St.Ricky Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) Well. Surprise, Surprise. One poster is attending the Aberdeen game on a Freebie again. (Red Scarf at the ready). Had me thinking - what's the best freebie that you have received. (Keep it clean). One that comes to mind for me was being upgraded to First Class for a long haul flight. Another was being asked by an Audi Garage to drive a New Audi A8 around for a month to show it off. I know others can do better!

The best freebie I get is reading your comical imagination. Why thank you unkind sir. Your correction (noted and sectioned. No need to imagine for me. I have been very lucky in life (hard work helped). Perhaps you have led a life that you consider to have been mundane. Then again, it might have been full of incident and adventure. Do share sometime. Edited February 11, 2019 by St.Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum Gilhooley Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 I was once invited to the ambassadors reception in Hong Kong. I was whisked there in a private jet with two former Miss Worlds acting as air hostess who were there to attend to my every whim.I drank the finest champagne and had exotic foods lavished upon me. Once we arrived in HK ( that’s what us jet setters call it ) my stretch chauffeur driven gold plated Rolls Royce was on hand to speed me to the reception , the police of course stopped all of the traffic to ensure we got there in time , but it didn’t matter anyway because they would have waited for me because I’m so f**king important .After the reception , I returned home in a chariot pulled by a team of rainbow unicorns , stopping off along the way to collect expensive gifts from the Kings and Queens of a myriad of foreign countries plebs couldn’t begin to imagine .When I got home , I set up an account on a football fans forum to start a thousand pointless threads and bore the f**king pants off of anyone who believed the shite I was spouting .Oh wait , that wasn’t me after all. I’m getting mixed up . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Marriott Hotel in Rosebank, Johannesburg. Sadly, no Rolls Royce involved in the Hong Kong Reception. Champagne.. Not for me. I don't drink. Exotic food.. You've clearly never been to one of these.. Finger Food Only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tut, tut TP. She was a lovely young lady not just a beautiful woman. I had been invited to meet Miss Venezuela whom a friend of mine was mentoring whilst in South Africa.

The Marriott Was The base for the Miss World contestants in the city. They also went to Sun City and Port Elizabeth. Miss Scotland was there but I turned down the offer to meet her. She came from Dunblane and I lived in Doune, Just 5 miles away. I had met some of the girls in a previous competition when they were based at The Intercontinental in Sandton, JHB.
