darksidedog Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) I heard Colinneils wheelchair got clocked, on his way to lay a wager, at 90 in a 30 zone, but when the cop found out what a sure thing he was to win, forgot about the ticket and gave him a lift to the local underground bookie (The Chief of Police probably), and put his months pay down along with Colins pension. Go Colin! Edited December 10, 2017 by darksidedog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyL Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 4 hours ago, scottiejohn said: I also nominate evenstevens for his contributions to/with Oz culture and his attempts to control NancyL over CM immigration attacks. 4 hours ago, geronimo said: Nancy L is actually a force to be reckoned with. Underneath the cucumber sandwiches and the stiff upper lip lies a resolve that Winston Churchill would be proud of. She even put her cat in the firing line! Yes, thank you, I was going to nominate evenstevens if for no other reason than I'd like to meet him in person when the tiara is passed to the winner. I must, however, set the record straight. geronimo's description of me, while flattering, makes it seem like I'm British. While I admire Winstron Churchill and cucumber sandwiches, I'm not British. But yes, Mr. Bitey has put himself in the "line of fire" on a number of occasions for me. Right now we're very concerned for him because he had a cancerous lump removed from his back in late August and it seems the cancer spread to his liver. No more scotch whiskey, rich food and high living for Mr. Bitey. He's home now enjoying a quiet life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyL Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I'm glad to see the mods have allowed the nomination of Dave2, who was a fixture on the Chiang Mai forum for many years. He seemed to have a huge file of photos of everything in and around Chiang Mai. If someone posted about "where is this" or "where do I find this restaurant", etc he could immediately post an appropriate photo. Plus, he'd post photos that were just plain fun of images around the city. If there was a traffic jam or car in the moat, he was there to take a photo. Apparently, he spent his time walking around the city taking photos of everyday life and notable or not-so-notable events, visiting dignitaries, tourist tuk-tuk parades, graffiti, whatever caught his fancy. It was a real shock to all of us on the Chiang Mai forum when he passed away suddenly earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 One post removed. I will close this topic at this time as we will have to set up the poll, which will be coming shortly. For technical reasons, we do have to limit the number of people in each poll. Back soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I will re-open this. Please note that there are two polls at the top of the General Forum for the general balloting. Feel free to select a candidate from each poll. They are pinned topics for now. I apologies for having to have two separate polls, but the forum software limits the number of people in a poll and the ability to put two polls in one topic. It is a bit cumbersome, but the final round will be one topic, one poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After some discussion we will not have previous winners in the competition. Also members can't nominate themselves, sorry, Carlyai. Do you have a list of the previous winners?

I believe that in the thread they are mentioned fairly early on. Previous winners are not allowed to run, so they aren't in the poll. I know that Nam, NancyL, Jingthing and Tutsiwarrior are all previous winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLCrab Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Well I'm not his campaign manager but I voted for Colinneil. Even given his unfortunate circumstances -- and with his gardening and shopping on his scooters -- he seems to be able to get through at least most days with a smile. That takes guts. Big time.

Thailand Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Now that Dave2 is eligible,even posthumously, the campaign has started in earnest. If you were not aware of Dave2's contribution to the forum whilst he was still with us see here: https://www.thaivisa.com/forum/profile/42592-dave2/ Always had a photo and his unique style of presenting them. A good tilt at the title for Dave2 would be a fitting reminder of those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
