great joy in our home this morning .

thank you gentlemen , norn got mail , going to head to fairyhouse to unwind for a few hours , mother and daughter 8lb 11ozs are doing well thank god.

Good news workrider. Get the daughter to call her Angel as a middle name. Appropriate in many ways as your Dad was looking down looking after the two of them.

nice to hear. went through summit iwith my sister at the start of the year. best wishes to mother and child. Norn any chance of the e mail?? no worries if ya cant

happy days my friend.. :)

great news workrider! Its good to hear.

great news

Great news WR. Puts things into perspective alright.

I'll enjoy this mouthwatering day of Rugby and Racing even more.

congrats workrider - have you bought the green and white scarf yet.

Congrats. Wish you wel.

all's well that ends well

congrats and look after yourselves

wonderful news workrider, congrats.
:)

good stuff :)

Fantastic news, I have mailed you, cheers.

Great stuff mate, thanks for sharing this with us. Can hardly even imagine what you must have been through.

It's good to be reminded that there are things alot more important when knee deep in sporting statistics.

Dan Chipowski said he wasnt your biggest fan workrider,i'd go a step further than that.I think you are a pure dope and a tossser with it.Now i do not wish your daughter or child any ill fortune,how could i,i dont even know either.Nor for that matter do i wish yourself any harm.After all all i can do is gauge your character from your stupid posts.
The thing that has me flummuxed is that 99 % of your cyberfriends dont know who you are,they dont know for a fact that you even have a daughter yet here they are giving you their best wishes.This is almost like one of those RIP threads where these**s are posting about somebody who died whom they never knew or never met.Offerings of good wishes or condolences should surely be kept within a circle of people who know each other and finally a public forum with a pseudo username is no place to make public a situation like this

galway59

I am embarrassed to be living in the same county as you.

He's had some good news, decided to share it and therefore disperse his relief, and you slate him?

He has a loving family around him, maybe that's why you're jealous; you no-name no-friend khunt.

galway59 28 Nov 17:45

I hate those RIP threads myself, but i think the guy does know some of the people through horses and dogs on this thread,

Im not jealous of this person after all i dont know anything about him or her or who they are or where they come from.All i can say with certainty is that the posts that come under the workrider banner are usually trash.If i genuinely had a daughter in this situation would i really be tempted to rush to the keyboard to tell my cybermates first thing in the morning.One thing that is certain that most of the people who replied to the initial post do not know**rider whatsoever.They cannot say whether he has a daughter or not,they cannot say for certain whether he is 18 or 80,whether he is male or maybe it is even a she.Viva Las vegas,just because my username suggests so how do you know im from Galway,maybe im from somewhere else completely.

glad to hear the good news WR.
worrying times for your family.

ignore the pr1cks on the thread

Go plant yourself in the flood and see if you can grow up a little bit.

Badgers back,if the feller ignores all the priccks on this thread all he should be reading is my posts.

Does anyone think this story is a bit Irish.Now im not much of a medical man but this must go down in history as one of the swiftest recoverys in living memory.Last night his daughter was at deaths door,yet this morning they get the call that everything is ok from none other than his daughter.So she has a life threatening operation on a Friday night and is making phone calls first pop Saturday.

For a story that you say is probably not real and from someone or something that you have no time for and is only out in cyberspace anyway you seem to have an unhealthy obsession with it.

Nothing of any interest in your real world then?

well done workrider i know what u ahve been through
My sister lost a stillborn daughter in june and believe me the fallout is a very deep hole
Best of luck workrider and good health to all your family

Grow a brain you muppet. This is what he said:

workrider 28 Nov 09:23
yesterday i thought i was going to lose my daughter in child birth ,she was having her first child and things went a bit wrong after the birth and she had to be operated on a 2nd time , all night long we were waiting on that dreaded call .this morning the call was from my daughter she'd pulled through thank god .....


galway59:

Maybe he has two daughters?

Now clear off you irritating bowsie

Wasnt going to respond Galway but Jesus man, how you never had anyone close to you sick? Or in hospital? Things change in a matter of minutes. Docs told me and my family my Grandad would pass away when he ordered them to take him off life support after a heart op (long story).. he got through it and everything changed in a matter of hours. Hes back home now and I appreciate more every time I get to sit down, have a cup of tea and a chat with him.

Bottom line is no matter whether you know the person or not, weve all been there or will be there at some stage in our lifes, and its nice to see things go someones way and they pull through.

Great news workrider and good luck to her, you and the rest of the family.

grand workrider get you a beer in shelbourne tonight if you introduce yerself, i'll be where paddy used to mark his card

Great news.
You will have a great xmas now.

Why do you feel it necessary to post on the thread at all?

If you don't like workrider then just ignore his threads - it's not difficult.

ur right i should be like u and ignore..well done

Good news workrider, hope your girl returns to full health asap.

:-)

Easy to see why you are allowed to post on Horse racing.

You really are an Inadequate individual in need of specialist help.

Workrider, great news mate, This is my last post on this forum, I would not bother with the "bobbycalas" of this world at a meeting or in a Betting shop, so have no intention of looking at the dirge they post on here any longer.

Will mail you soon for for a catch up.

mother and child arrived home both healthy and happy thank god .1 st time i've seen this child and i have to say her beauty and perfection brought a smile to my face , it really is great been a grandad , once again from the bottom of my heart a great big thank you to one and all .

happy days all round:)

LESS TRIPS RACIN FOR YOU GRANDAD AS YOU WILL GET PLENTY BABY SITTING ENJOY (MAIL SENT)

great news WR

boxingthefox

You should keep posting bud; it's the normal, regular posters that keep this place going. We don't wanna end up like the football forum :-(

PS Fantastic news WR, delighted for you.

having lost 4.1/2. pts of blood she is really picking up

That really is incredible. I hope you know how lucky you are.

If your daughter lived in any other time she would have died!
Hell even if she lived in any other country except about 20 she would have died!
Talk about perspective, economic crisis my hole!

workrider
I just read all the above thread (I don't log in often).
Congratulations on the recovery and best wishes to you, your daughter, and the leanbh. Happy Christmas.

thanks everyone i really mean that , my daughter just text me ,says my grandaughter snores just like her grandad.:) ain't life wonderful :)

Great thread in the end workrider.

:-)

Very much a case of "alls well that ends well" wr. :D

To you even have a daughter?

So many of your tales seem to be in your head

Why would someone post this on a gambling forum? Seriously!
Was this before we had Facebook?

I'm starting to see your OTHER indentity , never noticed you bring up anything from this far back before , though OZY is quite good at it , get my drift , you're letting it slip mate ..

I'm glad he brought it up, its without doubt the funniest thread i've read in ages. Theres no doubt its almost on a par with the imaginary cancer thread.
I wonder could anyone get that thread up again, thats the one that tops the lot.

The Gathering I see , Ozy calling in the favours ......

No wonks, it is very funny. Im not saying anything other than that about it.

I had the pleasure of meeting wr..at the races,..besides being a lovely man..his family are very precious to him(as im sure family are to us all)he expresses himself in different ways, some would not choose to post whats been a traumatic time in his family..others would..but we are all different,but one thing I can say..the man is one of the most genuine and nice men ive had the pleasure to meet..hope your ok wr..my best to you and yours mate.

ill vouch for all tony has said.ive also meet wr.as nice and as genuine man you   would hope to meet.a bit of respect wouldnt go amiss here lads

Don't worry lads I was half expecting it , thanks for the kind words Tony, Kavvie , fact is i rattled OZYS cage and hes losing it . Chelt has always been on his side , in fact I'd say hes almost his DOUBLE if you get my meaning...

Agree with what Tony and Kavvie have said about Workrider,you wouldn't meet a nicer fella,

Golden Horn wouldn't beat Treve if he started now,No matter what ground,I literally laughed out loud when i heard GH owner on ATR this evening sating his horse would beat Treve "easily" on good ground,The man must be on Drugs if he really believes that.Im not one for backing odds on shots but i genuinely believe Treve is literally buying money,The Horse is an absolute freak,I mean if her turn of foot and how she travels in her races doesn't excite ye then your in the wrong game,I think she's even better than Zarkava and we all know how good she was.just a matter of how far she win's imo and i cannot wait to see her unleash that trademark blistering turn of foot at the 2 F marker.

Love.  Post of the year .....Laugh. What sort of person could write such complete and utter bollux ?

IT seem digging up the past post C.R.[5years ago] has badly backfired on you ,

Happy to hear of your news regards your family workrider, you never know what's round the corner !

Thanks Pbk , that young girl now has a 2yo brother to keep her on her toes , only those without family would fail to see a Fathers joy on hearing his Daughter was out of danger , so they are more to be pitied than laughed at.

Dear lord his paranoia knows now bounds, funny all the same,
Frank stick to painting the house for the Mrs

^^

this eegit gave out about bumping old threads a while back and now he does the same thing himself. what kind of twisted little fecker would sneer at a personal matter such as this??

there are some real nasty pieces of work on this site and cheltenhamroar is a sad little follower, trying to please others..

Freddie go to bed ye little creep

seriously, grow up ya little twerp. stop trying to imitate others.

Its happened yet again.

A post is brought back up to goad and sneer at another poster but it backfires spectacularly.
This thread shows how popular Workrider is both here and in Britain,poster after poster coming on with kind words with one dissenter.

Bobbybocala Robo,Mincer,Paulie Walnuts are all the one.

I'm astounded at Cheltenham Roar,normally a great poster with a decent take on racing,a poster responsible for one of the most noble acts on here,I'm assuming this is an aberration.

That little girl is rising 6 now and I'm sure she is a delight,she is lucky to have such a loving family around her.
Workrider makes a great point,when we are cursing our luck ver the horses we are unaware how lucky we actually are.

Freddiek 00.11 "They are some real nasty pieces of work on this site".
So true,what a difference to 6 years ago where most are plainly decent people.

Dan would you ever go away and lie down ya fukkin clown.
Theres nobody wishing anybodys daughter harm or anything like that, but the fact that somebody has posted such a private matter on this forum is truly laughable. It has no place whatsoever on here, and its the same person putting it up time and time again.
And you can go and fukk yerself with your idyllic lifestyle and your popular horses pisss, wonky is so popular with you that you blanked the poor fella down in Thurles that day he was looking for you everywhere. Plenty laugh at wonky, but you are the one continously laughing at him behind his back.

Mincer , laugh away lad ,sure life is real for some ,others live in a bubble with nothing or no one to care about them .

I have to say why anyone would take time out to bring up something from so long ago is beyond me..but maybe my mentality is different to others..

The most striking thing about this thread is the number of people in 2009 who posted on the first page but who, for whatever reason(s), no longer post on the Irish Forum (and I'm allowing for multiple user names).

thats the one thing that struck me reb.it was a friendlier less confrontational place them times.now its sneer ridicule and obsess .a bullys dream to be honest.imagine if snaps next nap for whatever reason finished last.they will come out of the woodwork in double quick to sneer.no wonder people by and large dont put up their opinions anymore.any  opinions/info/tipping i do is by pm or text to a few i know and respect as decent people..

ah come on now kavvie, I know you're snap's mate but he has done exactly the same in the past so has to expect some back

You's are all very easily upset, don't let an anonymous forum get to yiz lads.
Drop a bomb or two and look what happens, I purposely wound workrider up cause as sure as night follows day I knew he'd bring up the "treve" subject

No you didn't , you forgot your cover . Pity you didn't hold the moral high ground re bringing back threads, just showing your higher self I presume or your precived higher self...

Just showing how popular you are,I'd only love to be so popular on an anonymous forum, maybe one day eh

chelt your missing the point..hes popular because hes a decent honorable guy.and the anomnity bit is wrong also.hes met loads of the people who are on here(those he chose to meet) and their opinions havent changed because of meeting him.aslo id say snap was only giving back a bit of what he was after getting and who would blame him?

Kaavie your right with everything you have just said,your better of just ignoring an idiot like him,how sad is he to spend time digging up a thread from years ago?

Why in the name of God would you want to meet anyone off here? Seriously, unless you are lonely and have no friends then fair enough, but it's just bizarre why anyone would wanna meet someone off this. But whatever floats your boat

chelt your actually funny?are you socially inept?  why on earth would i not meet people off here??liked minded people interested in the same thing  horses?  gambling ?sport?   sharing tips?  i got lots of friends of which a large majority are into sports and we have a lot in common as a result   i dont wanna meet farming/retail/fashion/deep sea diving/pot holing/gardening etc etc  people because ive no interest in them subjects.. sport and gambling  is my passion.this place is rich with like minded individuals..!!

Kavvie, That will have gone over his head .

Socially inept because I choose not to meet strangers on an anonymous forum? Ok

You are making a bigger gobshyte of yourself by the minute Chelt , so like minded people should remain anonymous ,whatever next ,maybe nobody should go to a match in case they meet like minded people there...

socially inept because of what your saying !!
