thetramfixer Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Understood the grandad implication, but I thought it was an ideal chance to do the proud grandparent bit. By the way has anyone done a general trawl of the OWTB membership to see how many ex/serving servicemen we have in our ranks. When I was at RAF Waddington there were 2 other Latics fans there, might be interesting. well we seem to have three so far.... mind you on e-goat (RAF site) there is one or two on there.... mods.... can we have our own sort of badge????

Matt Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 No problem with the group badge. I could put you in an ex-servicemen group as well if you wanted, just for good measure. How would you use the group badge Tramdriver? As an avatar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only because you lot had fingers like pigs tits. Treat them as you would your lady and they were fine. Except in warm weather, rain, cold weather and when Lineys wanted to shoot off home early.

Great days, loads of travel, but often meant I couln't get to matches! I'll see if I can do a 23AWACS as soon as.... By the way - I'll be splitting my graphics bits and responses from the original Falklands 25 thread just to clean it up - later on mind. The Graphics bit then can be found in the graphics forum...
