500th post! Gumby! Cliff!

[Honorary Bloke]

I'll be da*ned if I was going to waste my 500th post on the Friday drivel when I could waste it on my own thread. :rolleyes:

Almost everyone on this Forum (you exceptions know who you are) are the bee's knees.

I am hoping 500 posts will win a free ticket to OZ (actually, two free tickets, my SWMBO has to travel as well). :? If so, I would like to meet Ruffly, sing karaoke with Gumby, swop experiences with Groggy, Flowboy, Lignum, Tassiekiwi, Driver, Doughboy, Murray 99, Bennie, Stuart, Neil, , Shedhand, Felder, Rocker, Al, oh my lord, I feel like I'm making a speech at the Oscars, I fear I will leave someone out. :-

Cliff, Havenoideatall, Farm Boy, Wood Butcher, Daddles, Dingo, the list goes on and on. If you weren't mentioned, it was an oversight, not intentional. You blokes are the best :bigcry:

I've overlooked everyone. I apologise. But I've found a home from home on this Forum. And besides, I've had several shooters. :wink:

I'll include the rest one the next post. You are all wonderful. :weeping2:

Strewth, I'm getting maudlin. Ugh! :whistling:

[Honorary Bloke]

BTW, Happy Birthday, Gumby. :D And Cliff. :D

[Felder]

Congrats Bob!

You seem to be getting a little emotional. Why don't you just thank these (http://www.woodworkforums.com/memberlist.php) people and that way you know you won't have missed anyone.

BTW, what is "Friday drivel"? Am I missing out on something? :?

[craigb]

Good on you Bob!.

Re your "Aussie Bob" tag though, f.y.i that was the sobriquet of a notorious Aussie Mafiosi, one Robert Trimboli.

You can read all about him here:

It's quite a tale too! :oo:

[Flowboy]

Congrats, Bob.

If you really were at the Oscars, you would, of course, have thanked God and sung something in which you use more keys than a locksmith in each line.:U
P.S. Time to put the Scotch to bed methinks!:no:

Good one.

Rob

[Honorary Bloke]

Mates!! It's bourbon, not scotch, and anyway, I'm going to go to bed for a time now. Adios muchachos! (Se habla espanol.):D

[Howdya do that]

Bob,
GET BACK TO THE FRIDAY FORUM. WE MISS YOU:D :D

[Gumby]

I'll be da*ned if I was going to waste my 500th post on the Friday drivel when I could waste it on my own thread. :rolleyes:


A wise move indeed. Shows how comfortable you feel around here. :wink:


Almost everyone on this Forum (you exceptions know who you are) are the bee's knees.

The real tragedy is that they don't :cool:


If so, I would like to meet Ruffly, sing karaoke with Gumby, swop experiences with Groggy, Flowboy, Lignum, Tassiekiwi, Driver, Doughboy, Murray 99, Bennie, Stuart, Neil, , Shedhand, Felder, Rocker, Al,

One right out of 17. Not bad for a beginner (i.e. a member under 1000 posts :U )


BTW, Happy Birthday, Gumby. :D And Cliff. :D
Your reddie is sent :)



I've overlooked everyone. I apologise. But I've found a home from home on this Forum. And besides, I've had several shooters. :wink:

I think a trip to the shrink's couch is in order. Or just get out more often. :D

Do you have the honour of being the first yank with 500 ?
We might have to make a badge or something :D :wink:

cheers, mate, well done. :)

[RufflyRustic]

Bob, from one Honorary Bloke to the other Honorary Bloke :D Jolly good show!!

Just keep your avatar for awhile so I can get used to your new name :doh:

Cheers
Wendy

[Flowboy]

Gumby, I had to ask, its been bugging me. Who's this Faith person you're keeping and where and why exactly is she kept? She's not someone's Guinea pig is she? Also, is that Dragons or Drag Queens?:? :?

[Gumby]

Gumby, I had to ask, its been bugging me.

me too, think I'll change it again

[Wongo]

What the hell Bob, you forgot to mention me. :p

[scooter]

Almost everyone


mongrel :rolleyes::wink::D

[Groggy]

... swop experiences with Groggy....Mate, I had a nasty experience with a bike and a fence as a youngster I'd gladly swap for a fishing memory or two. Then there was the time I grabbed a live 240v, crossed a paddock with a bull in it, drilled a hole in my leg and had to unscrew it by hand. Of course the time I slipped off a fallen tree trunk, impaled my leg and hung upside down for an hour bleeding like a ripper - that's one experience I am willing to give away for nix, you don't have to swap and I don't want it back - it's yours. Maybe the nightmares will go away now :wink: .

Oh yeah, good on yer Bob :2tsup:

[Terry B]

Well done Bob
Not a bad effort for a yank on an Aussie forum.
:hpydans2::hpydans::clap3::clap3::clap3:

[johnc]

What the hell Bob, you forgot to mention me. :p


Don't feel special Wongo, you are not the only one left off the list:(

[Stuart]

Good on ya chap - need more like you.

Ever get over this way, we'll throw a :bbq2:for ya.

[Honorary Bloke]

I knew I'd be for it if I started on names. :- Wongo, JohnC, Scooter, CraigB, my apologies. Others as well. Hope this thread dies a quick and painless death, or I'll be apologising all day. :D
