Fantasists
Eddie Spunkbubble says: I used to know a sad case who fancied himself as a bit of a 007 and bragged that he always carried a loaded 9mm pistol in his attache case "just in case". Overheard by an off-duty copper, he was asked to make good on his claim. A packed lunch, red face and a stern warning "not to act the twat" and he never did it again. Tell us of Walter Mitty types.

Oh, are we doing EdsMeds again?
Seriously, Are the QOTW MODs fantasising that we haven't done this question many, MANY times before?

Would I be asking if I did?
I only came back to /qotw via AB's archive, and that name isn't ringing any bells.

He used to post on here as EdsMeds and a couple of aliases and send creepy GAZes to daves. In addition to being a doctor, an army major AND a fighter pilot he made a solo journey to the North Pole for charidee dontchaknow.
There used to be a few more news story links about him but they seem to have vanished. Guess someone's already taking advantage of this "Right to be forgotten" law.

I do recognise the name Craig Colclough, so I must have seen those links before.
Did he get banned, then?

I never met her myself, but I know a forecaster that worked with her for a while.
And according to her, she was pretty fucking thick.

Although, that being said, the same forecaster was friends with this one:

So she's not too bright herself.

Yeah, only just noticed the extra i in there. Edited now.
Then again, for all we know EdsMeds may well have been a successful Dio impersonator too.
