I've just experienced a magic moment or rather still am experiencing it. Remember the filum Kes you older gadgies out there ? Well I'm sitting at my PC (4th floor window, overlooking a Charlottenbug Berlin Straße) and opposite to me on the roof a Hawk has just landed. Now I'm not a horneythologist, but know a little (don't quote me) but it's a very rare sight in this town believe me (even though this is the greenest city in europe)and I don't mean the grass which I've just had for breakfast and the cold cider to fend off the head, after the distress of Alisdaires departure announcement yesterday.
Now She has just flown away (I say she, because she's too beautiful to be male ?) A periguine falcon I fancy ? but I do recall Buzzards or types thereof being Berlin based in my old Yacht Club Boat Building Days ? (yes) ver4y countryfied West Berlin was, Wall and all, lots of Military open space on all sides, wonderful for the wildlife (human too ?). I digress, a Magic Moment indeed, really, honnist Guv, maybe we can hear some other folks magic moments etc, a point of neutral thinking without arguments perhaps, Tom Alves have a nice weekend Son.

Fritz on Magic Moments, that reminds me FOOTBALL- SATURDAY-***

I've had a few good moments today - first of all when descending from the col between the munros of Cruach Ardrain and Beinn Tulaihean I ended up downwind from the largest fox I've ever seen (and the only one I've seen that high in the hills - must have been around 700m or so). It didn't see me until I got quite close so, given I was wearing a bright red jacket at the time, I'm surprised it's survived long enough to get that big!

The next good moment was when Rangers, immediately after Dundee Utd equalized, weighed in with 2 quick fire goals for a 3-1 win.

Regards
Steve

Berlin Fritz

This is going to sound rude, but having read a number of your post and visited that website, I have to confess that, quite frankly, I for one haven't got a bl**dy clue what your talking about most of the time.
And what the hell does 'innit' mean? Is that where the punchline is? Hi..Hi. God your so funny mate.
Long story short, nothing you write down seems to make any sense.

Someone had to speakup sometime eh Eek

Wow Gumby, that WAS rude Eek

I prefer a more scientific approach to the Fritz conundrum. So, I have painstakingly examined every one of Fritz's posts and the entire contents of the house of horrors that is his web site and have applied textbook FBI profiling techniques to the data. At this stage my work points to two possible explanations :

1) Fritz is one of the "Cockneys that time forgot". Trapped behind the Berlin wall during the cold war, these poor souls were driven insane by years of exposure to a horrific combination of oom-pah music and a diet consisting entirely of sausages and cabbage. Cruel and unusual treatment indeed for the pure-bred Cockney who’s digestive tract has evolved over millions of years to function optimally on a continuous stream of steak and kidney pudding, cockles and whelks, boiled beef and carrots, bangers and mash, jellied eels, peas pudding and suet dumplings washed down with pints of stout and topped off with bread pudding, spotted dick and/or other suet based puddings and custard.

2) West Berlin, 1965. With Fritz in his pram his mother takes a wrong turn and ends up in the Cockney quarter, home of the notorious "Cockneys that time forgot". Fritz is abducted by ravaged Cockney's and taken back to their lair where he is force-fed suet puddings and subjected to endless renditions of "a-nees-up-muvva-brarn", "a-maybe its because I'm a lundina" and "a-roll-art-the-barrill" accompanied by washboard and spoons. After six months Fritz is rescued, but the damage is done. As Fritz is handed back to his tearful mother he utters the first word she has ever heard him say : "Innit".

Enjoying telling some wanker earlier today that I'm not an ex patriot, I'm a young European, London Born, watching Sky tv's Littlejohn for the first time ever this evening and thinking, "Wow, People Actually believe this stuff !!!", hitting my Docs totally unanounced and being seen and treated immediately with jabs in the back, after forgetting my age whil'st doing Mick Jagger impersonations across the stage the uvver day (eve) even though I'm on the Nat King Cole and must rely on the NH Hess? Eating Red Leicester cheese with Asda broon sauce for the first time in some twenty years, after recieving them as gifts from a Glaswegian mate days ago purchased at Stanstead (néar England), and finally realising that the 11th of September is a far more poignant date in the minds of many Chilleans, innit.

Gumby,

I made much the same comments a few months ago on this very forum (burried in some thread on something, I'm sure). I have no clue what Ricketts is talking about most of the time (or even what his name is or isn't). On those rare occasions where he writes like a human being, he can be funny. But most of the time, I just can't make heads or tails of it. He's been doing a lot of back and forth with himseld lately, as well. This does not bode well for his sanity, me thinks.

"innit", I am told, mean's "isn't it", which is true (why not), is totally inappropriate in most of the contexts in which Graham (or Berlin or Fritz or whatever) seems to use it.

He loves all this meta-banter, and so I'll hasten to end this post.

Life mainly, but waking every day with my wife comes tops. Not dying when falling off mountains takes some beating

I suspect Mr Fritz is a man with an acute social conscience and very dry sense of humour. Makes me laugh anyway. the only thing I don't get is what he's doing on this forum

Tom

Actively enjoying it all

Make that smoking dry. And drop the social sense. After all most of the time he's just posting to & fro himself.
