Happy Birthday Tom

Weren't most of the originals on here from the forum (can't even remember what it was called now) that predated NO? Think I was only early twenties when I started posting.

 

Anyway happy birthday Tom.

The original board was toon-chat, I think. I found it when it was signposted on nufc.com around 2000-2001. That board then merged with Howaythetoon to form N-O, which massively increased the volume of slack jaws to the discussions which lead Craig and Peaspud to launch this place - by secret invitation pm iirc. I think that's more or less the history of this board's evolution. We've lost some key contributors over the years but I think there's a core of about 10-15 of the original posters remaining.

Aye I think it was toon chat I started on. Dunno how secret the invites were for here. If I got one they must have been pretty much inviting everyone.

Well it wasn't fight club or anything :lol: but they definitely were hoping a few of the spanners didn't migrate over - like that douche who was into sharks and his weird mate who freaked out over the hitzfeld hoax.

My sister got me a green day ticket for Hyde Park and such was the emotion and shock I burst into tears. (For context, last time I seen them I was 18 and played on stage with them)

Aye, I think I'd been posting on NO for about a day and I got an invite.

I wasn't much older than Tom when I first started posting on toon chat, now I'm a middle aged man.

Fucking hell. :lol:

 

Anyway, happy birthday young one. Try not to contemplate how many revolutions around the sun you've got left before you croak it. It might make you depressed. ;)

I've made progress with my life in the last year so turning 30 didn't bother me - if I'd been the same as I was at 29 I'd feel bad.

 

Since I was turned 29 I've learned to drive, got a car, got my own place and went back into education. Most people do the first two In early 20s mind :lol:

Happy birthday, Tom. Hope you're having a good day champion. Big 30. Treat yourself to a new pedal. God knows you don't have enough of them.

I would love to mate but I'm skint :lol:

Enjoy the celebrations man! 

 

Had forgotten about toonchat. Good old days, although I was never a regular poster. I must have been 12-13 when I found the place. Pedro's videos and all that :D
