    ...to the fabulous lot of ye.

    After nearly 4 years over here, I'm moving back to the UK this Summer, and will treasure very fond memories of the "early months" of airsofting in Ireland, skirmishes at the old and current HRTA, most of the regulars/"old hats" in here and over at the IAA.

    Thx to teh Interweb, I'll never be further than a pm away and will be able to keep a finger on the pulse in here and elsewhere, as I look forward to witness how the sport carries on growing in the Republic.

    Guys -and Gals!- it's been an absolute pleasure right the way through, it's been an honour to play a teeny part, and of course it's been and will continue to be 110% gas for all comers, n00bs and seasoned vets.

    Special thx/byes to the Zs (they know who they are ;) ), and to the others of course (they also know who they are :pac: ), and see ya round whenever...

    Ah Ambro don't go !!!!

    Its been a pleasure skirmishing with you and you have been and will be missed from the field of action. If you are not heading off for a while I think you should try and head out for one last skirmish.

    Good luck in the UK and sure you can suss out the sites there and invite us all over ;)

    +1 from me!

    It's a shame to see you go, but best of luck with the move back to the UK ambro. Irish airsoft has lost a valuable contributor imo. So from another Z'er; good luck and all the best!

    Thank you for everything you've done for airsoft and the IAA. You'll be missed. Best of luck with the big move.

    Another +1 for coming out for one last skirmish!

    Congrats Ambro, and thanks for everything you've done for Airsoft in Ireland.

    Best of luck in the land of the Sassenach :D

    Sorry to see you go. Please come out for one more skirmish.

    Thanks for all your work for the IAA and being a very pleasant player(/human sheild :P),
    Simon

    lethal is jealous of ambro, he gets to play all the really cool sites in the UK....

    Best of luck to you Ambro. So the rumours of you becoming a porn star in the UK were correct. :p Who would have thought! ;)

    If you are still here next weekend, we'd love to see you down in Duncannon so that we can give you a proper send off (I'm sure they have plenty of nice pubs down there).

    Slan agus beannacht!

    Good Gawd, this thread reads like a Who's Who of airsoft on Boards and in Ireland! :eek:

    We're scheduled to lift off sometime in July, so I'll be sure to try and make at least one more (fair weather :cool: ) skirmish, but I've gotta get my health back up to scratch first (not been well for a while), then take care of a gazillion other stuff that I've thought of and haven't yet thought of, before I can 'go out and play' ;)

    Thank you all for your kind words - to me, this just sums up the community down to a T :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭N.O.I.P.


    Wow man it'll be sad to see you go, you played an immeasurable part in the creation of the IAA and were a great assest to Airsoft in Ireland.

    I'd suggest a 21 gun salute at the airport when you're leaving but I get the impression it wouldn't go down too well, so a farewell game it is :D







    Oh is there any chance you could take Hivemind with you? :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 83 ✭✭hawkeye1000


    ambro on behalf of the ghosts its been a pleasure. thank you 4 everything u have done 4 airsoft in this country and for everything u did with the IAA. u will be sorely missed by all. good luck in england. +1 more for one last game before u go. :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,984 ✭✭✭NakedDex


    Congrats on the job Ambro, it's sad to see you go. You've done a hell of a lot of work for airsoft in Ireland and we all appreciate it greatly. You're a damn fine skirmisher and one of the nicest people I've met carrying a rifle, you're a yardstick to those who come after you.

    The old HRTA tanker will miss you too...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 409 ✭✭nonex


    It's a sad day to see one of the first airsofters and a very valuable
    contributor to the irish airsoft community go, and not just an airsofter but a dear friend to all that have had the pleasure to meet you.
    farewell dear friend,
    paul & mel,
    hrta.

    ps: if you can make it out us before you go, not just for a game, but just for chat with some friends before you go.

    Glad to hear you are getting your health back mon ami. You were working awful hard there for a while.

    It's been great working with you man and I'm pretty sure we'll bump into one another again soon ;)
