W8, D2, L1
to complete it completely). Must be wrong. I have it from uncomfirmed sources that we’re doomed. Unconfirmed sources also confirmed my Chess win vs Joe_Fox so it‘s obviously bollocks! Don‘t vofte Joe_Fox, you tossers…..eh……****s. Autocorrect also disagrees and suggests it’s actually Joe_Dox. Makes sense that, at least right now.
