Actually I do know what happened. It was before my time as a member but I found out perusing as a guest once how this member Bobhopesite staged his own passing away and attempted to "join" the forum as his own surviving son Bobhopesite junior. So this is his birthday which Snowthy has sarcastically drawn our attention to.
Ah well I hope he has a happy one wherever he is now
Barry ziffeled me but looking at what he posted I think it may be best to close this thread and forget the past
