly, who supped the other 11 cans??😡

I don't suppose he would have paid to post them if they were full, after his last rant about postage costs! - it's always been a cheapskate site!😎😂😂
