lappinitup 629 Posted January 27, 2008 Good to meet you Jas, nice to put faces to names from this board (bit like the old CB days when we all used to meet in the Manor House). Good man.A picture and write-up can be found on the FONCY website.....http://www.foncy.co.uk/FrameLatestNews.htmlArrdee is the one on the right (I must stress he''s not nearly as old as he looks in that picture).On a more serious note though, well done to Ray and Nutty for all the hard work they''ve both put into making the free bet thread the success it is and long may it continue. And a special thanks to Billy Dixon because without him none of this would be possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arrdee 2 Posted January 28, 2008 No I can''t agree "Lapp" in all of my 57 yrs that''s one of the best photos I have ever had ,Its taken yrs off me I haven looked so well since I was 55 at least . What I am disappointed in is the fact that Foncy used that one instead of the ones with all you lovely old Pickers on . It looks like I am trying to steal the limelight I should have twigged that but you get caught up in the excitement of the moment and these thoughts go out of your head , sorry about that . We intend to do better with the Pink Un [Y] arrdee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macdougalls perm 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Damn, I wish I''d known about this - I would definitely have come along - it would be great to put some faces to names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
we8wba 0 Posted January 28, 2008 like to say what a great job the free bet people have done with everyone pulling on the thread to help one another but special thanks to nutty nigel and ardee.maybe one day when the freebetthread has grown to the biggest thing in the uk it can come on tour around my way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,902 Posted January 28, 2008 I agree with Arrdee in that I am also disappointed about the choice of photo on the FONCY web site. I have spent the last hour trying to rectify this somewhat and I think I have managed to get the other photo''s online so that you Free Bet Fredders can see them. So I hope these links work! However, actually inserting the photo''s in this post proved to be beyond me!http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj76/canaryeddie/FONCYpresentation.jpghttp://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj76/canaryeddie/FoncyPresentation2.jpgI enjoyed meeting the posters on the day and also Billy Dixon who is a genuinely nice guy. He deserves our thanks for freely sponsoring the Free Bet Thread and also for making sure that when we do win we win more than we would with the ''big houses''. Any of you posters who do fixed odds coupons should really get in touch with Dixmar Racing because although you wouldn''t win more often you would win more money when you do win. Why not check him out on 01603 417699. I enjoyed meeting Jas and Lappin'' who I had met before and it''s always good being in Arrdees company.Let''s hope we have another presentation at the end of the season.

I know which on jas is. I''ve worked it out. [;)]Btw we8wba, Cameroon hammered Zambia 5-1 so not a good prediction by me there. BUT Angola beat Senegal quite well at a nice 3-1. So it''s not all bad lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
