Boxing Day Races - spot the KBer

**janno** · 21st December 2007, 07:44

It seems like quite a few KBers are planning to go to the Boxing Day Races at Wanganui, including plenty that I've "met" online and would like to meet in person.

How am I going to recognise you all? The crazed, computer monitor shaped eyes?

The flaccid lower lip with the thin silver thread of drool emitting from the side of the mouth?

The TV remote control carried at all times with "Green/red rep button" painted on it?

Or perhaps you'll be the adults hurling small children out of the play area so you can hog the swings and then have fisticuffs over whose turn it is and who said what to whom . . .

Seriously, I'd like to meet you and if you are like me you won't be in possession of a KB item of clothing and don't feel like scrawling your site name on your tshirt.

Suggestions? (No, get a life is not the required response right now. Thank you.)

I'm the tall handsome one.

**Joni** · 21st December 2007, 07:50

I'm the short ugly one....

**janno** · 21st December 2007, 07:50

The tall, dark, handsome one with women fighting for his attention? The one who really should replace Daniel Craig as the next James Bond? Yes, you'll be easy to spot . . . will you let me take a photo of such bodily perfection?

Seriously chasps, I've read others saying "I was at such and such an event and knew you were going to be there but didn't know what you looked like" etc, seems a waste of an opportunity to put a name to the face.

Unless people like to hide of course (glances in paranoia over my shoulder . . .)

Best to just PM back and forth and exchange phone numbers, I've found.

Then again, people seem to be good at recognising me from my avatar.

I have been wanting to ask.... what is going on in your avatar? Are you dancing? Are you pulling up your fly? Are you having a convulsion?

:spudwhat:

This is mildly embarrassing, but... I have no idea.

You might try asking Kornholio; he was standing next to me in that photograph, looking very amused...

I didn't say dark, but Timothy Dolton is my double.
Do you mean there are real people behind the screen?

**Colapop** · 21st December 2007, 08:09

I am. Nuff said.

Look for the KB patch on a shirt, jacket, or sticker on a bike, walk up and ask them to take you to their leader.

What about a KB assembly point on site somewhere (nothing official needed although that KB flag would be a handy dandy thing!). Not in the pits because I figure that's busy enough now and them in there don;t want to be popping up to say hi all the time.

Maybe at one end of the BP forecourt? The end nearest that 90 degree corner (on the left hand side as you look at the BP from the street)?
