Amusing 🤣



"Have you tried a Union Club sandwich yet?" the New York Evening World asked its readers in 1889. "Two toasted slices of Graham bread, with a layer of turkey or chicken and ham between them, served warm."



Who is Graham? 🤔

Spike, really? Can't believe that their only criteria is to aim for the top 5? Surely they have decided by now that we are a target or we aren't and bearing in mind the hours they have put in to pulling this down .... need I say more?

BTW, for the record MW followed *me* on Twitter (or more precisely followed back, since I followed him first), so draw your own conclusions as to whether he's interested in my views or not.

Hey Cinderford might go down in history yet that's where a great little company started out that we know and love .

rocket - NO. there lies shorters, it's part of their criteria - i.e. sufficient numbers posting to enable shorters to operate and make a difference.

[woodpeckers] 29/8/2018 21:16

Definitely, yes please, rocket. Much easier to find. I donate my occasional coins but they aren't enough to have much of an effect.

Talking about lists, do we want the thread up in the top five again?

The really sad thing is - when Clubby first started out he was really obnoxious (exactly like now in fact), and then - after a couple of weeks (?) he very quickly became not only tolerable, but in my humble view - often very funny.

Something happened in the intervening period, I don't know what, neither have I/would I ask. He has however mentioned giving up alcohol.

But - sadly - very recently, he mentioned that his current work contract was not going to be renewed (which would probably be not more than a week or so from now) and he was hoping for something to replace it.

Seems to me therefore, that he is currently under an enormous amount of stress, and given that he has two daughters (I think) and a wife (partner?) it is better I guess that he vent his frustration here than nearer home.

Clubby has a good brain, but right now - if he was a teenager he would be self harming! But he's not from that generation, so perhaps that is what he's doing here.

I can't offer an answer.

Clubby??

Will be at the AGM, might pretend to be rainbow

[spike_1] 29/8/2018 20:55

Bootie: LOL doesn't even come close - that was absolutely hilarious !!

[bgt1] 29/8/2018 20:53

Lol, I am also on his twitter filter as he can't stand being criticised when he's plainly being a prat..... I don't comment on here just soak up all the good VRS information

[woodpeckers] 29/8/2018 20:51

Would love to meet up with anyone who is around Cheltenham on Monday evening but have to head off back north fairly sharpish after the AGM...

[bootie64] 29/8/2018 20:47

I don't believe I have been filtered before today and it crossed my mind briefly what would be different...erm nothing I think there is a cs filter league table that is easy to be promoted to, you then need to get through this to be elevated up to really being filteredwell here's hoping :)

[forestfred] 29/8/2018 20:46

AGM pre-post
I am up for meeting and chatting with a few Vrs family members .
Best wishes

I see we are back to a Dad's Army script again :-
" Your name will also go on ze list ! "
" Don't tell him Pike !"

[skyliteandy] 29/8/2018 20:37

But Woody, Clubbie did tweet he's a live and let live type of guy, unless he's filtering you of course.

[woodpeckers] 29/8/2018 20:33

Clubbie, you really could do with getting in the vibe of a true Versarienite/Ricketteer...

Swings and roundabouts which ever way Brexit goes we will manage.

[pandeck] 29/8/2018 20:29

Club, you are becoming more obnoxious by the post. Please add me to your list, I find you a very unpleasant man....

[axotyl] 29/8/2018 20:24

Club, to avoid a FOI request, could you publish your list of the banished? It would be fun to see which of us invoke your displeasure; maybe at least your Top 10?

Sometimes, do you just see a blank page on this board?

Trouble is, I'm on it, and you won't see this.....

[skyliteandy] 29/8/2018 20:15

What list club? Is it like McCarthy's?
