STOLEN - Bertie Bat

[mrodoc]

Perhaps we should put out the rumour he carries Lyssa virus.

 

[mikem]

Better not spread such rumours:

http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2010/10/cave-closings/

Although given Bertie's size are you sure he's not a fruit bat:

A team of scientists have reported the successful isolation of genetically diverse Marburg viruses from a common species of African fruit bat (Egyptian fruit bat, Rousettus aegyptiacus). A paper published in the open-access science journal PLoS Pathogens provides new insight into the identity of the natural host of this deadly disease.

Infection with Marburg virus and the related Ebola virus can produce severe disease in people, with fever and bleeding. During outbreaks, as many as 90 percent of those infected have died.  The natural reservoir for Marburg virus, and its cousin Ebola virus, has been the subject of much speculation and scientific investigation.

On checking my emails this morning an update has come through:

"Comrade Moderator.

We are growing tired of the BEC's inability to meet our demands and their lack of a sense of humour. We require you to post this link.

I wonder if he is over wintering in the bottom of Charterhouse Cave
Apparently it's quite deep.  :-\

OK, so now its war. Remember, your enemies' enemy is your friend. When we find you you, we are going to shove you right up our amalgamated rectum.

 

[exsumper]

I hope you mean their rectum?, amalgamated or otherwise.

 

[menacer]

Aww I dont think all BEC take it too seriously.
I loved Stu's news report. Brilliant response.
Has anyone considered whether this is another Gerry Cottle publicity stunt ?? Wookey hole is big enoughg to store bertie...(although its not over the border so I guess not ) 

 

[graham]

Depends what you mean by border, Menacer. Has he been moved to a different MCRA registrar area, for instance?

 

[Local Bloke]

Agree that is a vague term

do they mean of mendipshire, e.g into BANES, sedgemoor or further a field into wiltshire or god forbid over the bridge

 

[Alkapton]

There do seem to be dodgey Welsh accents in the vids - Must be the WRA or at least sons of Owen Glyndor involvement

 

[menacer]

Welsh involvment would make it "Bertiegate"

 

[hades]

I hope you mean their rectum?, amalgamated or otherwise.

Come on chaps, get it right. To correctly quote the chorus of "The MCG Song" (take note Miketa):

"The BEC the Wessex and the Shepton,
Can crawl up their amalgamated rectum"

mmmmmmm? :-\

So that's where the sign went....


Beware the Ratter.

 

[miketa]

The B.E.C., the Wessex and the Shepton
Can crawl up their amalgamated rectum

.... but in this case I'll add the MCG as part of the rectum that they can be shoved up. (take note Hades, I know exactly what the song says)

 

[hades]

I think an enema might be called for! :yucky:

 

[mikem]

Maybe it's the Hades that have Bertie  8)

Over the Somerset/Dorset border, perhaps??

The CBLCC have now returned 'the sign'.

The rat is satisfied....

Had anyone actually seen (or rather, not seen) a missing sign. The MCG one hasn't been seen missing. Or is the background in the most recent video just some clever image manipulation?????

 

[Local Bloke]

This can easily be done, using Blue/ green screen behind the people and a photo added during production. A bit like star wars. The thing is, who has the knowledge , equipment, software etc to be able to do this.

SO,

1) Who has a camcorder ( everyone)
2) Who is into making films ( Narrows things down)
3) Who has the editing knowledge (narrows it down even more)
4) Who is short and fat (mmmm)
5) has a slightly taller side kick.
