While posting somewhere else I accidentally pasted the contents of my clipboard in here. And lo, a game was born.

Without cheating, without hesitating, paste the contents of your clipboard. Now.

This is mine:

Fascinating stuff:

(My clipboard was empty.)

Humphrey, the clipboard is the bit of memory where anything you tell the computer to copy (or delete) is stored.

Thus, I can copy the previous sentence (using Ctrl+C) and then reinsert it below (using Ctrl+V).

I didn't know what a clipboard is too until Dave's explanation.

My clipboard currently contains nothing.

Interesting, but I can't explain it as I'm on a shared PC in the Club Lounge at the Crowne Plaza in Brum. I'm just surprised that there is something in the clipboard!

AYE!

I saw them at the T in The Park festival a few years ago performing to their home crowd as the festival is only a few miles from their home town.

I think they pulled a bigger crowd than the headliners (The Who) even though they were on the Sunday afternoon. It was brilliant, and it turns out their drummer was someone I knew.
