Capital Summertime Ball 2024

[Scott Mills]

Hi geeks,

It's the Lord here. How are you? I am looking forward to meeting some of you lot at the annual 'geek world' meet up some time this year!

Just a quick request on behalf of my Sport Relief appeal.

Will you please text 'Scott' to 70011? You know I don't like sport and this week really is hell. Your contributions really will boost morale this week!

Remember texts cost £1 and to ask the bill payer before texting... etc!

Love you,

Scott x

[Jono]

I think I'll make you suffer before I text. But rest assured I'll have it sorted by Friday!

[Viv]

I have texted 3 times so far, and have given on-line.

Will see if I can make some sacrifices (i.e. less lattes/cappuccinos) before the week ends. :-) And give again....

Remember, people, here's just some of the stuff YOUR donations can help with:-

1. In Kenya, £2.00 can feed a child orphaned by AIDS for one day.

2. £10.00 can pay for a volunteer to visit an isolated older person in the U.K., so they feel less alone....

3. £250 in Sport Relief will buy 5 sewing machines in Uganda so those in poverty can work.

SCOTT to 70011.

Big donations matter, but every little helps... if you can go without some choccy bars for today, then text in the money saved ...

PS: And don't be going mad at another S. R. topic, because it ends this week, and the more people (for example, guests) view stuff, the more cash goes in!! honk, honk

[Viv]

Here's a really funny joke ... if the following joke makes you laugh, then text SCOTT to 70011:-

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?

A: To get to the other side

Q: Why did the cow cross the road?

A: To get to the other side

Q: Why did the sheep cross the road?

A: To get to the other side

Q: Why did the farmer cross the road?

A: To get his animals back :hahaha:

The Lord?

[Viv]

That's what he always call himself!! It's supposed to be a running joke, I think ?!

('bout time it ran off though - ha ha)

[Roy H]

Thats right. I never once heard him make that reference on the show though.......

[Viv]

He has said it in the past on air when listeners have texted in calling him a 'Lord' - and it's been posted on here by him several times. It's no big deal anyway. :-)

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

£10.00 can pay for a volunteer to visit an isolated older person in the U.K., so they feel less alone....

I'm confused... volunteers generally, um, DON'T get paid apart from maybe travel costs... :confused:

That's what he always call himself!! It's supposed to be a running joke, I think ?!

like Moyles being the Saviour... wait, does that mean that Moyles is Mills' son? :eek::crazy:

[Viv]

Well, I take it that's what it must mean: travel expenses... got the info. off of the Sport Relief website.

Regarding your second post, I think Scott is playing about with words - i.e. Lord = gay lord?!!

My head is beginning to fizz......

[Jono]

As the jingle once went... "If Chris Moyles is the saviour, Scott Mills is the Lord".

[Roy H]

Who makes up the Trinity then - Fearne? No? :

[KingTutsWWH]

I think not.

I'm so impressed by the Lord's efforts. Feel right proud of him.

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

Who makes up the Trinity then - Fearne? No? :

Jo Whiley.

[Viv]

Maybe Becky in the middle!! :hahaha:

If Moyles goes, will Scott then become a Saviour, or require a different title...

"Scotty, Queen Of Poo" (just a thought) - I'm feeling vicious now, proper vicious

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

Maybe Becky in the middle!! :hahaha:

Laura wouldda been better for that, way back in the day... couldda made up part of the ONWL tour/competition

[Viv]

BTW, This Geek convention by the way would be well advised to be arranged for Scotland - they are going to Edinburgh again this year - thus saving your's truly lots of money in travel expenses. And everyone else can shell out a fortune.

And Yes, Laura would have been better. I wish she was around again :-(

See ya Friday!! :-)

[Roy H]

Scotts tackled the BT tower and The Gherkin. As I type hes at 1 Canada Square, Canary Wharf.

To donate to Sport Relief text 'SCOTT' to 70011

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

So he'll be going through the Torchwood bits of the tower then...

[Lee.]

today ive been feeling so so bad for what scotts gotta do today and there only gonna get worse !!!!

[Timsk]

Great to see Scott posting again. Today's mile was seriously difficult - those are some seriously tall buildings there - I wince when I imagine the aches and pains he'll be feeling tomorrow...

Somehow it makes this particular charity event feel even more deserving of a contribution, seeing the amazing lengths our Lord is going to.

[Dexter]

Damn right.... Scott is The Lord!

Well done Scott for soldiering through the miles from hell so far.

What a trooper! :

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

I'm also hoping it's swimming, but with some devious twist... as long as he's not swimming in the sewers he was wading through, right? Maybe they'll shove him on a train to Brighton for a swim in the channel?

lol, I heard someone doing a readout of the stats/facts earlier where they said the volunteer would be paid for with just one pound, basically switched those 3 around and added something else...
