Goodbye friends! (yes this is one of those terrible look at me posts) 09:17 - Feb 19 with 11270 viewschicoazul

In a couple of weeks I am moving to Germany, permanently.

Since I don't care much at all about Ipswich Town anymore and haven't been to a home game in about 2 years, and since I won't be in the UK and won't have much interest in domestic politics and whatnot as I settle me and my family into a new culture & country, it seems a good time to recuse myself from TWTD.

I think I started posting here in December 1998 so that's a lot of time to have spent guffing about arguing over Louie Donowa, Holland or Kinsella, why Jim went mad (the great modern tragedy in our history btw) etc etc.

I'll be here for the rest of the week so get your digs in now before your favourite social conservative tedious moraliser leaves forever.
SUQ, etc.

PS, I added this as a football thread since I know some good TWTD mandem these days don't open General threads and frankly I want to bother them one last time. XOXO.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Good look and congratulations, great move. I hope you drop back in here once settled in.

Absolutely adore Berlin and seem to end up there several times a year atm. Including the weekend just gone, from which I am still recovering. Try your best to get to a few Union Berlin matches out there, it's a fantastic experience and decent football too, current team is a bit like the good bits of us under Mick, pumped-up and always "asking questions" of opponents.

Yes. Because they don’t have the internet over here in Germany.

I hope you find the moral standards acceptable there!

Abandoning the sinking ship. That could easily apply to both ITFC and the UK.

As you have had me on ignore for almost my whole time on here I am tempted to say "good riddance"....however being better than that( ) I wish you well!

No reason you can't post from your new home once settled.

Besides, it would be good to hear how it's going there and all the rest of it.

I started on here around the same time and I’ve always found your posts speak sense.

All the best with the new life.

Thank you all for your kind words. I am genuinely very moved!

Yes they do have itnernetz in Berlin but I am determined to settle into the local culture as soon as poss rather than harkening back to England and ITFC. But joining a Hertha or Union message board is a definite possibility, good idea.....

Stop being such a twannie Chickers. TWTD isn't "English culture", innit. It's hardly like you need a new start from here, you massive wet fart. Anyway, hope the move goes well, sounds exciting. And if you really do stop posting for good, have a healthy life and all the best innix

Going to miss a lot of your posts dear boy. Some good stuff over the years.

The current one has unearthed some comedy gold.

Very best to you and your family in Berlin. Fantastic city.

We have no village green, or a shop. It's very, very quiet. I can walk to the pub.

Thank you luv, yeah I know what you mean, but I am resolute! At least until we get promoted (sometime in the early 2030s, from League 2).

You'll be too full of currywurst and Franziskaner to bother with TWTD.

Feck it, I want to move there now too :)
