One for the real old timers, but does anyone recall the first (that I know of) stalking case, back before we had Kiltgate, Kiltgate, Kiltgate, Kiltgate, Eviegate, and Kiltgate? St. Sam and CTWD. Now that was a tale of passion, fear, birthday cards, and stalkery! I'm sure I recall a post where she eventually snapped one day, and listed all the stuff he'd said, done, sent her, and then emphasised that she didn't want to know him. Anyone else remember this, or is my memory playing tricks on me in my old age?

Hang on I don't quite follow, who was stalking who, how and why?

The photoshop thread of the picture of Ruggy at the 5's event a couple of years back always has me laughing. Actually I think thats in the Gold section - will be heading there after this!

A boy once came on here saying that he an his mates were going to do the West Highland Way while pushing their disabled friend in a wheelchair to raise money for charity as it had never been done before.

I and several others claimed this was absolutely impossible. He never did come back on but he knew p&b poster Gaz's sister and 'appartently' they complete it, yet I or no one ever read/heard about this great achievement.

I've always wanted answers.

There's a wheelchair guy down here who climbs mountains.

I don't think that was Db62 was it?

But I remember Ric taking a flakie (what else!) a few years back when there was talk of a Tron sequel...Ric was against it because people were far more computer aware these days, and were no longer willing to believe they could be sucked into a computer and forced to ride a motorbike, and so it wouldn't work.

He'll be foaming at the mouth come December when it's released this year. That was brilliant. It reminds me of the time my pal stated the Narnia movie wasn't as believable as the LOTR movies. When pressed as to why his reply was "it's got talking beavers in it".

I know exactly what Ric is getting at with that stuff. Plotting a film like that has to have some sort of credibility, however far the stretch may be. I too remember watching Tron and being a bit pissed off at how daft it was, right up until the point that they got into the computer, at which point it all got to shiny, distracting and interesting. I don't think special effects on their own will work with this.

I know what you mean, this was the same reason that I couldn't enjoy Honey, I Shrunk The Kids.

As for my favourite Pie and Bovril-related moment, it was the Ron Burgundy -vs- Kilt debacle on the Glasgow Airport terrorist attack thread. Some of the beatdowns on that were sublime.

CTWD was stalking Saint Sam. I seem to remember somehting about getting her car burnt out but I don't know if that was a threat he made to her or something. It got quite public and made for some amusing reading.

I miss Ron's posting more than any other ex or banned poster. He has a classic sense of humour and is just on the right side of true insanity to make it all the better.

Favourite laugh out loud stuff though was definitely the state of flooring in Kosovo.

Some of the lengths he went to to try and woo her were amusing/horrific (delete as appropriate).

I can vaguely recall Fast Action claiming that the Northern Rock was a good investment and that he'd bought a lot of shares in them. Something along those lines. Northern Rock disappeared not long after these claims, as did Fast Action.

£70,000 worth! Free money apparently, the thread's in the gold forum.

I remember St Miranda claiming he was a top lecturer at the London Business School and that he wasn't Supras.

Didn't he post a picture of a cricketer and say that it was himself too?

Doesn't LOTR have walking, talking, fighting trees?

I always loved reading your back and forths with SPLwankwankwank. I can't remember which of you was the boo boy and which was the happy clapper, but it was all very funny

Ruggy's entire digital music collection was compiled during that time.

The most obvious thing I can remember about P&B's earlier days was that you could keep up with the entire board with ease. An helpful resource to those who had just started out in the wild and wacky world of lower division Scottish football.

Remember the Stranraer (I think) version of centralparker? Sure he was called 'tomas_glasgow' or something similar. In fact, given how little centralparker actually posts about Cowdenbeath, I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same person.

That was Pompey.

[RiG]

In the very early days of P & B I seem to recall Ruggy and Dennybairn engaging in some flirtatious banter with young Sam. Nothing as extreme as CTWD though.

Half the site did. Except Radford.

Is the Clyde relegation thread the same thing as when the Clyde fans staged a walk-out, then all re-appeared on the one thread at the same time a week later, in some kind of weird protest?

I remember the upshot of that was that nobody noticed they were gone until they came back saying they had left.

No, the Clyde Relegation thread is the one when Calderwood Hun started a thread saying how we were getting relegated, as Alloa were beating us in the play-offs two years ago, only for us to turn round and win the tie.

Oh f**k, aye

Wonder what happened to that guy? He was an angry young man.

Pompey and St Sid used to go on some tremendous rants which made absolutely no sense at all.

There was the 'How can he be black with a name like McPhee' debate on a Chris Iwelumo thread where the poster continued to dig himself a deeper and more racist hole if I remember correctly.

The fallout from the slug incident involving Philpy at the 5s one year was particularly amusing even though I wasn't there.

No, he has lead a team up a mountain or 2, so who's the daftie on here? The boy that mentioned the walk or the numbnuts that are not open-minded enough to realise humans can achieve the unthinkable? As usual on P***ks & Bawbags there'll be none of them showing humility for being close-minded fuckwits.
