Made some friends off that board, was invited to a wedding and to several birthday bashes, one in Sweden. Had one male stay at my house for a couple of nights when, unknown to me, my daughter kept driving past in case I was being buried under the patio. Sadly attended another's funeral and regretfully fell out with another. BTW Gaz Xmas greetings to Tony's fans popped up in my newsfeed on Fb so I wished him greetings in reply on behalf of us all.

Looking at those names brings back some classic memories. I remember townsvillequo having those arguments about a FF reunion with Teleboogie and fisherman(who were devout Quo lite fans). Well, the day the reunion was officially announced, I’m sure Tele and the fish would’ve blown blood vessels at the shock announcement especially to see Townsville having the last laugh!!😂 Another member was that Iveparfitt(?) having daily arguments with just everyone on the board especially Davyno😂👏🏻👏🏻. How about that time when Ive was supposed to meet wolfman for that punch up at some Quo tribute band gig.. wolfman didn’t show up.😳😂 How about that 15 page, 2 week long argument/debate Davyno had about the moon landing with that board member….oh it was me. 😎 Great times. I was late to join, think it was 2007 when I joined after reading for a couple of years, before then, I didn't know it even existed or I would have been on sooner, but yeah to see some of these old names from that board does reignite some memories. I was certainly put it my place a few times early on, you had to have your wits about you for sure, better make sure you owned or had at least heard the Quo album or you're not coming in. It was certainly, what shall we say, sharp and abrasive here and there, but also very interesting at the same time. I'd forgot a little about some of those debates about old v new Quo from those you mention, many of us stuck in the middle who liked or could appreciate both sides. Some of the stuff was hilarious to read through sometimes though. Regards Teleboogie, I'm sure it was him, I take it was a him, who I purchased dvds or a dvd of both the End Of The Road and More From Road, only for them not to play properly. Think they speeded up or kept skipping or something, anyway they were not really playable. I don't think I chased it up, couldn't be bothered. I'd always had the End Of The Road on video, but not the More From The Road and we had moved onto dvd players etc for some time. Edit: Oh forgot to say, if Swisscheese is or was indeed Andy or Rhino, I think that's really quite funny and brilliant. Some of the posts were always interesting to say the least and did make you wonder! Also, Ricky’s board? I'd forgotten about that, but now it's been mentioned I remember the name, was that one before this one then? I must have signed up to that one, I just can't really remember. The fact I'm here means it must have been pretty bad or toxic as has been said, same bickering and not letting things go I guess. Did that one shut down too then?

So, where does the quocupsncafe site fit in? Was that an alternative to Ricky's short-lived affair? I think Mortified is involved, he'll know.

Didn't Teleboogie end up in a Norwegian jail or something? Quo fans, eh? He'll run into Muzz in the World penal system somewhere on the planet. He faked it , we all know it. I would do the same if I had the Vatican police. 19 wives, 45 angry husbands and partners and the Asian Fallen Women's HQ . 😂

What happened to Swiss cheese aka rhino 🦆 A number of years ago my close buddy (bluehighway) told me in strict confidence 😇 that swisscheese was in fact his very good friend……. Andy Bown! Andy loved logging on to this site, and previous boards, while on the touring bus. Andy was a very funny fella and was great at doing a Swiss accent and had a lot of fun writing his posts using that ‘accent’, and loved the reactions after winding up a lot of readers of his posts. Just a way of passing time on the bus. Still to this day the mysterious Tony Carey has that conspiracy cloud over it.🧐 Maybe swisscheese is also bluehighway?

Row for Quo was genius! 😂 🛶 Definitely the classic era from swissie’s heyday! 😏

Yes it shut down too because Ricky was getting fed up of all the annoying bickering. I think he was putting in place some new moderators to help him but in the end he decided to end it. He was a young man and must have had better things to do with his time! He did however give everyone fair warning so they had time to save any posts or personal messages.

It was another board set up shortly after the original board was pulled. They were strictly moderated and only ‘nice’ people were invited! I’m being flippant, they were just trying to carry on the Quo online family without all the drama but even they had trolls from time to time.

Made some friends off that board, was invited to a wedding and to several birthday bashes, one in Sweden. Had one male stay at my house for a couple of nights when, unknown to me, my daughter kept driving past in case I was being buried under the patio. Sadly attended another's funeral and regretfully fell out with another. BTW Gaz Xmas greetings to Tony's fans popped up in my newsfeed on Fb so I wished him greetings in reply on behalf of us all. Yes,Anne, I got it too but it was just a general Merry Christmas to all his facebook followers. He replied to a few well wishers but I noticed there was no direct reply to you… he was probably confused.🧐 Try contacting the real Tony via his email address: Either tonycarey.com or tcmusic@web.de When I wrote to him via that email address He literally had no idea who I was, and had never visited this or any other Status Quo board but said he had a few ‘nutters’ he knew of who trolled him. He suggested anyone could get information about him including many of his Soulmates gig photos via his Facebook page. Good luck Anne.👍
