MY UFOING 48TH BIRTHDAY

Brian Serridge
Hello Everyone,

It's my 48th birthday today and I feel it (48 I mean!).
Not so bad really. When I reach my 50th I might just drown myself in some green liquid. Right now I'm gonna drown myself in Southern Comfort!!

All The Best,

BRIAN

You know the 48 Crash come like a lightning flash

It's a silk sash bash

The 48 Crash



Crash Crash 48 Crash

Crash Crash 48 Crash



Congrats both of you - mine was 2 years ago



Funny how that song didn't mean so much when I was 13, but by the time I was
48 - I understood it (although, thankfully, one aspect of the song never
eventuated)

Green liquid....

Absinthe? or something stronger? Absinthe is green isn't it? Perhaps that'swhat the aliens were breathing.. :-)
Or perhaps you were thinking of Fairy liquid, Brian.
I myself am approaching 50, from the wrong side though.. Feeling 48 is a little worrying though. I only feel 24!

Hi :)

I reckon he means a tot of creme de monte...

Happy Birthday, Brian!

I still have the indignity of a half-century bash in a few years time...

It can't be a coincidence all us UFO'ists are about the same age...

Take care all... Griff (Griff grabs his stick, steadies himself slowly to his feet, ambles off in search of some cocoa... )

Yes, it means that UFO was most successful with 10-year olds in
1970-72.

Yes, there is certainly another "group" of UFO fans who are older than 48.
I remember the Fanderson convention in 2000 when I met Ed Bishop, and
he was surprised at how young I was (I'm also turning 48 this year).
I guess he was used to the initial wave of fans who were probably
10+ years older.

If you can compare it to a certain other franchise, it hits its stride and gained viewership in reruns. Who says the same cant be said about UFO??

Amazing!

Me: 48 in December. Hello, fellow UFOists & time travelers, of all eras!

P.S. Bizarrely, I believe Mr Ed Bishop made a cameo in my dreams last night.
Probably because we recently saw the movie Pets. Ha!

I guess I was the rarity: I was a 17-year-old girl when UFO came
to NE Ohio in 1972. It had been 6 years since Star Trek and would
be 5 years until Star Wars, so I was hungry for a new science-
fiction show.

I'm 55 and feeling every year and bump lately. Saw UFO in WPB Florida  
in 1972 or 1973...it was the first Anderson series I had seen on TV  
since Stingray in Ohio in the mid 1960's...I wish they had made  
more! I love all of Gerry's shows and how they fed my imagination.

I remember one guy in High School (when it premiered) that made fun  
of UFO and ridiculed me for liking it. I guess it made me stronger! I  
also remember he mad fun of MASH and said it'd never last past one  
season...hehehe!

Re: MY UFOING 48TH BIRTHDAY

Heck, I'm feeling old now. Possibly the oldest of you all!

I'll reach the wonderful age of 57 shortly... but I still only feel
about 24 (or 96 on a bad day!)

Anyone out there older than me? Please?? [:(]

At 39, i guess that makes me one of the 'babies' in this group!
Oh and Marc, if you think that UFO had a big effect on the 10 year-olds watching it; I can tell you the show made an almighty impression on little ol'4 year-old me, being the first ever TV series i remember watching.

Re: MY UFOING 48TH BIRTHDAY

I'm pretty sure that there are loads of older UFO fans out there, who are disuaded from 'coming out' by fact of their age! I get enough 'patronising' comments from friends and family about the fact that I enjoy reading, writing and drawing UFO realted things... when I should be ... 'looking after the grandchildren' etc! It's not seen as 'normal' to be interested ( or should that be 'obsessed'!) with a TV programme that is 40 years old. (Philistines!)
Also.. let's be honest, for all those of my age who are computer literate, I know more people who never use the internet (my sister for one!) and therefore don't know that sites like this and fan sites in general even exist.
I didn't, until last year!! (shame on me!)But I'm making up for lost time now!

I was only 6 when I first saw UFO back in 1972. The biggest memory I have of that time was when I argued with the baby-sitter on what to watch on tv. . . I wanted UFO and she wanted to watch the Wonderful World of Disney! (Ilost the battle because she was bigger.)

OMG!  That didn't happen every week, did it?  I would assume it was just the one week, otherwise you probably would have lobbied for a new sitter.  I know I would have.  Or freaked out at the very least.
