...and finally (drum roll)...

The 2008 Strawberry Fields Boardie of the Year


is...

Gold Strawberry: bluemeanie (10 votes)

followed by

Silver Strawberry: Jacaranda (8 votes)

Bronze Strawberry (Honourable Mentions): JeffLynnesBeard (5), Kit_Kat (4), MaccasGirl (3), theonlyfab4fan (2)

...and that bring us to the end of the awards ceremony. Join us next year for the 2009 Strawberry Fields awards and enjoy the after-show party! :clap:
I am more than happy to lose this to Jayne, who deserves this award for her mighty efforts on everyone's behalf who came to Liverpool.

I am touched though that I came in so close.

Thank you to everyone for my Newsgetter award (shared with the lovely Jayne) and especially for the Best overall contributor. Though these awards are just for fun, I am still honored that you thought of me, and also thank you for all the honorable mentions.

I would do the Snoopy dance on winning the biggest John fan, but this was a foregone conclusion wasn't it Ms. Evil? :P :peace:

Congratulations to all the winners, nominees and to everyone who voted.

I am standing here in my blue slinky dress and the high heels that hurt, waiting for the other award acceptance speeches and any special mystery guests.

Hello? BFM?

Hullo me little luvverlies!

It's your uncle Ringo here. Peace and Love, Peace and Love!

I know you're all wondering what's had me so busy since Oct 20. Well, I can finally reveal that it's taken me all that time to get me costume ready for the party. Do you like it? Elton thought he was so special having to be delivered in the back of a lorry. Mine's so big I had to arrive via me own privately chartered Antonov. And the only think I have to say about that is It don't come easy. I've got headdresses on me headdresses man!

Big congratulations to all the award winners. I'm up for a Grammy meself you know.
Hey Britney, I'd rather be the least talented Beatle than the most talented Spears.

Really sorry I couldn't come and see you all in Liverpool, but as you all know from experience now, the place is a right sh*thole. But come to me stately country home some time and I'll play you me new song. It's all about peace and love and how it don't come easy. I can fit you in between 2 and 2:15.

But for now, eat drink and be merry. Or Gary. Autographs for everyone! Peace and Love! Peace and Love! :peace: :peace: :peace:

Ringo, what a delight to see you here at the party. :hug: :hug:

However I have a bone to pick with you before you drink all the free champagne and eat all those veggie hot dog thingies in a blanket.

As benefits my position of most unrecognized Ringo fan on the board, I have every decade or so sent you items to autograph including: the album Sentimental Journey, a donut-shaped fireplace, a 6’ by 9’ poster of you from your rousing movie “Caveman,” and my blankie named Mr. Dinkums. I have not received any of these items back and have been waiting patiently (and in the case of Mr. Dinkums, I have to remind you that it’s been 44 years).

Since your announcement that you are discontinuing the practice of autographing personal items, I have been in a fit of despair and rarely leave the area underneath my computer desk (except to eat, use the euphemism and on rare occasions, take my private jet to Monte Carlo for a stint at the baccarat table).

What say you? Are you a man of decency and integrity who will finally release Mr. Dinkums from hostage? Or should I just continue my life of gloom under this piece of cheap, albeit cheery, fiberboard?

Just when Ringo arrives to upstage Barry (which use to not be such a difficult thing to do, but Ringo is now a grouch and no fun, so Barry is looking better, well at least more festive with all that champagne) I have to go to work. Come to think of it, Barry's not looking too bad, but of course we haven't seen him in swimwear like Paul who was spotted in Mexico recently (yikes). But having mentioned that, I'm thinking we just might see Barry's little manilow soon enough!

Boardie With The Best Signature(s)

Gold Strawberry: Rose (10 votes)

The "Oscar" For Grouchiness

Bronze Strawberry (Honourable Mentions): Bill, Rose, modgirl1964 & Anti-Dotty (all 2 votes)



Well...thanks to everyone :grouphug: who voted for me...It's always fun to see how others 'see' you...but then again, sometimes you would rather not be seen (meaning, I really have to work on the Most Mysterious Boardie next year!) B)
Here I take the Most Honest (with Doris, of course) away from Dani (hehe) :rofl: ...but I also get a couple of votes for Grouchiness...I can't help but think there is a connection there somewhere. :ponder:
As for Best Signature :boogie: (2 years in a row!! Advertising DOES pay!) I really can take no credit. I just happen to have one of the sexiest, hottest, most incredible pictures of Paul McCartney EVER taken. What more can I say? Well, obviously I always have something more to say...being the honest, grouchy, mysterious Rose that I am. Guess you just have to take the GOOD with the BAD!

No, I don't know what else you can do to prove you're the biggest Paul fan. You have the tattoos, you met him three times, you've travelled to Liverpool, Paris and Quebec...

Ok ok....I don't have the tattoos but hey, I got down on my face and kissed the original floor of Paul's childhood home on Forthlin Rd...right in front of Peter and Jayne! :D

Guess it wasn't enough to even get one vote...LOL...it's all good! There are those more deserving than moi! B)

Well Hullo Jacaranda! Peace and love to you. You can pick my bone any time darlin'.

As anyone who watches the Simpsons knows, I am roughly 26 years behind in me correspondence. While I've cought up a little bit recently, I'm not geting any younger. As Larry King keeps reminding everyone, I'm 68 now and if it keeps going on like this, I'll still be signing stuff when I'm in the nursing home.

I must confess to no longer being in possession of your fireplace. I remember thinking at the time that that donut was rather hard. But I assure you that Mr Dinkums has had the finest of care. It's just that I'd lost your address and I don't remember it coming from anyone called Jacaranda. How can I be sure you are Mr Dinkums' rightful owner?

But never mind all that. I've got a euphemism you can use if you want to.

Andy?

Is Jeff Lynne's Beard named Andy now?
He must have changed his name. Or his beard. We always called him Robert. Bob the Beard we used to call him.

Jeff would usually take his beard off in the studio and hang it on a mic stand. Except when we were recording the drums, then he would drape it over the snare to dampen it.
Now you know how he gets that sound.

I'm not bothered because I know that Jeff has a long history of talking through his beard.
And I have plenty of experience in hitting it with sticks.

Speaking of sticks, did someone mention hot dogs? I could really go for a hot dog on a stick right now.

Ringo my dear, I am now handing you, at the end of this ten-foot pole, my name, address, but not my hotel room number or room key, because though I love you with the most glorious of loves, we are both married and you happen to be old enough to be my dad. I am using the pole not because of any germaphobic tendencies but due to what we true fans tenderly call "the incident" in which someone of the female persuasion happened to touch you inciting rather, uh, testy although legally justifiable behavior on your part.

So here is my "real" info and the place to return Mr. Dinkums. I am saddened that you ate the fireplace but where is my album and the glorious Caveman poster? Did you eat those as well? If so, color me amazed not only at your amazing sense of humor, health and vitality, but your outstanding digestive system.

Speaking of digesting, if you interested in hot dogs, just ask BFM. I'm sure he knows all about them and their location.

Hey Ringo,

You're sounding like you're not the grouch I made you out to be. Of course, you have to make good on Jacaranda's Mr. Dimples or Dunkinson (something like that) and her other items.

Speaking of not getting items back, your friend Sheila E "stole" my daughter's shoes a few years back at your concert in Saratoga, California. At the time we didn't mind because Sheila's shoe had broken and she came to my daughter begging to wear her brand new shoes. Of course this left my daughter shoeless at an outdoor venue, but we were happy to oblige because we were supposed to meet YOU and Shelia of course after the show and to get my daughter's shoes back. But guess what? YOU and YOUR plane had to leave by a certain time and YOU didn't think it necessary to stick around!!

I get the feeling you and the company you keep make a habit of stealing!

Peace and love, my ass! More like Steal and Run!!

Hey Ringo,

There is a nasty rumor going around that you really can play drums and that Paul wasn't the one doing all of those drum takes during the Beatles' studio sessions. What say you?

Please, let's leave my manilow out of this. I (he) am (is) in tip top condition. I believe next year it will be one of the prizes to boardie of the year. And i don't appreciate that crabass Ringo trying to upstage the 'one and only'. my drumstick is bigger than yours!
Dear Barry,

I have always thought that you were bigger than the Beatles, even including Ringo, and I always felt this was your most inspired performance. You are a f*ckin artiste!

why is crabass RINGO still here? (pout). it's ok, it served it's purpose for a bit. sometimes it's fun to liven this place up with fantasy but i guess everyone prefers talking about missing children, bombs in Gaza, The W man, abuse, meat vs. veggies, blah blah blah. i'm just teasing really, just wanted to make us all laugh and have fun, relieves the stress, but ..... POOF .... back to reality. i'm going back to my island! ;)

Hey Ringo,

There is a nasty rumor going around that you really can play drums and that Paul wasn't the one doing all of those drum takes during the Beatles' studio sessions. What say you?

Love Lapis, with the kindest of hearts. Peace and love.
Hullo LapisLee,

As you all know, I wanna be Santa Claus. And if I were, I would be sure to bring you an original idea.

Jacaranda, thank you for the info. I'll be sure to keep it private and use the information to return your fair dinkum.

BeatleBarb, what can I say? You know what drummers are like. And Colin Hay can tell you all about Sheilas.

Temptresss, sorry for being such a Bad Boy crashing the party and all.
Since it looks like I'm not wanted around here, I guess it's time to hope back on me learjet and fly out to somewhere sunny and warm.

peaceandlovepeaceandlove :peace: :peace:

Yeah, I just checked it out a few minutes ago. I thought it was about the TV show, but I saw Andy's explanation and completely understand his decision.

Honestly? It's not a big deal. I was seriously wondering if I missed something, or was indeed on the wrong thread. I blame myself for being lazy and not going back and reading previous posts.
Besides the fact...its not up to me who posts what...where.
It's all good. :sweet:

Also, why should it matter. beings Linda was part of those who don't like fantasy charters. because, she don't know who they are.

Dude, I can't believe I missed the party. One minute I was gallantly accepting my Golden Strawberry for Best Poet, and the next I was a sordid little heap in a Ladies Room somewhere. On the bright side, I think I may have seen George Michael hanging around.

It's taken me a week to get back here. That musta been some kickass Champagne.
