I guess I won't have a very long international career.

On the other hand, I had to use a US Address to log on because the stupid database recognised "other country" but needed a Zip code and US State!!

And if anyone has ever had complaints about this board being slow..........I made two cups of coffee waiting!!

Midge,
I just checked your reply on that bloody boring forum.

A **** take AND a respectful grovel

Most impresive.

If that doesn't get the old bugger back, well then do we really want him?

**RETIRED** · 1st February 2005, 11:05 PM

**Cliff Rogers** · 1st February 2005, 11:09 PM

G'day.

Why doesn't some one just go & ask him to come back. :confused:

Just a word about "some" forums on the web. They can be thinly veiled setups for spam, advertising and spyware. The fine print can be confusing. Just make sure your spyware program is uptodate.

Cheers (making no particular reference to any particular sites

) but taking a long time to log on "can" be a bit of a worry...if you know what I mean.

PS Firefox Users - Don't think you are exempt.

Cheers

Maybe if we all joined virtual hands and concentraited on the thought " there's no Ralph like Ralph, there's no Ralph like Ralph" he might come back again?

Then again we could find that we are all still in Oz.

Should I ever be privileged to meet RealRalph then I would go down on bended knee and thank the Lord! And then I would ask him some questions.

Ok Ive got it, through scientific analyisis, and useing the mostest powerfullest computer know to man.

The RealNotRalph is..................

But first my reasoning.
Only two ppl were wearing foil outside the Ubeaut stand on that fatefull day, Grunt and myself.
Inside the stand were Stoppers, Neil, Neils two kids.

And, ( dadadaaaaaaaa (dramatic music ))
The RealNotRalph..............................Pauline!! :eek:

Cheers, Al

**NotNotRalph** · 2nd February 2005, 10:58 AM

Well who am I then :confused:

I met Neil, Christopha AND Pauline at the Ubeaut stand at a woodshow but there was nobody wearing foil that I recall. Well, nowhere that it could be seen, anyway...

There WAS a chap with a beard nearby though

So what! It would be difficult to find a group of woodworkers where there wasn't a generous representation of men sporting beards.

Perhaps you are suggesting that someone on this BB with a beard was nearby.

I like Al's suggestion of Pauline as it lines up with a comment I heard recently from someone who knows the identity of NotRalph. They were surprised when when they found out. Does this mean it is out of character?

Have most of us blokes assumed NotRalph is a male? Has our sexist thinking blurred our logic?

Why was NotRalph's original birthday in the profile the same as Neil's?

Al, did you ever live in Baker St.?
