It is the truth. Ash where are you?

Noel, that's really you? I thought it was a photo of a comedic actor from Laugh-In ('68-'72 TV show) named Arte Johnson.

Self portrait, me, looking down into the bright light of a desk lamp.
Lamp next to my face and camera beneath.
If you turn the avatar upside down you'll see a face. My face.

Yes it is me at the rngfdr forum London CNY 'outing'. ManGo published his shots of Ash. he also told me to take of the hood cap If I wanted to take photos of him, I allus use a hood and cap, up until I lose it.
The hat is an ozone hole hat, too many freckles.

A Bottle of HP Sauce. Sadly no longer made in Birmingham, England, but in The Netherlands. I guess it could be classed as a Hollandaise........







Sorry 'bout that :eek:
 
First off, it's hillarious to read the older posts in this thread ...

Secondly, I just uploaded my first avatar ever, it's the Olympus Ace-E, not the oldest of Oly's, but one of the more interesting ( to me and a handful of Oly-addicts :) anyways )
 
It's a polaroid I found in my dad's closet-- me in my snowsuit, trudging through the snow in our so-called back yard (we lived in a mobile home); age 3, 1969. Boone, NC.

It's why I live near the ocean now and always will.
 
Sean (or shorn!) the sheep from Wallace and Grommit, like me he is sometimes down but NEVER out!!

What do you call a flock of sheep in the north of Scotland-----

A leisure centre!!:eek: :eek:

It's a satellite image of the square next to which I live (Cosmonaut Square in Tashkent), with the "Cosmonauts" metro station indicated by the logo of Tashkent metro. The station is my favourite here, 1970's Soviet science-fiction architecture with large panels illustrating successes and renowned persons of Soviet space travel (Tsiolkovsky, Korolev, Gagarin, Tereshkova, Leonov - unfortunately photography is forbidden in metro stations, and there is about five policemen on every station...) The line in the middle of the square is the Cosmonauts Memorial, with a statue of the first Uzbek cosmonaut Vladimir Janibekov. The memorial is nowadays used by a lot of skaters to practise skateboard moves.
