dubai_phil Posted 11 March, 2010 Posted 11 March, 2010 Phil, oh Phil...how could you forget the occasional semi-nude leotard clad images of Kate Bush? Due to integration into the local culture, not to mention ISP censorship, some things never get seen
Guided Missile Posted 11 March, 2010 Author Posted 11 March, 2010 Looks like you've kept the fact you're actually a decent chap well hidden on this board. Bad to the bone, me...

You need to build up a stock of Marmite, Crunchies, Pork Pies and Vindaloo Paste, watch as much cricket as you can and learn the basic rules of American Football, it's often the only watchable programme on TV, unless of course you're a dead brain case who can take 5 or 6 hours of Man U,Chelsea and Arsenal every week.
Nineteen Canteen Posted 11 March, 2010 Posted 11 March, 2010 Keep it Saints related, no one is interested in I hate Matt Le Tissier/my personal issues sh1te Daren, do you find that sometimes things in life seem to pass you by?
TijuanaTim Posted 11 March, 2010 Posted 11 March, 2010 Singalong everyone... "and we're friends together" "at the back of the Milton Road!!"
Daren W Posted 12 March, 2010 Posted 12 March, 2010 Daren, do you find that sometimes things in life seem to pass you by? Oh the irony, the "man" with 3,364 posts compared to my 860, lectures me about having a life ... Are you really that lacking in self awareness? You lecture GM about keeping it Saints related after going rapidly off topic to turn a thread about ex pats into yet another non Saints related moany, droney anti Le Tissier rant... Actually I'd put money on you not being that smart and totally oblivious of how retarded you come across sometimes... Lets face it, it's a forum first I laughed so much I let a little bit of wee out...

I find it a bit patronising to have to explain what I thought would have been clear to most so will refrain from doing just that. Pip pip, I'm off to rub oil on my Mum's hamstring - not nice but in the absence of donations.....seems long standing Sainst Fans aren't as worthy as long gone ex-Saints.
suewhistle Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Been having a cackle at the screen this morning. Don't worry about me, I can take care of myself. Built like a brick outhouse, and since I ski every week and do football training twice a week I have excitingly firm legs.:-) Anyway, it's match day and the sky is a wonderful shade of blue with snow down to quite low levels: absolutely glorious! I'll be back later doing me lesson prep and looking at the match threads. Update on the weather later but it looks like it's not going to change but you can't tell what is hidden behind the nearest mountain.
dubai_phil Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Nice little run out today to Umm Al Quwain to the Hole in the wall. It's been refurbed and is now much bigger, a nice selection of plonk and (Thank Fook) they had Magners in stock. Thought about trying the new Peach version but at 4 quid a bottle will wait til I get to Tesco's. Traffic was good as well and a gentle bumble along in a nice sunny day at 29C. So the good news is I'm all stocked up for the match thread, but what to choose? Wyndham Bin 444 Cab Sav or a nice Chateau Kefraya '06 from the Beka'a Valley while we live "The Dream" and win 2-0.
Saint Billy Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Kent, +5 degree's. Contemplating popping open a can of Stella but don't want to spoil me spag on toast so may save it for the matchday thread. Looking forward to a trip down to Dungeness tomorrow if the weather holds firm at +5 and cloudy.

Looking forward to a trip down to Dungeness tomorrow if the weather holds firm at +5 and cloudy. Sounds good, but the Stella when you could nip out for a decent pint of ale? Shame on you, when there are hubdreds of us abroad who would kill for a decent pint of Pedigree or Summer Lightning!;-)

Shame on you, when there are hubdreds of us abroad who would kill for a decent pint of Pedigree or Summer Lightning!;-) Spent 6 years abroad and only came back 6 months ago and have had my share of ale since. Must admit that I missed it too. Spitefire is not bad.

Spitefire is not bad. By Spitfire you mean half cider and half light ale is that right? Got a/h'd on them many a time when I was a waiter a Butlin's during my student days.A very formative experience waiting at Butlin's I would recommend it.

No, there is an ale in Kent called Spitefire although I do prefer HSB from Horndean but cannot get it here. I have heard of a Snakebite with half cider and half lager but not Spitefire although they sound equally potent, nice.......!
Redondo Saint Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Lovely morning here. Expected to be 72 degrees F today and 80 tomorrow. Listening to Gillette Soccer Saturday on the web. 1 - 0 yippeeeeeeeeeeee Out to lunch today and a few Coors Lights.

dubai_phil Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Rib Eyes marinated. Chianti opened, Spuds done for the chips and the mushrooms and baby sweet corn ready to go. Back to the match thread with a refill on the cider
Redondo Saint Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Rib Eye.... think we will BBQ Ribs tonight. Baked potatoe, beans and a pleasing Californian Cabernet. - Silver Oak I think.

ericofarabia Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Just Back from Not Being At The Game ...... do all the web sites in the world rely on one persons input and then distrubute it around all the agencies? I only had access to BBC text and Saints Player Text, which were virtually identical, and neither mentioned anything about a disallowed goal :confused: And last week every (even Sky) agency put us 2-1 up with Papa scoring a pen .... luckily I was able to be in The "Not be at the match but listening to the commentary overseas" category that time so wasn't directly affected by it. Post match celebrations of a few pints of Kilkenny at the pub on the way home from work, and now a few Old Specky's being a cyber warrior on behalf of The Expats ... LOL.
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 13 March, 2010 Posted 13 March, 2010 Daren, do you find that sometimes things in life seem to pass you by? Yes I do, then I encounter some people who's very being is consumed by an uncontrollable emotion which drives them against someone or something specific. They cannot seem to control this obsession or, indeed, lack the wherewithall to step back and view the situation dispassionately. At times like that I realise that, despite life sometimes passing me by, I am the luckier person. These people, not you personally, really make me laugh when they release their unbridled emotions, such as jealousy, loose on a fellow fan purely because he or she is 'living the dream'. So what if someone has had the bullcox to up sticks and move abroad? Not only that but to have done it in a, seemingly, successful manner! Let's get personal, let's mention Tijuana Tim? This guy is a Saint (like most of us) through and through. he's travelled extensively as he has tried, and excelled, in his profession. Why do we try to knock him? He's not shat on anyone, he's not hurt anyone (that I know of). He put his life on hold for a while to call in favours, work with people and network to get Ron Davies the medical treatment he deserved. Not only that but when Ron was suffering deeply in bereavement this same man drove a long distance to console and put an arm around a fellow man in his hours of deepest darkness. So, forgive me, if the guy seems, in some people's opinions, to blow his trumpet a little, fair play to the fella as I reckon he's entitled to. Along with all the ex pats out there. Be they Saints, Manyoo or even Scumpy fans.

To belittle Tims efforts in everything he has done for Ron, as someone who started watching football when Ron was King (but by todays standards paid a pauper) and his sadly departed wife sickens me to the core.

Hello mate, having new windows fitted - listened to the first 80 minutes then went and played a top-of-the-table clash for the German club, lost 2-3, but a great game to play in, now watching a taped game with Landon Donovan playing .v. Brum. Do you go to the HDC and watch/support the LA Galaxy?

farawaysaint Posted 14 March, 2010 Posted 14 March, 2010 I'm an expat Saint fan, what is this thread about?
Guided Missile Posted 14 March, 2010 Author Posted 14 March, 2010 Ferguson: Not Canadian Sir Alex Ferguson came within a phone call of giving up on a professional football and emigrating to Canada, the knight of the realm revealed today. Amazingly, the Scot, who is the most successful British manager ever, had applied to emigrate as a 22-year-old in 1963 after becoming disillusioned in Scotland. “I was part-time and in a reserve game against Airdrie I broke my eyebrow, cheekbone and nose and was out for months. They put this massive plaster cast on my face,” Ferguson told a group of Glaswegian students this week. “After I came back from the injury I played three reserve games. We lost 8-1, 7-0 and 9-2. I said ‘that’s it – I am finished’. I took out papers to emigrate to Canada. Fu€£ing shame, I say...
Guided Missile Posted 14 March, 2010 Author Posted 14 March, 2010 Canadians may be boring, but at least we're polite. I thought Brits were polite, too. That's what I remember, anyway. Another boring and irrelevant view I had, I suppose. Thanks for correcting me.
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 14 March, 2010 Posted 14 March, 2010 Spoken like a true fellow Eastleigh Gentleman I find it incredible, that a) anybody would go to such lengths to slag off fellow Saints Fans, and b) would constantly slag of 2 of the few players who could genuinely be classed as "legends" for what their individual skills did in perserving our status as a top level club for so long.

You did make me laugh, quite uncontrollably! As an old Eastleigh Boy you know well that the words Eastleigh and Gentleman sit quite uncomfortably together, although I am told that there is honour among thieves! Well, a little self deprecation does raise a smile sometimes.
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 14 March, 2010 Posted 14 March, 2010 (edited) I'm an expat Saint fan, what is this thread about? It's for all Saints fans who used to be called Pat. **EDIT** Please, no jokes about certain members once being called 'cowpat'! Edited 14 March, 2010 by EastleighSoulBoy
suewhistle Posted 14 March, 2010 Posted 14 March, 2010 As an old Eastleigh Boy you know well that the words Eastleigh and Gentleman sit quite uncomfortably together, although I am told that there is honour among thieves! Sir! My grandparents came from Eastleigh: Spike Island and Nutbeem Road. Gentlemen through and through, even if they worked on the railways and weren't exactly rolling in it! Anyway, off to pack my kit. In the squad for this afternoon and will probably get an injury: a numb bum from sitting on the bench all match.:-(
dubai_phil Posted 14 March, 2010 Posted 14 March, 2010 Ah another perfect Dubai day. Golf Day for those that work at the European Tour events out here at the now legendary "Evening with MLT" venue. They do a lovely Chicken Tikka Masala spread with a nice glass of Merlot and the perfect golf course in perfect condition in perfect weather. Normally I turn up and play like the perfect twonk everyone believes I am, but today I had that Caddy Shack Vicar round and won my first ever tournament. I miss Blighty, I miss the Real Ale, I miss going to the game with the Boysh, but then you realise I could have been paddling round a course in my thermals splatting a golf ball out of the mud. Sometimes (especially when you get your pay slip and look at the tax deductions) being an expat has it's magical moments Unless you're in Canada I guess. Was I the only one listening to the game yesterday hearing the name of the Leeds player and thinking of South Park and hence the Canadians?
Nineteen Canteen Posted 15 March, 2010 Posted 15 March, 2010 Local nut job in "You're an average writer" put down shocker... I'm cut to the quick... Keep taking the pills, are the black clouds still closing Black clouds still closing? Keep taking the pills? You don't know the half of it Daren but then again I didn't go for the sympathy vote like yourself. For me it was always about dealing with a betrayal of trust and the resultant and expected prejudices that this forum delivered unfortunately just like in real life except the comments are perhaps not quite so robust. If mouths had been kept shut I would not be subjected to your childlike insults which frankly most have respectfully refrained from playing that personal insult apart from the ignorant minority. I suppose it was lucky I didn't have cancer because that really is a laugh a minute just like any other untreatable and serious illness. Anyway, this I suspect may be my last post for a while but before I go can I suggest some reading for you even though you will need to get past the fact they don't come with a red top. Depression the Curse ot the Strong - Dr Tim Cantopher Darkness Visible - William Styron I'm sure being a literary giant like Styron you will be familiar with his works and in this one he explains why 'black clouds still closing' doesn't even get close in serious cases of clinical depression. Dr Cantopher delivers some hope for those who find themselves in that situation. Unfortunately, for some of us our options are extremely limited for many reasons and are less real than Tim suggests. Not terminal but nonetheless interminable and in particular at times of uncontrollable descent into self-destruction a wretched existence for both sufferer and their loved ones and one borne in secrecy out of prejudice and the shame felt by the sufferer and their family because of painfully ignorant people like yourself. With that in mind do you think I'm due a signed shirt from the club? I would hate to ask and get turned down and have to go for the sympathy vote on the forum but then again some of us fight our personal battles in private. Apologies to those enjoying their ironic ex-pat postings. I enjoyed them and I guess it will now be my turn to join you in exile. Top right Daren.
AussieDog Posted 15 March, 2010 Posted 15 March, 2010 Amazing how some people treat depression as a joke. Just because you're not covered from head to toe in a bandage or encased in plaster, then obviously you can't be ill. Having said that, I would rather be depressed than a cynical, foul-mouthed pessimistic cretin (which of course, there are NONE on here), as at least depression is recognised as an illness by qualified medical personnel, whereas being a cynical pessimistic cretin is just a lifestyle choice (well, maybe not the cretin part). Or is it?? Some of us chose to emigrate to a climate where it gave us the chance to live a life with minimal effects from the type of depression we suffer. As much as I am a fervent Saints fan, my quality of life is infinitely superior since I moved here. Of course, I could have moved slightly closer to home but a) couldn't get a work visa for the US and b) I'm too lazy to learn to speak a foreign language. Rant over. Can we get back to talking about football now?
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 15 March, 2010 Posted 15 March, 2010 Sir! My grandparents came from Eastleigh: Spike Island and Nutbeem Road.

In the squad for this afternoon and will probably get an injury: a numb bum from sitting on the bench all match.:-( Indeed! I hoped my self deprecation would have travelled a little better. I am of Eastleigh (and Fair Oak) stock and at 54 I have seen Eastleigh change over the years. I often refer to anyone over about 35 as what I call 'old Eastleigh'. By that I mean involved with local people and the ways of the town. I am very proud of my heritage in Eastleigh, despite the disparaging 'beastly Eastleigh' comments. The place has changed as what seems like overspill has populated the town and I fear that the old Eastleigh may have gone forever. A shame really.

Within 10 minutes of arriving in Eastleigh on my last visit to Eastleigh in August, my teenage daughters had seen a gang a 12 year old Fakeberry clad scrotes try kicking in the toilet door at KFC because it was locked and the manager was only letting KFC customers use them. The little scum bags then went round asking everybody what the effing ell they were looking at before leaving the place. A few mins later opposite The Post Office, 2 mid 20 yr olds walking towards each other, neither would slightly alter course so the old shoulder to shoulder shove and then the standard "ÿeah come on then c*nt" before one of them turned around and promptly dropped his trousers and mooned the other guy :smt108 My young teenage girls thought all of this was great entertainment after the rather sedate happenings in our Malls.
