George needs to haunt the person that made that.

That wax head of George doesn’t look like George at all; looks like Seals and Croft or something…

Can’t you just get it off Amazon? 

Holy fudge, the George head is scary! Who would pay that much for that?!

Looks like 2 people have pulled each end to elongate the face.

Someone paid £140 for that George head and the condition is only “acceptable”. Proof that if you shove the name “Beatles” on a product, no matter how shit, someone will buy it. 

Imagine opening your birthday or Christmas present and finding that was the gift instead of the deluxe Tune-In or a cd box set!! And you have to act all grateful to the folks who bought you such a monstrosity.

If I got that as a gift I would put it back on ebay.

But I’m not sure I’ve seen a day since she joined us when she hasn’t been here (apart from a holiday she interrupted a couple of times to check in). You predate me, and I’m approaching 1600. She is quick, but she gets involved in lots of quick conversations. When I logged in the other day, I noticed one thread she interacts with a lot, had 70+ posts in three days. Between 3 or 4 people! Nothing wrong with that. It’s what a forum is about.

I’m not sure if you read any of my story of how I stumbled into the Beatles. Since May 26, 2013, I have not been able to contain my enthusiasm. Ebullient. Exuberant. Euphoric. Exultant. Ecstatic. The folks in here have all these wonderful conversations about my new passion. I just hope I have contributed some joy to their lives in return for the joy they have brought me.

Often about 1 Beatle and their plans for him. a-hard-days-night-paul-7

 

It’s good to have the forum active with fun discussions, go on some other Beatle forums and they are half dead with 2 or 3 posts a day at times! Nothing wrong with that, just nice to be somewhere enjoyable and lively and talk Beatles.
