Well crikey!
Fancy you, from the other side of the world, picking up on that!
We're a day ahead of you lot; so my birthday was actually yesterday.
A very small affair (I almost said 'quiet'; but it certainly wasn't that!) with just close friends and immediate family, about twenty in total.
Four of those friends were fellow Mavericks and their wives...real hard-case people...there is never a dull moment with that lot around. The Mavericks CC was formed by a group of us (about 37 in total,) who kept getting banned from other forums...if no-one else wants us then we'll form our own group and chat amongst ourselves.
The rules are simple:
1) there are no rules,
2) only Presidents and Vice Presidents can ban other members,
3) Presidents and Vice Presidents can't be banned.
4) every member is a President and his/her spouse is a Vice President,
5)if anyone else wants to join, the consensus must be unanimous...one 'No' vote and they're out.
So with hard-case people like that pouring beer down their throats things do tend to get a wee bit frenetic. (Understatement!)
So it was certainly a night to remember, so thanks for the kind wishes Mike, and Rrumbler if your birthday party was as memorable as mine I'm well pleased for ya!Last edited by johnboy; 02-08-2017 at 12:45 PM.

Glad you were there to enjoy it jb................shoot for another next year.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Yes, Johnboy, add another "Happy Birthday" to the list from me!!! Sounds like more fond memories were made in the celebrating even if they may be a bit blurry to some....

Thanks people.
Nobody got inebriated enough that things would've become blurry; there's none of us who can handle that level of intoxication anymore...the years are catching up to us.
So nobody got drunk, they just got louder; and the stories became more outrageous and R18.
I haven't laughed so much since Ma jammed her tits in the mangle.
It was certainly a night to remember alright; close family and good company.
What else could you possibly ask for?johnboy

Happy Birthday Johnboy and Rrumbler! I hope you guys had a great day. It sure sounds like JB did!
JB, did the tits and ringer situation really happen? Every time I see you say that I wonder if that did happen, or it is just a favorite saying? It sure could be a bad deal if it happened. Haha

A very late birthday wish from me too to both of you guys, JB and Mr Rrumbler. I have always wonder how the Mavericks came about so thanks for the information John Boy.I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

No need to concern yourself Ryan; it didn't happen. It's a colloquialism peculiar to New Zealand, or to phrase that better: I've never heard it used anywhere else in the world; not even in Ausbloodytralia, whose slang, clichés, and colloquialisms are very similar to ours.

It's used in: 'I've never laughed so much since...' and: 'I've never heard such language since...' and: 'I've never heard such a scream since...' or: I've never seen so much blood since...'
It can be used in situations where you want to make a comparison to an extreme happening or event.
So there you have it...and I'll betcha you'll use it...feel free to...we don't have a copyright on it.

Mea culpa, I did notice that you asked how many; but then got side-tracked...must be senile decay creeping in! Originally Posted by Rrumbler
