What happened to this chap?
Was a prolific poster with some incredible tales.
Not heard of for ages on these forums.

He might be off on an extra long camping trip in that massive tent of his, with 30 pints of milk smile

Time to hold our hands up.

A few of us longer term Phers created Welshbeef years ago. A shared account we would log into, to try and provoke outrage. Perhaps one of the first examples of the "hive mind".

But things got so crazy in the last few years that old Welshie seemed to have run its course, as more and more loons joined, to rant about people renting cars; EVs; vaccines and nappy-wearers; and the WEF putting in plans for us to own nothing and be happy. So retirement for WB beckoned.

Obviously, Welshie had a retirement pot in excess of £10m thanks to some savvy investing by the unassuming Berkshire finance director. He now enjoys regular walks in the fields surrounding Reading, finally at peace - and planning his next hollibobs.


Occasionally, when the moon is full, you may have a passing glance at Ebay and notice a rogue last minute bidder on a Porsche 944.
Gone, but not forgotten.

Just the other week I was thinking I’ve not seen the usual incoherent babble on almost every thread I read.

Then it hit me. He’s gone.

His last post was coherent so he left the Mods no option.

I genuinely wish he was still posting, he brightened up many a dull thread.

Wow, that's really passed me by. Last contribution July by his profile stats. For an FD he did seem to have a few kangaroos missing from the top paddock but he was entertaining nonetheless.

Breadvan self imposed his exile.

I guess, if enough people report a poster, they are on the mod radar and eventually get banned.

Partly true. It started that way but then the account became sentient and started posting stuff all by itself.

Some say that Welshbeef is really GPT3, all I know is that he is not the Stig.

Before your time, yet you're aware of it.
