Ohhhh double post ! well trebble now.....

Sorry Crustacian, that question wasn't even aimed at me was it - terribly sorry if I spoiled the fun.. apologies to you to Mr Holmes! but then again I could be wrong?

It could have been The Wild Geese......! anyhow was def Mr Burton doing the calling, whatever the flick was - and he was in some cammy gear at the time....

Cool Correct Viper

Yes - I was giving our guy a chance first but you were quick off the mark.I think less than five minutes.

Maybe this game could be a new thread just like the photo where am I one.

Welcome to the board. Is your username a reference to a certain late Mr Holmes of the porn industry?

Well goody for me - thanks Crustacian - mind you not certain of which answer I gave being the correct one?

Where Eagles Dare or The Wild Geese

But deff: sure it was RB - that much I can recall - think he was talking into a radio set at the time

Wild Geese.

... and Dawsey - why me? I can think of a bunch of others, or was I the only one on line at the time?

I'm tending to go with Dawsey on this - I reckon on Eagles dare as well, but a small part of me - down boy!!! - is urging me ( no comments please) to go with wild geese - I can hear the man saying it, just cannot really remember if it was while sitting alongside Roger Moore or Clint Eastwood!

come-on Crustacian - tell us.....

I've always wondered what dogblower referenced? The canine grooming business?

Wow, what a welcome, I shudder to think what will happen if I actually write something that makes sense...5555.

Anyway, I like your forum and even more important I love Phuket as this was my first ever port of call when I first came to Thailand ages ago.

Phuket has the perfect combination of everything...in the right proportions too.

Look forward to learning and contributing to the forum.

Cheers


BTW, double points to anyone who can tell me the origins of the following line:

"Tell 'em Uncle Sam's in town."
