Sorry and not being a pain but are you joking? It's a card game and that was the reference not that wig wearing 6 foot Umpa Lumpa. Why is it banned, I'm not sure I understand?

Orcade-Ian:
We bought an almost new '55 plate Citroën Blingo Van just after we moved permanently here in 2007.  A few years later I jumped in it to go into town and it was flat - everything dead.  Took Christine's Civic instead and checked the voltage when we got back - 3 volts!!  Charged over night and it started fine, so I went to a nearby garage who still used one of those brutal drop testers with a big shorting resistor.  'Nowt wrong with that one mate' was the comment.  We soldiered on with that battery and eventually sold the van to a friend here in Orkney.  He replaced that battery for the first time during the initial lockdown in April 2020 - 15 years old on a diesel van now with well over 120k on the clock.  It did have mysterious gremlins though - switching on the radio/cd and nothing would happen.  Another day or so later you would go to open the rear doors and the bloody radio would come on!
