    Good to see you in these
    turbulent waters Ricky.
    This thread occasionally
    surfaces, then goes for
    a six month siesta.
    For the time, I don’t have anything more
    to add so happy to see its descent again.
    Others might, have something to rattle about
    but most don’t read it,
    and I like the quietude,
    of no one looking over your shoulder.

    What this thread is about ?
    Well it started as a reaction to Razeen’s
    passing, and absence, but then developed
    a direction of its own.

    Aragorn as far as my getting laid,
    I presume this is an indirect reference
    to the lambing season,
    rather than my producing a double yolker,
    or being laid out :mrgreen:

    Tony Blar once said

    you only need two things in life
    your sanity and your wife.

    That’s probably what Campbell ordered him to say
    what he really meant was

    you only need two things in life

    two adoring bushes

    Not been keeping a close eye in Lounge lately so I’ve done some long overdue spring cleaning.

    I hope you are not marking my card Mac :(

    I slipped out for some crones
    can’t take all these deaths
    so have hit the bottle.

    Actually it’s not that bad,
    the menace is playing yesterday
    and just seen Joe Cocker
    blowing a thousand fuses

    with a little help from my friends

    Tor lit this place up
    Cocker style for his short life
    but yes he had ATTITUDE
    and may have gone over the top
    with too many strawberry fields
    in this chill out landscape.

    Now he is the egg man.

    I have been main admin twice
    Bettys Fair – the replacement
    Betfair forum when the Betfair
    forum was taken down for three months,
    and a smaller forum called Fair

    I never had any trouble on Bettys
    but if Adrian Black who was member
    had thrown a wobbly
    I would have probably smacked him :mrgreen:
    He was the untouchable member,
    but he behaved admirably.
    I never had to deal with dissent,
    but at max there were only fifty
    regulars.
    Balance was up to a few tricks
    but I have to say it was a tad dull,
    mainly because I was the main contributor.

    You’re the boss on here Mac.
    I didn’t see Tor’s dissing of you,
    until tonight as I missed his words on
    the five thread, in fact when he referred to
    his criticism of Big Mac I didn’t realise
    he was writing about you.

    My honest opinion is you might have
    overeacted to his words, about you,
    and this place being ditchwater dull.
    He seemed to be legging it anyway.

    I must say I have never seen you
    so angry, well your Davies spats
    do spring to mind.

    I do appreciate your one hour warning
    but at that time I was cooking fish.
    Shame I hadn’t looked in, although
    I think your mind was made up anyway.

    This house will always suffer turbulence.
    I believe we possibly view that turbulence differently.
    I have never run a house this size so can only guess.

    One more crone for me
    that’ll be four dead marines
    to bin.

    Aye Gamble – Tor was on the ‘watch’ list from the beginning. Years of this have left me scarred but with an alertness to danger that would shame a red deer on the hill. The Davies spectre seemed to be travelling in the sidecar on Tor’s little trike and the inevitable escalation of words had begun so it was time for the trike to be nudged into the ditch I’m afraid.

    They did get from Basing to somewhere near Carlisle though so not bad going by pedal power. Mind, I’ve been less than three white lines behind since the Skelmersdale junction but had to turn off at Blackpool Beach to stick a lit fag into Are Zen?’s inflatable.

    Also, in the mist of time, people forget that Davies had been escorted off the bus before I took the steering wheel (I was a clippie then but you need correct change now). Like many, I liked him, in a perverse sort of way, which is the only way with ID, recognising that his inadequacies were not something he had control over.

    Of late I’ve been pre-occupied with these Clone Wars and last night the pre-occupation spilled over into some angri-ness, you are right. I had Slumdog on the Sky+ and some booze and was all set for a snooze while the film played only to get stuck in the Lounge with Gervais.

    Some say I’m too soft, others that I’m over-sensitive, some, like Tor, that I was the wrong option in those dark days but not many, certainly not Tor, ID or the other clones, have the whole story.

    I’m still largely guided by Daylight’s vision and often he fills my thoughts when TRF decisions are needed.

    I am back
    mac
    for a
    little chat

    Well I dont like to dwell in the past
    but as for the dark days and the question
    of who took over this forum, well,
    I had an open mind, although I wasn’t
    particularly struck on the idea of Jim’s mate :mrgreen:
    who was anyway – late.

    Unlike a few others I would have been
    happy with a takeover
    by Davies and mainly for the side reason
    of promoting his 1% exchange, and I thought, by
    God, he would finally get it off the ground,
    I felt his chances were about 12/1 and Big Tony
    lengthened this price and Jim brought it in a bit.
    I did have some reservations,mainly because of
    his enemies here, but if it had happened
    I would certainly have supported him, and unlike a
    lot on here, I liked him.

    I did not know you as well as Davies,
    but you left a good impression,
    and the fact you and Davies were enemies
    did not impair my judgement of your abilities.
    I was slighlty baffled by your negative reaction
    to him, and this concerned me,
    but it certainly did not put me off you.

    When you were chosen, I was delighted for you, and
    felt the forum was in a very safe pair of hands and
    I had no qualms about your capability, or energy
    for the task. It seemed a fitting solution
    particualrly as you selflessly devoted
    a lot of your own time earlier, to helping Daylight out
    with competitions, and in the end
    LRM more or less granted Daylight’s wishes.

    …off for a krone break

    I certainly wasn’t rooting for Davies,
    I had an open mind,and certainly
    some reservations, but you yourself
    mentioned liking him perversely,
    I also had a perverse pleasure
    in the thought of a forum
    with battles ahead – with
    Jim and some of the old guard
    on their mettle and up in arms.

    As there was a financial agreement
    tied to the agreement, I believe you
    had the right to fashion the forum
    as you pleased. I believe you have
    thought through the Daylight legacy
    in your decision making, and succeeded
    in maintaining the energy of this house
    through very difficult times.
    I congratulate you on this.

    If I do have slight criticism,
    the adverts for a time annoyed me,
    but this issue has now been resolved.
    Daylight himself was opposed to pop-ups
    and refused a sale on those grounds.
    This all happened after his miserable
    stalking episode.

    That is the dark period over,
    What next mac ?

    DEATH AND CLONES AND ANOTHER KRONE

    I am back in the dark..

    Mac you wrote..

    Some say I’m too soft, others that I’m over-sensitive, some, like Tor, that I was the wrong option in those dark days but not many, certainly not Tor, ID or the other clones, have the whole story.

    If this whole story allude to Jim’s
    never mentioned, secret stuff,
    that condems Davies, it appears
    Davies is umaware of it. In other words
    someone has evidence involving Davies,
    maybe an allegation.

    Enough of the dark.

    I have been trawling these houses
    for ten years.
    I will admit to an addiction,
    far greater than gambling
    and Tor possibly appreciated
    the push in leaving here,
    because he suffered a similar addiction,
    and I would put money on him looking
    in now.

    I will deal with death tomorrow :|

    I like you Mac
    but your double killing this week
    has raised my eyebrows to alert mode.
    I am very thankful you have set out your
    rationale but I do not fully undersatnd it.

    tip toe Mentor

    Settig himself up as Gervais
    certainly got me thinking,
    but Tor wasn’t the chief,
    I ascertained that, and
    he had the decency, finally, to expose
    himself to me in private,
    as I have related.
    I have never known this happen
    before and Tor may smack of rebellion,
    but he is honest and gives honest views.
    Your Basing refernce
    seems to suggest you consider
    he might have been the unmentionable one?

    Many admin may have ejected him,
    however, although a niggler he posed
    no real threat to this house.
    As far as him being a clone,
    well he fashioned himself on Davies
    but one could easily see through
    the dress.

    Tor I wish you better luck on the moors
    in treading safely

    next up Mac is Are Zen?

    …convincingly good

    Sheepman,
    I feel I am a Kwai Chang Caine type character.
    I come in peace spouting Eastern Philosophy, but if things kick off, and they always do, I fancy that I’m a bit tasty :evil:
    Fist,
    Your name implies you like a bit of aggro, but heed my advice and leave now before it’s too late.
    An Essex Pier is being prepared as I speak for the final conflict between good and evil.
    It will make the Brusilov Offensive look like a bit of pushing in the school yard

    …even better infact numbingly good

    The Wimbledon fish and chip shop thrashing that was meted out to you by a father and son combo will be a mere bagatelle compared to what me and my boy will dish out. :mrgreen:

    very Razeenish…but this posting I failed to understand

    I feel I may have been rumbled. :shock:
    Gamble has served me on a platter to the boss :x
    I think my days may be numbered :(

    Why did he feel he had been rumbled ?
    Why did he feel his days were numbered
    it did not make sense.

    Mac I cannot fathom out why you
    cut short Are Zen?’s life ?

    Was there some prompting from Matron
    or did you act alone ?
    Why kill off a man that mimmicks Razeen
    so perfectly, or is Razeen.

    Tor the closeness of the ? in Are Zen?
    linked him to you as you have
    similar writing traits but unless
    you have a compendium of old truffle
    writings – you could never have
    got so close to the original article.

    I believe the guitar aid posting was
    a smoke screen, I have to reckon
    on a 7/4 jolly Razeen.

    Are Zen? wrote in paragraphs.
    He set out his thought very
    logically – he was very confident.
    I seem to remember Davies writing in
    such a style, but he would not have
    an inkling to come back here.
    I have to go with Razeen.

    Mac, I am very interested on your
    thinking on the character and why
    you detoured to Blackpool and raised
    your double-barreled shotgun
    to splatter out the brains
    of a paddler, before he was truly wet.

    (edit : linked him to you)
