    Well there was talk of a few beers sometime over Christmas


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    I suppose myself and Irishbird should procreate, start some sort of race of Super Brothers & Brotherettes.

    Ah It'll be grand Brother Zaph.

    It will be like a sort of BG&RH 'Master Race' or 'Pure Race'.


    In years to come, myself and Irishburd's offspring can procreate with the offspring of other Bellies Winner's offspring. So on and so forth...

    It will be a bit like the James Bond movie Moonraker....

    But instead of a load of Scandie looking tossers in a minimalist style Spaceshuttle, it will be a number of fantastically
    well rounded receding haired Super Brothers, and a number of sexy Super Brotherettes all being blasted into space in a shuttle
    packed to the rafters with Heineken and rasher sandwiches, enroute to populate the moon.

    At least that's how I assumed we all saw the future of BG&RH :confused:

    Or did I miss a meeting?

    Yup. I got that memo too ... I volunteered to bring the equipment to distill Rum, and I'm gonna take that foxy little student teacher wan from Hollyoaks with me, and we are going to create a super race of master Rum brewers. Sorted. :cool:

    Is "feck off back to AH" a question?.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    It could be construed as a suggestion, but it's not a question.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,365 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    "Would you mind awfully fecking off back to AH?" would be a question.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    Ok. :(


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,365 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    No, I wasn't suggesting you should Honorary Brother Terry, I was merely helping Brother Mairt with his grammar.

    That brought a tear to my eye Brother Rigger, it was beautiful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    Indeed Brother, this one is touching also.

    I'm pretty sure it's been posted before, but it's worth watching again.

    First of all, thanks to all those that voted for me.

    Myself and Robbo had planned to "fix" the voting so WWM actually won mod of the year, but damn Real Life got in the way as usual and neither of us got around to it. :D

    Speaking of Real Life, I haven't been around for a while, and I won't be around for the next week or so either, so lest you all think I am abandoning you - far from it. It's just this damn Real Life getting in the way of things.

    I'm saving mine for the awards ceremony. I have my best people on the job - Mrs. Finnegan, Rambert, Katrina and of course Mr. Heboglobski, just to give it an international flavour.

    Forgot to check back on this!

    Congrats to everyone and especially Terry ... would have been surprised if he hadn't won that category, tbh.

    I was pleasantly surprised to get 6 votes (even if CM hardly counts as a BGRH regular, so 5 really!). Hell, I was surprised to be nominated!

    In recognition of the honour thus bestowed on me by this august body, I resolve to work much harder on acquiring a beer gut (the receding hairline has unfortunately started to take care of itself.)

    Christmas will probably help ... a lot!

    Some powerful enemies there Terry. You might think about an alliance with Ecksor or Devore, although neither have characteristics relevant to this forum sadly.

    He talks the talk, but he doesn't walk the walk. I'll admit that he is no stick insect, but beer belly I wouldn't say, and he has way too much hair for the auld lad he is :p
