If a member or guest is struggling to find an interesting topic, I'd recommend searching through the 11 pages of 'All Topics By This Member' on My Balloon's page. Its a helluva lot easier than searching thru the 130 pages of General Chat, it covers more more than 3 years of forum activity, and he chooses some of the most interesting topics (and - as an added attraction - he has started a number of locked threads ^_^ ).

Thanks for being such a stalwart here, MB.

"No description is adequate." :lol:

Yes, that's certainly true.

I somehow think MB would like the She Creatures... :devil2: :whistle:

reformed characters abound

Ur not stirring the pot here are u, divvey? ;)

Where is My Balloon? Goddamn him, you start a thread about someone and they decided to fuck off for a few days. :grrr:

In future MB, could u plz inform me of any future leave-of-absences u may or may not be planning to take? :rant:

Funny you should say that, I was thinking the same thing myself :o

Come back MB!

My mistake, I've always thought he was a bit of a tit.



































:D

That's funny, cos I'm sure you were happily chatting away about dogs on another forum :o

A Legend!

Well fuck me, says alot about this place that he finds dogs more interesting. :banghead:

er...that should be dogs in inverted commas. :lol:

He started the Davey B thread. :wub:

did you want to start a fan club? :D

Perhaps not. I don't want to get overexposed. :ohdear:

Everyone is welcome to become my Myspace friend though. :)

There's a short track that I did for the forthcoming SRJ/Bushell CD which is called "Tomb Of My Balloon-remix". :)

There's also a track on there called "Tomb Of Stephen" by the way. :)

Ahem. :angry:

Thanks, I'm touched! :D

MB - Great on topical news, shite on organising orgies. :D

I tried my best! :D

Just don't call him "Bloons!!!!" (voice of experience speaks)

btw, nice thread MB. Funner board when you are around.

Yeah, now that he's come back I'm not so sure I like him anymore. :devil2:

Yeah, he's from Bristol as well... there's some damn strange folk in Bristol...


:devil:

Darth Vader is from Bristol, and Bananarama! Apart from them, most the famous Bristolians I found weren't too bad - tho I'm not familiar with 'em all. Any genuine tossers in this list that we can shame MB with?

Yeah we don't like to talk about Blackbeard The Pirate too much ;)

Most of those people have just moved to Bristol by the looks of it...and you've left of Beki Bondage :D

My top 3 Bristol things:

1. The Pop Group
2. Cary Grant
3. The Clifton Suspension Bridge

Mr Teach is awesome! I think ur 'coolness' rating just went of the scale. :zip:

I like suspension bridges too...

Beki Bondage. :confused: I wonder if there is a clue in the name?

maybe ur not so bad after all.

We usually claim her as Swedish. -_-

I think TV presenter, academic and my future wife Dr Alice Roberts comes from Bristol.

That prize arse Justin Lee Collins sounds as though he comes from Bristol or thereabouts.

Hugo Weaving's never from Bristol, surely?

Well, it was on the internet...so it must be true. :huh:

I think Bath claims him.
