Yes, well. The poster is usually on my door but its being re-painted and so I had to move it. I couldn't be bothered putting it up properly and didn't notice it was in the picture until it was too late. Oh well.
With the redecorating my room is in a bit of a mess, but I just got a new camera today so I wanted to try it out regardless.

Just got a pic of me

My sister managed to take an okay pic of me, but it was so blurry that I had to photoshop it almost unrecognisable before it looked decent enough. Anyway, here it is.

I like it Lommy, it's artistic.

And here's just what the world needs, another picture of me. I had the urge the other day to take a picture with headphones, as that's what I'm generally wearing when I'm on the computer.

Headphones

Diamond, I've always wondered how can one have such eyebrows as yours.

By washing my face in the blood of virgins.

Heh. Actually, what do you mean? I wasn't aware that they were special.

That's pretty cool picture, you look like a singer from the 60s. Maybe a folk singer?

Hookbill - is that the woman from McCalls/McColls/Martins in your picture, giving you some lip for daring to enter the shop and trouble her with wanting to buy a newspaper? It certainly reminds me of her...

Yes, I think it is. She doesnt work there anymore, however. It's now populated by teenagers who stare blankly into space whenever the alarm goes off signaling that someone has just left the store without paying for something.

Di, I like the headphones pic. The expression on your face is exactly how I imagine Skittles in ATMII.

Maybe they wouldn't be so rude if all you wanted to do was to get your latest issue of Smash Hits though (80s era). Oooh, I'll never forget that woman! I'm scarred for life!

Now I know why I said 'folk singer' - there is this well-known picture of singer Anne Briggs (as far as Anne Briggs is known, I bet nobody else here knows who she is ) that's in a similar style!
