    Scotland have won the World Elephant Polo Championship 3 times.

    They lost it in 2009 to England.

    Switzerland won the 2010 Elephant Polo Championship.

    The French have never won it. 😏

Blocking microwaves is rather harder, but then, sending them out tends to be kinda obvious.

    It was definitely microwave transmissions- the players were bringing frozen lunches to the board, but they were ready to eat by the second time control.

    You won't see a thing. All it takes is a sufficiently fine (and that need not be very fine) mesh in the walls and doors.

    That's merely because they have better things to do with their time.

    Like eating your rugger buggers alive - hair, bones an'all.

    Wisdom? You accuse me of wisdom!?

    Nah, mate. Mere knowledge. True wisdom would not be seen dead in my company.
