You make it sound like you're asking me on a date!

I tried so hard not too make it sound like that - but I knew that no matter how I phrased it, it would just sound like me asking you out!

But I wasn't, so don't get any big ideas! However, if you happen to find yourself watching a band at the TW Forum one weekend, bring your camera along. I maybe there, I might not..........

.....Christ, now I sound like I'm playing hard to get I give up

Tart...

This thread is making me laugh today.

Incidentally, that artist guy I posted shots of asked me out last week, I obviously need to work on looking more straight, or go gay!!

[funkydan]

Well sod this for a game of soldiers! You try to be friendly and everyone just assumes gayness!!

Does anyone know where I can get a cheap 2GB xD card?
There are plenty of places like dvd.co.uk, amazon marketplace etc, but I need it by Wednesday for definite. Jessops etc have them but they want ?50 for them. Crazy people!

Edit - Never mind! Ordered a Lexar one for ?35 with next day delivery from ebuyer. Should be here tomorrow!
I'll let you know how the Fuji F31fd is over the next couple of days too! Now, if only I were keeping it...

Shame I didn't see this earlier - dvd.co.uk have got some crazy priced memory cards atm: http://www.dvd.co.uk/searchplus.asp?...Y&searchFor=xd

Oh wells... I needed it by tomorrow or Wednesday anyway. Thanks for the happy thoughts Marty. This thread's all loved up right now.
I think we need to start a beard contest or something to reclaim our collective manliness.

So romantic......

Me with beard, it's not that long at the moment.

Anyone else?

You cannot believe how much I laughed at that yet it is a very exciting and well taken photo at the same time. The poor bugger must have had a sore neck in the morning!

I have not visited this thread for a few weeks and I come back to see some wonderful photos, plenty of abstracts and finding out that there is room for a dating agency group within this thread too.

As for this new beard related subject, I have the odd case of bum fluff when I cannot be bother to shave. This photo was taken a fair while ago so please excuse my miserable looking mug:



Notice the t-shirt, the theme in particular?

Yeah, he was singing like that all night long!

GT, how much crop is on the 2nd shot? If you caught that full frame I'm VERY impressed.

I'm not quick enough for that!

Size was much the same as the first picture. Cropped it as was at a funny angle. Probably due to me falling over.

My new baby...

Actually its second hand (even i'm not silly enough to pay the price for a new one)...

[andrewfee]

How much does even a second-hand Leica M8 go for though, out of interest?

[MartyG]

Hope you get your money's worth from it - I can't imagine it was that cheap second hand given they're about £3K new. I not sure they're really worth the premium, but if you've got the mulah ..

I took a couple of macro shots earlier this evening, nothing particularly special, but I thought the gold on this fly was quite nice.
