The trouble with 69 is that it's a bit of a mouthful!

Two little ducks, 22 for me!

I think I read that Hayden uses it because it looks the same upside down, and his dad used to race that number.

I suspect that Whitham chose it for its other significance

Casey Stoner should adopt this number!

Hmm good question, maybe 11 after my birthday, not sure. Number 1 would be nice though

There is a reason for the number, you have to think back before mobile phones

That's what my sister and her hubby always put at the bottom of their cards.. 143

I could tell you what it is but then I'd have to kill you!!

Not sure if yours is the same reason as hers tho...?

I'd have 1 because that is my birthday

I'm sure it's the same reason
Back when mobile phones were the size of bricks and only for the yuppies to yell 'buy, buy, sell sell' into, we used to communicate with radio pagers. Drop 20p in a phone box, dial the pager bureau, and type in the number you want displayed on the pager. (number only pagers - available from Argos!).
We got extremely good at sending and decoding whole sentences, just represented by the number of letters in the word. The forerunner of text speak..

as most of you have guessed, 143 was I love you.

if i had a choice it would have to be 1.

23, lucky number
