    Rib Noodles was the media guy although that may not have been his official position, employees in small businesses tend to wear lots of hats. And he worked for us when we were more of a family business type operation rather than what we are now with all the corporate titles (I'm not claiming one is better than the other.) But he was employed by BFC directly I believe. Rob Knowles was his name. Don't claim to know him but did meet him a couple of times. The best bit about Rib Noodles was that you could actually wind him up and he'd react. Obviously, that reflects much worse on me than him as why would a grown adult be calling someone Rib Noodles and trying to get him to react.

    I always thought Rob Knowles was The Full Ponty.

    He once came out on a BBS do, I think. I've certainly met him. Fair play to him.

    I remember him being nicknamed it on here.

    But now Mark Stokes has been mentioned, I'm not sure which person ST is actually referring to now tbh.

    Can't say I've ever met either of them, so I can only go with what's on here.

    They probably are like anyone. Some folk like them some folk don't. And all manor in between. One persons experience isn't the same as another.

    I'm sure I would have my opinion had I met them or even interacted with them somehow.

    No malice intended on my part anyway, referencing him as Rib, it was the first thought that cam into mind.

    This bbs leaves memories and impressions far more than I gave it credit for lol.
