Does BEagle annoy you or is it just me!

I've been to Grimsby a few times and I've noticed two things.
1) The same guy who put the "Grim" in Grimsby has also been to Scunthorpe.
2) It's not the end of the world but you can see it from there
If it wasn't for the money I can see no other reason to go there.

Now, I have to admit, I do like BEagle.
He has got a sense of humour, and a tolerance for jumped up little s**ts who think it is a jolly jape to try and extract the urine,
But he also does have a tendency to repeat himself every now and then.
I'm not exactly sure, but I think he may have met Lord Mountbatten some time in the past??
Perhaps you could put me straight Beags?

BEagle is old enough to have been Wellington's batman!

As a mere young pup I happen to find the tales from Beagle and other ‘wise’ members of the forum quite interesting. 
Bighead, maybe you should also take an interest in the history of your service…

Now Sunday entertainment
Nibble, nibble, bite, BITE, PPPUUUUUUUULLL - oh **** whats that in the top lip -
Beagle has acquired and retained his prominence on these threads through a combination of elevatory knowledge, sage advice and animal cunning (backing off cautiously when suddenly unseated).
The "Bigheads" who are among us can only dream of aspiring to this noble club, they are condemned forever to roam the world's boards injecting small packages of Grimsby chum.
Up, Up, Out, OUT - Shake - Yeehaa, threw the sucker out, off to swim with bigger fish.
Imagegear - Bring it on.

Ah, BEagle... one of the reasons I enjoy PPRuNE is seeing BEags bait those who, as seems to be the case with the aptly-named bighead, have all the wit and intelligence of a boiled potato. Keep up the good work, BEags!
No point getting into a battle of wits with bighead. He's unarmed.

No, he doesn't...
It's like having Grandad around for tea...Sage snippets of wisdom, letting you know what it was like way back when he was a nipper, what he did in the war, stories of derring-do, how many fillies he 'bounced', how petrol was only 2 and six a gallon and how everything was better without mobile phones and laptops...and then the gentle smell of stale wee on the chair when he goes home!!!!
Seriously though, the site would be boring and definitley less well balanced and informed without him...Bighead...bog off you bogey nosed pillock.
Did I swallow enough of the hook and line ?

And there was no need for a Channel Fleet, England was still joined to the Continent.
Hang on, he's younger than me..........
Guess it's just you, then!
Beags may be old in the tooth and bald on top but he's handy to have around (and the other mature chaps) to remind everyone that nothing in the MOD is original in thought and has always failed before!!!
Beags, hope Civvy Street is treating you well.

elevatory knowledge
In fact, he is only surpassed in his flapatory knowledge, and then only by some of the more caddish elements of his former service.

Bighead, I have only been PPRuNing for a couple of months now, and have seen nothing except quality (often witty) comments from BEagle.
I'm still a sprog in the big aviation picture and find everything BEagle posts or replies to has a certain wise experienced edge to it. We learn our trade from more experienced people than ourselves.
BEagle - Keep the replies coming!!!

Thanks for the last 5 odd pages of drivel. Entertaining though! - in a strange kind of way, you know - just like the need one gets to slow and look at a motor vehicle accident.
Well, many thanks for all the wit, banter and kind words, folks. I've been away from the keyboard for a day (more of which anon), which will doubtless have pleased some...
I suspect that the original poster might have been from a little Friday night over indulgence and surfeit of mushy peas, a well-known Grimsby delicacy. In fact, probably the only Grimsby delicacy. Just hope the hangover was worth the hassle.
I was away from the keyboard due to a trip to the Smoke last evening to attend the premiere University Air Squadron's 70th anniversary bash. What a top night! Lots of excellent people including some well-known PPRuNErs as well! Supposed to end at 2030, I hear it was still going well at 0130..... But what the hell was in that purple drink..........??

How did the London Underground Staff cope with your bath chair Beags? Nice to see that you get moved from the Sun room to the internet room at that retirement home of yours!!
Underground? UNDERGROUND? That's for tourists..
One drove one's sports machine (OK, hairdresser's SLK then) to Park Lane, then hoofed it to m' club. Although the RAF Club now has W-LAN Internet access, I couldn't actually be ar$ed to bother PPRuNing at the time as the lure of top chaps and chapesses, plus tasty tucker and lots to drink proved greater!
