If they need an interrogator in Guantanamo Bay they should get Ron over there because they'd be spilling the beans in no time to get him to shut the f*ck up!!

Is he still going on about that clock face?

Unless I’m missing something, the whereabouts of the boxers on “the clock face” would only be relevant to where Ron himself is sitting, as one person in the arena. Why would he think the listeners would give a fook about that?

Someone needs to tell Ron that the clockface is only based on where he is sitting and we cannot see where he is sitting….but I do laugh every time he says it.

Yes the e Honda comparison was based on how Parker mixes from body to head…

And what made it funnier was he used E honda full name… Edmond Honda

How many kids listening to their radio and Grandoarents would have even known what he was referring too. I struggled and I used to play Street Fighter 2 loads…. Edmond!

In fairness, he does always say where he's sitting on the clock face (5 o'clock last night, I believe) so it's always relative.

That’s confused me more, shouldn’t the clock face thing only work if he is in 6 o clock?

Directly in front but on the far end to Ron = 12, to the right but 90 degrees from the centre = 3.

It could also work if he was at 12, just it would be opposite, but for him to be in 5 o clock …
