Whatever happened to....
« on: July 23, 2010, 09:35:58 PM »
GOS?
He was a fine old geezer with tales from the distant past, but we never see him in here anymore. cry:

What about that miserable old fossil Mozo too? Is he dead now, as he was about 110 last time he posted his crazed rants in here? ::)

GOS stopped posting after taking umbridge at a general discussion about correct use of the English language, a shame cos i liked his postings too. Maybe if we had a brass band playing outside the pub it would draw him back  rubschin:

Others have stated that Mozo did pass away, he didn't post that much in here but I use to enjoy his spats with Kim elsewhere

Wasn't GOS seen at **cough** the other place for a while...? I miss him too...

As for Mozo, I never liked him  redface: but if his age/health stories were to be believed he must be pushing up the Eucalyptus by now...  rubschin:

Funnily enough, I had my doubts sometimes too. rubschin:

I know what happened to Berek. Shame that, as he was bloody hilarious. lol:
Didn't soft mouse go and visit him a couple of years ago?

Wish he'd come back any'ow.

GOS went off in a huff because I criticized someone he had never met for using poor English in a letter I had received. The person in question being one of my child's school teachers it seemed to me that better standards could be expected. GOS took umbrage because the person in question was Welsh and so was GOS and he felt that several of us were taking the p*ss out of the Welsh (which I personally feel is a duty as well as a pleasure)
I have not noticed him on GOM for some considerable time.

Berek left, as he threatened to do, when Wenchy asked him not to use the C word all the time. He then demanded we ban him and when Wenchy and I said we would not ban him he took his ball and ran home saying he would never play with us again.

Mozo has indeed passed on to the happy hunting grounds. I got that from his son last time I emailed the old boy. He had indeed gone blind and in his battles with Kim had become very upset that no-one believed him. Using my accounts with various genealogy sites I did in fact prove that he was who he claimed to be, was as old as he said, was indeed an old soldier and had served where he claimed. All of his tales were true. A couple of  things that he failed to mention are not for general publication. If he didn't tell you himself then I am not going to tell you now.
