Hehehe... That's the intention! :eyebrows:
Why do you think Del's registered here as Lily Munster? ;)
The antique knocker on our door also has a bat on it, haha!! And remember the Hammer House of Horror series from the 70s?
That little side window of ours reminds me of the one shown in the old house in the theme tune, where the monk (or whoever) blows out the candle and descends the room into darkness......
I absolutely LOVED that series!!!
Marco.
Come to think of it, there are rather a lot of unexplained disappearances from the forum, people who suddenly stop posting after Marco gets friendly with them! :eek:Quote:

Erm, guys, this amount of information about who you are and where you live just isn’t clever.
You may like to think that the world is full of nice people but the bad news is it isn’t.
My mate reckons he could find 2 of you inside 5mins; who you are, where you live, your phone numbers and a bit more besides. Fortunately this guy is one of the good guys, the next one may not be.
Seriously, it ain’t a nice world and most of you seem like nice people. Don’t put this sort of stuff on an internet forum.
Hi John,
Don't worry, I have a best friend called 'Holland & Holland', whom I'd introduce intimately to any bad men who came calling! ;)
I appreciate your concern, though :)
Marco.
Yeah, whatever Marco.
For the rest of you, think on it.
Very good point John ' that's why i don't go on facebook , but i guess this is almost as vulnerable .
Marco your friend's Holland & Holland sound very enticing , i have a similar but more conventional chum called Stuart Surridge ! he's getting on a bit now but still quite handy at close quarter's :)
'Out The Back' about 2 hrs ago.

You guys are scary :eek:
I’ve got visions of Marco trying to swing a full length twelve bore on a stair well and Chris blowing chunks of woodwork away with his antique until the barrel peels and now we’ve got Andy doing one handed pumps blowing holes in the ceiling :doh:
I’ll visit you all on the numbers coz you ain’t going to be able to mix with the rest of the prison population once you’ve murdered a burglar.
Like to know what I’ve got? A brain :rolleyes:
:lolsign:
Taken with my old K800 , not a good pic but you can see what its like here .

{Note to burglars: if you can get through the 6-inch thick solid-wood antique doors, I'll be waiting for you behind them!!}
:guns: :guns:
Come on in if you think you're hard enough!!! :eyebrows:

Oh, and this is for anyone who doesn't like Christmas trees.....

Once the burglars are shot dead, Dracula indoors drains them of their 'claret' (and we use it in the Bouillabaisse)! :lol:
Marco.
Superb picture, Hamish!! :stalks: :youtheman:Quote:

My favourite friend is Holland & Barratt - anyone breaks in here I'll force feed the bastard some Tea Tree oil! ;)
What I love the most about Snow is the way it changes dynamics. The dynamics of travelling and clothing are fairly obvious, but the way it completely deadens sound is almost spooky. Definitely a hifi lesson there! But the most amazing dynamic change for me is light - I've just been outside and it is like being out in the middle of the day, the beautiful whiteness acting as the perfect reflector - God is definitely a photographer.
Somebody forgotten something here :scratch:
Who had the white xmas?....
Not me but i wasn't in on it :eyebrows:
No white Chrimbo for me either - not sure if I win or lose - can't remember, and 26 bottles of wine in 3 days (between 6 of us!) has taken its toll. Equally importantly, how did Marco get on viewing Wynn Hall?
Postponed due to the weather and proximity to Christmas.... However, interest will be reignited after the hols :)
Sadly, no white Christmas here either! :(
Btw, have you seen this:

Marco.
Yes, but I was kind of ignoring it... :) I'll post over on that thread! ;)Quote:

Marco.
I could really do without this crap today, i've got a chest infection, i need shopping & a new hoover. If the taxi's go off i'm in the shyte big style :steam:
Where's the bloody snow then this year? :confused:
Me wants to see some white stuff!
Marco.
Stick your white stuff up ya botty, I'd rather have a cheap gas bill thank you :eyebrows:
Ha - you've got no soul! :ner:
Marco.
You are quite right Marco, only got Salmon, Oak smoked Haddock, Pilchards & Breaded Haddock around here :rfl:
A bus stop in oxford street London during the boxing day sales. And that was only half the queue. Thanks to a strike by London underground staff. Sheeeesh...!!!

Bloody hell... They're all aff their nuts! :mental: :mental:

Marco.
Your not wrong there Marco. Fools the lot of them...!Quote:

Anyway, if any of you are caught up in a big motorway tailback somewhere, or delayed in some way on the road because of heavy snow, get your mobiles out and take pictures, while you're stuck there, and post them here for our perusal - cheers! :cool:
Marco.

(looks familiar)
It's funny how you lot down south are getting it first, instead of us up here in the supposed 'frozen north'.... :scratch:
Marco.
Still loads of snow here
http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/s...6/P1020197.jpg
But plenty of vinyl :)

Lol - interesting choice of music, Roy, and a nice dusty record, too! :eyebrows:
Right, off to me scratcher... Let's hope I wake up to some nice fluffy snow tomorrow morning :)
Marco.
Dust? (does it matter with 'Arcade' LPs?) Mary Hopkins sounds ok to me 'those were the days...'
Some snow, some hair.

:D:D:D
Anyone got some nice snowy pics they can share? What poor buggers have to drive into their work this morning? :eek: :eyebrows:
Stuck in a nice motorway traffic jam? Photograph it on your mobile... Showz yer snowy nightmares!!
Marco.

Slightly snowy Weymouth
No traffic jams for me as I walk to work - this is the view from my desk, you can't see it, but its snowing heavily in the distance - not much work being done TBH and a few desks are empty. Time for a bacon sandwich over the golf club I reckon ;)
http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w...ps7349db09.jpg
Snowing here, not heavy but steady. I took the precaution of booking the day off work - took one and a half hours to get home last night - an average speed of 3 miles an hour...
http://i903.photobucket.com/albums/a...psfa393565.jpg
Not so much fresh snow, but it sure is winter.
I'll be spending a couple of hours in the cross country tracks during the weekend. Music never sounds so sweet as after a couple of hours of workpout, cool down, shower and then a wee dram of single malt in sweet spot! :)
