Keen to see them all together with the OPs nickname.

But it is better than reading about investment blah blah blah

Entertaining and I'll have to admit I'd love to have a drink with the OP.

Must have been quite a time investment to create such a fantasy, but to what end? Why? I just don’t get it ....

Kind of hoping to see a photo to settle this. I’ve enjoyed the OPs other posts and don’t like to see a reputation wrongly tarnished.

Ok, but can we at least get more details on the old fresh cut flower move? I think this was talked about in a Robin Masters book before.

Or just remain an anonymous coward.


If you can generate something approaching the style or standard of these pieces, I’ll say well done. And so will other members. If you’re not up to it, it won’t be a great surprise.

Let’s focus on adult dialogue and leave the bile at home.

As they say in the trade, time to crap or get off the pot.

Agree.

I'd love to take up the challenge-at the very least to show you that you're not the only one on this forum who has/or had an amazing, adventurous life.

And l'll wager there's probably quite a few of us here who share this-but tend to be more unassuming about it(perhaps because of the way we were brought up-that grandstanding, self-aggrandizing is in bad taste).

Anyway, back to the challenge. Will be glad to send you a link to one of my longer published magazine articles(4-6 thousand words). Or one of my shorter ones that packs a punch at least as good as-or better-than anything you've written here.

But:

1)you've got to promise to read every word of one of the longer articles-no skimming,

2) and let me ***quiz you to make sure you've actually done this.

3) and, again, post a group shot photo of all your Rolexes(with you wearing one of them).

This thread has been one of the best for popcorn eating in a long time. Not even Hollywood can conjure up self aggrandizing sensationalism like this. Can the OP bring this show to the big screen....in IMAX?

First off, well done!
Most entertaining thread I have read so far.

I will nominate this as the BEST TRF THREAD of 2019.

And we're just in July!




Cheers

TBH OP - if you are still reading or even care - You can't create a thread like this without posting a group shot - it's hardily unreasonable is it being called on it.

I love how we were all wiling to ride along with OP's text stories, but there's little tolerance for a photo phraud!

Time to close this IMHO a fantasy island thread by the OP.
