Achievements

[paolo]

I'll start by saying none on my part, which made me wonder what it deels like to have achieved something.

What would it feel like if you'd written a song that affected people, or brought people together?

How would you feel if you had invented something that many folks use, even if they don't know who invented it.

What would it feel like running in the lympics (I guess 2000 and older when it still counted) or the Dream Mile....or completing the Paris Dakar

Or what would it feel like saving a stanger's life?

Or playing football in front of a full crowd?

What achievements, big or small have people here done? Or maybe a relative or someone you know.

Tennisman has written a book.

That's a pretty good achievement, and clearly a reflection of the energy you give

I once sent Vinnie Jones off for elbowing a postman in the jaw.

Reffed games at Fratton Park, Portsmouth v Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas, Arsenal and Real Sociedad pre seasons.

You put historical and sometimes automotive art back into the world, that is something.

If in life you’ve embodied Rudyard Kipling’s poem 'If—,' you know you've achieved a lot. You’ve done alright.

Big P. You are the man who crawled through 500 yards of shit and came out clean the other end. And in a few short days, the world will see a new king crowned.

An inter-departent university game isn't in the same league but;
I can claim to have penalised Bill Slater and given the penalty. A decision he clearly didn't agree with but never said a word.

Ah, the days when footballers weren't prima donna's and cry babies. Never to return unfortunately.

Big P shoo-in for POTY. Unless of course, dark forces intervene...

Not had a ban on the forum, now, that IS an achievement
