I need your help tomorrow.

I am not sure if I'll call, but I will definitely send him a text message. Like Pitbull said, perhaps I could send him something through Netflorist. If you PM me the details, I will arrange something.

 

[Surv0]

Great idea..

 

[Ho3n3r]

Plot twist, its some random okes number.

Whackhead playing Telephone Roulette but with a new twist - he doesn't know who's being called, but no idea who's actually calling either.

It'd totally freak me out if a bunch of strangers called me to wish me happy birthday. And even if it didn't, I couldn't care less if they did, because they're not important to me - it wouldn't mean anything.

OP, are you a sadist?

Have you been to an old age home? The lonely people love any chance to speak to someone that'll listen for a bit.

 

[airborne]

Great thread, thanks op for posting something genuinely kind hearted and hope the old guy has a blast tomorrow, he'll love the attention, don't we all!

 

[HecticZA]

I will call later today. Not sure he would appreciate a call this time of the morning.

 

[Bighit]

Okay, I phoned, it's legit, the gentleman seemed genuinely happy about the phone call. Just be prepared for the "who are you" question.

 

[HecticZA]

Yeah, also phoned this morning.

 

[Mortymoose]

Funny how you can still hear the accent in his voice after all those years .

To everyone who made the effort. A heartfelt THANK YOU. I think its the only time caps is permitted on the internet.

All of you made it a very very special day for Mr Hammand.
He even got a call from Swakopmund and spoke German. It was amazing.

I have now removed his number from my first post. It has come and gone and it was amazing. He appreciated each and every call.
You guys and girls are wonderful and never ever forget that.


P.S. I sent a pm to backstreetboy on the first reply. Not sure if he will respond. Can one of the mods please remove Mr Hammand's number from the quote. Thanks

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Great stuff. Glad to hear he appreciated it.

The call from Swakopmund would be the local Moose representing.

 

[maumau]

Must've been Morty from Swakopmund.

Edit: Orbital beat me to it.

 

[Jings]

What an amazing, feelgood thread this turned out to be. Thanks to pretty amazing people surprise-wishing an old gentleman on his birthday.

Think he meant Oranjemund , and yes I did try and speak a few words of German to him........

 

[bokdrol]

Sorry I missed this. What a lovely thing to do. Bless you.
