dave2 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 re. He did mention going back to the UK before the olympics and was thinking of getting a bike to ride around there and Wimbledon hes been away from england for a long time ... and if he tries that .. he will be beaten to a pulp in days by a real looney , nutcase , thug : ( not a harmless man on a bike who made people smile ! dave2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArNaSu Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 [All I can say is if I found a harmless eccentric in Pattaya, who has brought without a doubt more pleasure to people than pain, to be a, "nutter" and, "very embarrassing all round" I would seriously consider my choice of city to dwell in!! You might want to have a good look round before describing someone like this, but be careful, don't want to bring on a severe case of Agoraphobia! Just had a good look around as per your suggestion. My conclusion? The man was a harmless nutter. Happy now? KarenBravo that's the first seismic boat I ever worked on. Looks a bit different in the photo now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DD13 Posted September 1, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2012 The man wasn't a "Nutter" He was an "Harmless Entertainer" He gave a lot of pleasure to those of us who were priveledged enough to see him. The world is a better place with people like him I guess that he knew that some people would react as KarenBravo has But he had the rare ability to laugh at himself 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 IMO, he was a "Nutter" AND a "Harmless Entertainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrywonka Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 (edited) Goodbye Glitterman. It took half the girls in Pattaya to put as many smiles on as many faces everyday as you did (though for different reasons!) and it would have taken any of us grumpy things on here a lifetime. It was a pleasure to have lived in Pattaya the same time as you. You will be missed. Harry. Edited September 2, 2012 by Harrywonka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROBINPATTAYA Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 He was a harmless "character". The most depressing thing about his departure is how the negative comments by obviously boring people have dominated. Give the guy a break, he was just different, not harmful. As stated in this forum, he wasn't out boozing, fighting & annoying "normal" people like some of the bar mongers in this town. Have a great life Sir Glitterman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSixpack Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Glitterman is what is termed a naïve or vernacular artist, typically obsessed. Examples of vernacular art and architecture include Salvation Mountain, Watts Towers, and Forestiere Underground Gardens. But Glitterman's work, mere fingerpainting compared to those extraordinary works, was just his bike and a costume pedaled around for self-exhibition. He should have a larger vision and canvas. If only he could have got half a rai around town, he could perhaps just scrounge for junk, productively, and build a gold-painted mountain or "castle" or whatever. As it was, once you'd seen Glitterman enjoying himself (he'd ring his bell if he thought you hadn't noticed) and experienced your initial embarrassment for him, thereafter he was merely in your way as you tried to negotiate Pattaya traffic.

Jingthing Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I will miss him. While it's not like I saw him riding everyday, it was a nice feeling knowing his eccentric persona might appear. It's sad to know he won't grace the streets of Pattaya anymore. I wish him well and I think he did make a cultural contribution to our city of almost no culture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe people would've paid admission to visit his gold castle of junk and see him sitting on his throne. Glitterman's Believe It Or Not.
