What's up with this game? Suddenly the posts are all going out of sequence.

To avoid confusion, I was the last poster with 955. Next post is 956.

The posts are not "all going out of sequence". GU simply posted that he would have liked to have had 952, and then posted it anyway.

It was reported in January that Sally Frith from Gloucestershire had seen the musical Les Miserables 957 times. (Wonder if she's notched up the thousand by now?)

963 - a vertical line on a numeric keypad. Downwards on a calculator/computer; upwards on a phone/ATM.

(And if that looks familiar, it's a direct copy of RobbieM's entry for 852!)

964 is the frequency of the local radio station where I'm sitting right now, (if you put a 'point' between the six and the four.)

[As mentioned for 469!]

The result of the consultation about TfL Route 965 between Riverhill and Kingston, which has about 12 regular passengers on Mondays and 10 on Fridays, is that it should be retained, but rerouted from Monday 9 December 2013. The route will continue to be closely monitored.

    I knew I'd mentioned it somewhere before, but I couldn't remember which number it was!
The A966 is the furthest north road I have personally driven a car on.
