Micky Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 Errr you (we've) been had... The post we have all been waiting for (NOT)..... SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT Are we all sitting comfortably...some on here already know the ins and outs of this, they are the ITKers.. But for those waiting to celebrate a special day...a very special day! It's Southampton related ..Arthur Rd., Shirley, in fact, on the 10th June 1944. Just 4 days after D-Day, I was born As I said, I've seen the documents, and the actual signatures on it, so it is true, it is my 65th birthday and now we can all celebrate the fact that I am an old age pensioner. My birth certificate was witnessed by my Aunt, who, fortunately is still with us and she confirmed quite catorgorically that it is my 65th birthday today I am in retirement offically , as from MIDNIGHT..confirmed by the DWP thank you all those on facebook for the e-cards and best wishes But I lost my bet..I couldn't get the Echo to bite, however the Saintsweb did run a thread on my post, and some speculated, as was anticipated. Some of the more sensible ones urged caution. Some are probably even waiting up to read this..if so... What i want to know is ' will you still love me now I'm 65?'

buctootim Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 Oh how we larfed. Is it wrong to give a pensioner a kicking?
Ponty Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 Poor doddery old **** probably doesn't know any better. Nevermind lads, it was on the cards really.
saint_stevo Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 Poor doddery old **** probably doesn't know any better. Nevermind lads, it was on the cards really. I expect a PM with his address by 8am Not sure he will enjoy his retirement then
brightspark Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 I can't believe anyone could possibly believe something would happen at midnight? was always way too Cinderella to be true.
niceandfriendly Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 At his age he needs all the excitement he can get and this obviously gave him a few 'kicks'
Micky Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 Oh how we larfed. Is it wrong to give a pensioner a kicking? Nope - and he won't get to see sixty bloody six if he pulls more shyte like that either...!!!
fatpix2003 Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 (edited) Patred, what a barrel of laughs you are, you'd have thought someone of your advanced years would have had a decent sense of humour wouldn't you, ****ing old fart, happy birthday Edited 9 June, 2009 by fatpix2003 Spelling
SaintRobbie Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 sorry no good with links. Its clubfanzine.com/southampton. Read posts by patred. The info is from someone who was actually there when papers were signed apparently. He says he will reveal all at midnight. I have browsed the sight for about a year now and he seems a very well respected poster and has been right about everything he has posted in the past. Impossible - only those with real cred post on this messageboard
saint_stevo Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 Arthur Rd, Shirley. His birthplace, a-ha i will have my vengeance! Remember that video we spoke of earlier Ponts? Oh yea
Saint Fan CaM Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 (edited) Thanks for that... Edited 10 June, 2009 by Saint Fan CaM At just gone midnight, the now deleted expletive seemed more appropriate!
spain saint Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 I must say that was most entertaining actually! :smt113 Happy Birthday you old ****!
saint_stevo Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 I must say that was most entertaining actually! :smt113 Happy Birthday you old ****! um....................no
spain saint Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 I must say though I dont go on that site much, just for the reason it looks so sh1t! This looks like a more modern forum, whereas that looks like a 70's porn site!
spain saint Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 um....................no I still think he is a **** for doing it! but the build up was quite funny!:confused:
RedAndWhite91 Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 And I quote Patred - "over to the darkside..must take a quick peek" http://www.clubfanzine.com/southampton/v2.forum.posts.php?id_t=115156&page_no=3 What a joke.
ITKSaint Posted 9 June, 2009 Posted 9 June, 2009 I thought it was funny! "The best news comes to those who wait, not those desperately searching for it.", Mark Twain, 1861. (just off to update his wikipedia page to include this made-up quote ) Happy Birthday old-timer.

Red and White Army Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 Pretty funny, nice job! We need to be able to laugh at ourselves in this life.
dubai_phil Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 Very funny, well done patred! Now, could a mod PLEASE amend the thread title to help save the planet and stop another 4,976 people reading this thread from start to finish and 1) Using up valuable scarce fossil fuels in running their computers 2) Avoid hitting their own 65th without noticing life went on without them while they were on here!
ericofarabia Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 LMFAO ... mainly because I wasn't amongst the many who stayed up in expectation of something to do with the takeover being announced (Mind you had it been set for Thurs midnight I would have been there with the rest of you ) Can't get the Beatles tune out of my head now, will have to go and dig it out and give it a play now!! Enjoy your well earned Bus Pass, spare time, pension and most importantly cheaper SFC Season Ticket Happy Birthday you old git, crack open a bottle of Sanatogen and pop a few vitamin tablets, clean up the Zimmerframe and crank up the volume on the gramophone and P A R T Y :smt113

Saint Nobby Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 Well I reckon that puts all the speculation in proportion. Happy birthday mush. At least we've got something to celebrate today. Cheers Saint Nobby
SaintRichmond Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 stand by for the echo nicking this... The only "Scoop" that the Echo are likely to get, is the one you pick Dog Sh*t up with .........
scott_saints Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 Just read this- can't believe some of you actually took it seriously!! Someone on a innernet forum to be the person to exclusively reveal everything at midnight?
Wade Garrett Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 Well done Pat. Make the most of your faculties. Incontinence and a dribbly chin are just around the corner.
Minty Posted 10 June, 2009 Posted 10 June, 2009 Just read this- can't believe some of you actually took it seriously!! Someone on a innernet forum to be the person to exclusively reveal everything at midnight? My thoughts exactly...
