One more apology

Postby SpikeHatchett » Mon Nov 20, 2006 11:25 am

Sorry again. What a tube I am. I meant to ask Rob for an update.

Idiot Rob, please could you give the forum an update on the first week's progress on the campaign. Now we're on Day 8, it would be nice for everyone to know how we're doing.

Thanks.

PS Supernoz, maybe you could put the Ebay link on here, in case anyone wants to buy a Not Long Till Combe t-shirt.

PS All, I think I'm finsihed apologising for a bit, so feel free to add some more uninterrupted Rob-baiting.

Taube.

Texting

Postby Idiot Rob » Mon Nov 20, 2006 12:21 pm

I have a bit of a dilemma at the moment.

In his quest for the 'latest text' shirt - Spike texted me at 4.45am on Sunday. Does this count as a standard text the following morning or is it technically Saturday night still?

Yours tiredly,
Idiot.

247 texts in the first week of campaigning!!!!!! Phenomenal effort, everyone. If someone could answer the original question on this thread (ie How long is it until 'combe), we could work out roughly how many this will be throughout the campaign.

I've done a quick calculation, and based on there being 19 weeks 'til 'combe, I make it 4693 to go!!!!! Wooohhoooo!!! This obliterates last year's record.

So I ask again. How long is it until 'combe? Anyone know?

PS Not long till combe. :D :lol: :D :lol: :clap:

Launch weeks are important and this has got to rank as one of the best - both in terms of volume, deployment mix and awesome levels of enthusiasm.

- SMS texts
- Skype messaging (though now banned :( )
- This fantsatic forum / poll
- Combe T-shirt offer on eBay

:woot:

Rob, not long till you vomit NLTCitus :spew:

SuperNoz is fairly typical of the NLTC clan. Tomorrow if you're lucky I'll post a picture of RobIdiot with a chip on his shoulder.

Rob is a twunt

Postby SpikeHatchett » Mon Nov 20, 2006 3:28 pm

Essex, you are spot on. 'combe is short for Woolacombe, and we have an annual pilgrimage there once a year - the Easter bank holiday weekend. January and February would be very dull if we couldn't annoy Rob, so this campaign (although it starts on 12 November at 9:32pm each year), keeps us amused.

Fishkid, a quality idea. No doubt we'll pop up there soon to help spread the word of Rob's twuntishness, and generally remind people how long it is until combe, which incidentally is not long. That's we say.......

I had a dream about the people on this thread last night, and it was a bunch of fat 40 year old blokes sitting on the beach


And then I looked at that ebay photo :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Pat42, your 'nightmare' isn't too far off. However, none of us are in our 40s (not for a while yet), and most of them won't be sat on the beach (I personally always go in the water). They'll all be in the Jube dancing, or eating some of Wayne's lovely pizza, maybe wearing some plastic masks bought from Woolacombe Sands shop. There are a few porkers amongst us though, and as well as being a twuntish idiot, Rob also has hairy arms....around his shoulders particularly.

Anyway, nice of you to dream about us, but I do find it slightly odd.
