Probably get pelters, but i missed Benters for a while as we would often chat via PM about gardening matters, both being involved in the horticultural business. Was a bit of a plank on the forum at times, but he was quite an articulate and well informed bloke in private, though never met him in person.
Footers always came across as a decent chap too. Shame he left. Hope he returns at some point. |
I still see Benters at home games in the pub. Might ask him to come back..... |  |

....which did him no favours.
We shared lots of thoughts over PM at a time when we were both going through dealing with family bereavements. He was a considerable comfort to me at times, and I think I was the same to him.
He played to the crowd though, the daft sod. |  |

CIL was good
ABB is now a vegetarian so he struggles with energy these days. |  |

I'm hoping it will be on.
ABB might be able to muster half a day if he finds some protein based tofu.
He is eating fish though, which I always find a bit daft | |

Surbiton Blue…. Don’t know how many people remember him but he posted many excellent match reports back in the nineties. I met him on the way to a game in north at a train station (Leeds I think) he seemed like a nice chap. Wonder what he is up to now. |  | | |

I hardly agreed with anything that he wrote on here, but when I was due a reasonably serious operation he was very knowledgeable, helpful and encouraging in PMs.
Also I used to think Wim Burley was a good poster. |  | | |

No. I am still breathing, and much older than you.PJH has been missing for some time. Hopefully the new season will bring him back. Similarly Bluebell hasn’t posted for a while. I am sure we all miss Malcy although those that do social media, I believe can follow his words of wisdom. [Post edited 5 Aug 2021 21:49]

I've got to go over to Olfen and collect some stock. We imported a tiny order a couple of weeks ago (two pallets) and it cost me £1000 freight!
We need some more stuff but the only cost effective way is to take our own van over and for me to do it personally.
I haven't looked at the restrictions but I'm sort of guessing that for business it's all straight forward??? | |

Fiik
A friend travelled last week from Folkstone to the Czech republic through France, Belgium, Holland, Germany and Czech and other that Folkstone (Eurotunnel) all the borders were open, unmanned and no checks were in place.
Think Germany is now on the green list so quarantine not an issue.
Fco site and Eldergrizzly would be my port of call tbh | |

Elder Grizzly is a lunatic, he also failed to get me out of Mexico.
I'll ask someone down the pub. | |

Bluebell didn't regularly post a huge amount but is still around & posting occasionally.
Those I miss most are
Dalai - (inventor of the catch-phrase "look at meeee"). R.I.P.
No.9 - unfailingly kind, to the point, & incredibly helpful behind the scenes in PMs. R.I.P.
JoeSoap - just an incredible, lovely, kind soul. R.I.P.
HarryFromBath - hope he's happy being busy elsewhere :)
Guthers - hope this isn't too embarrassing for him, but something of a living legend on here (albeit we really need him to move sideways, become revolutionary leader & eventual PM of the UK). |  |

Someone who on open forum advocated the gunning down of immigrants as they arrived at the Dover end of Chunnel is definitely not someone I'd want to see up on the wall as one of our Board Legends, however helpful they might have been behind the scenes. | |
