Nelson Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I have just heard on the radio that doctors are saying that George has only Hours of life left.May I ask that anybody with a few moments to spare offer a quiet prayer for this troubled genius.regards colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Those who have access to iTunes can buy an exclusive, for-charity download of 'My Brilliant Feat' by Colin Hay. Apparently Hay wrote the song in 1998 but didn't record it, Heather Mills-McCartney heard it and contacted Steve Jobs (Apple CEO) who got it recorded and onto the iTunes Music Store pdq. Cost is £1.49 for the song and video, or 79p for just the song - and the proceeds go to The Donor Family Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miki Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Haven't had much to do with you Dave but would like to say something about George Best. I am back in the UK at the moment and have had a chance to catch up with a some old mates and a few lads from soccer days. We friends, who have seen Besty play and a few of those friends knew George personally, will have those memories for a lifetime. Sadly for me, I met him but did not unfortunately ever get on speaking terms and have the opportunity to have time just rambling on about soccer, tant pis eh ! Is that sad of me then ? Would I have been better off to have met you ? Nah, of course not, going by the way you post and the way you feel it is OK to take pops at folks. Sorry but I feel you are some sad sod, who by his own admission,doesn't mind working on the black but no doubt would be the first one to say me, me, me, if it came down to a transplant for something similar and you try to intimate that someone wanted something for nothing, look inwardly first......................You see Dave, first you have to give something, like, help, time, care, compassion, gifts and effort to anyone less fortunate, then who knows, you too might be worthy of being given something but, until then, well I guess you will just have to carry on being green eyed about anyone who is more thought of than yourself, which by the way you post, puts you quite a way back in that department to even the most decent average Joe !

one eyed pete Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 [quote user="hardhat"]dave your nuts[/quote] Why do you feel that, George Best was just a footballer, just because football may be your sport dousnt make him my hero, i do look at the sort of example he (and other footballers) set to the children who do hero worship them.

Dick Smith Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Seems to sum you up perfectly...I originally posted this in case anyone interested wanted to donate. Then the cynical comments started. Now we have a newbie (another sock puppet?) chiming in, what a surprise.If no-one agrees with you, Dave, you don't need to make up new identities - or from the spelling/grammar is it an old friend back?Just to labour the point which Dave 'Nolife missed, you would be donating not to help Best, but people who are still alive.
