I know, it's hysterical

I thought he had insects on him

JustKeepSwimming · 19/08/2009 19:54

i think it's cars?

weird though.

brimfull · 19/08/2009 19:54

i thought crabs

ds agrees with you

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 19:55

I thought giant cockroaches

foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 19:55

they definitely look beetle-like and have legs

brimfull · 19/08/2009 19:56

tis crabs-i tell you

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 19:57

can't think why you'd want to advertise crabs

foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 19:58

dh says spiders

brimfull · 19/08/2009 20:00

we could send him a text and ask

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 20:01

yes let's do that

I looked right up close now and am none the wiser

one looked like it had a tail

and another like it had 4 legs (2 either side)

brimfull · 19/08/2009 20:03

what's the number

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 20:05

ok have found the live text on the bbc website

will scan it for any mention of shirt

brimfull · 19/08/2009 20:06

go girl

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 20:10

have texted the live text thing on the BBC

I think we need an answer

from far away it looks different to close up doesn't it

Sagacious · 19/08/2009 20:10

God thats awful

He looks knackered as well (is it me or is his left eye drooping slightly?)

brimfull · 19/08/2009 20:11

it is bizarre

haven't been up close though

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 20:13

go up close

the Athletics live text is not very interesting. The cricket one is always quite funny. I think the bloke running it might be watching somethng else.

foxinsocks · 19/08/2009 20:13

athletics live text

think I could do better than that

like he hasn't even mentioned Roman Sebrle and his amazing surge up the decathlon table (given his age, farking impressive!)

JustKeepSwimming · 19/08/2009 21:57

No answer yet then?

Gracelo · 20/08/2009 07:06

I went up really close to the screen and it looked like -quite stylized- birds to me, the ptarmigan type, with small heads. Might be entirely wrong, though.

seeker · 20/08/2009 07:11

My children thought lobsters.

Gracelo · 20/08/2009 07:38

It looked like that www.trojanhorseantiques.com/LimogesBirdPlate11.jpg just that the two birds were closer together and looked at each other.
My first thought was bugs or cockroaches too.
I hope we will get an answer.

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 20/08/2009 07:45

It looked like curled up feathers to me - it was a truely awful shirt.
