You met Roy Orbison?! I thought he was dead!

First time i've seen this pic, and you beat me to it

Playmobile Roy Orbison is mucho awesome

[Moon-Crane]

Keren's face is very expressive. This particular expresssion is saying 'Why, mummy - why must we have our photo taken with every giant Playmobil person we encounter? What if someone we know walks past and sees us standing here? I know I'm only four, but you're already embarrassing me, I'm sure that's not supposed to happen until I'm a teenager.'

Great pic

Well played, sir.

[Dorset Girl]

You're all nutters.

I showed Jo the photo and the first thing she said was Roy Orbison

I want to steal it and put it in my singing room with a mic stand in front of it and an inflatable guitar round it's neck

They sell on ebay for about £800.

OK, I want to steal it and put it on ebay then

[Dorset Girl]

Okay, let's do it! It's chained to the machine next to it, so we'd have to steal that too. Or take some strong wire cutters, I suppose that would be easier!

i was looking at the Star Wars Uncut site today. It made me think - you should really recreate one of the segments in Playmobil.

Despite being a girl geek, I have never seen Star Wars! Well - actually, I saw Episode 1 at the cinema, but it made no sense to me and I can't remember anything about it.

Depends what's in the machine.
If it's a vending machine, and the vending machine contains Jammy Dodgers, the payoff just got bigger

You really want to click that "But it now" button don't you?

Well, for someone who's been asking for film recommendations, i suggest you get hold of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope as soon as possible. If nowt else, it'll make more sense of a hell of a lot of pop culture references in other films and tv shows

Starting with the worst one was probably not a good idea! I agree with MC. Get yourself a copy of Episode IV. Still amazing after all these years.

[Dorset Girl]

Okey dokey, will do! And FJ - yes, I'd love that giant figure, but I'd rather have the £800.

Does anyone use photobucket? And is anyone having any problems with the site?

Yes and no. ??

Ta. It's working for me now. None of the images were initially appearing, but after several minutes of it fannying about, it's finally decided to throw up a window of T&Cs that i had to accept to carry on and see/do anything.

Weird. Hooray for fannying about.

That sounded a lot stranger than I meant it to.

[Moon-Crane]

Probably been bought and sold since i last accessed it

Only wanted to chuck up some of the pics from the trip to HK. Arty farty low light/night shots.

Admiralty 'banking district' on Hong Kong Island.



Harbour shots from The Peak




Midnight in Mong Kok

[Dorset Girl]

Verrry nice! I love night shots. I particularly like the first and second ones - the tower seems to disappear into the clouds, brill. Love the traffic trails in the first one. Also really like all the hustle and bustle in the street shots - great!

Ta. For that traffic trail shot i wanted to do a longer exposure, but i had no tripod with me and so had to just balance the camera on the bridge (with the strap wrapped around my neck) in drizzle and wind - i only risked ten seconds

[Dorset Girl]

That makes it even more impressive!

I've tried similar things with varying amounts of success - I was in London one evening with no tripod, and got strange looks for balancing my camera in odd places and taking photos in the rain! Some were okay, others were rubbish.

I had plenty of fails. That's the fun of it. You get a bunch of duff shots for the one that works. Certainly the benefit of digital cameras over the days of film.

Wowzers! Those are superb shots M-C
