There ya go buddy! Congrats.

Happily ever after. :celebrat:

Congratulations, Elspode! I hope there will be photos. Hint, hint. :)

From the "Land of the Free" to the "Home of the Brave"

YAY! That's so awesome Els!! All the happiness to you both!!!

YAY ELS! :D

Sorry Sarge some things just trump latrine photos ;)

Lovely pic, Sarge, TMI maybe?

Congrats big Els. She'd better treat you right or she'll have us to answer to!
(not meaning to sound aggressive to the woman you love, but, well... you know)

Me, RF Last Night.
Went to a girlie BBQ with Mum last night. I was the girliest - 5 years younger than the next girl. It was good fun though, had some good chats, aired some opinions, sang some songs. I was invited by the host, but when Mum passed the invite on to me it seemed lukewarm. It was only that she repeated it, and has been despairing of me hardly ever leaving the house that made me consider it. Then, as I was actually getting ready to go, she knocked on my door to say she was getting ready to go to the BBQ and was I interested? Which banished my fears that she didn't want me there.

I might post some more in the Aylesbury thread, as we discussed some things (like 50 Shades of Grey) and I have more pics.
But this is me last night.

I look very big.
But it's not a self-portrait for once.
And I like my hair.

I don't think you look 'very big' in either of those shots, Chez. I was actually thinking you look really lovely.

Also, how is that you appear to be getting younger? Is there a painting in your attic of you looking haggard?

Bravo Spode!

Sarge I'm trying not to smell that porto.:dead:

Congrats 'spode!!! So happy for you both :)

Sundae, I LOVE that top!

Good stuff Els...and good luck! lol

I think you look just like you in those pics Sundae. You are what you are. The camera doesn't lie. ;)

Sarge...you couldn't find somewhere else to hide? Those potties are usually the stinkiest places in the universe as far as my nose is concerned. I'd rather do hard labour than sit in one for nothing. lol

Congratulations Els!!!! Sundae, you look ravishing & I have to agree that top is "marvelous". As for me, they never think to come looking for you in the port-a-john. It's the best place to hide when its time for bodies for some senseless detail. BTW, we refer to them as shit details. Sort of ironic?

Sundae - you're gorgeous. Simply and elegantly gorgeous. And I love that top, too!


Dana's comment about the decrepit pic in the attic gave me a laff.

You girls are wunnerful, wunnerful.

Congrats Els. Wishing you both much happiness.

Congrats, Elspode. Enjoy!

This is Max and me RFN. I had my hair cut and coloured yesterday, then straightened so was trying to take a selfie, but someone stuck his head in, so he's in it too. :)

Lookin' good! (And he's cu-UTE!)

Yeah, everyone says he's cute. Even those who meet him in person. lol I only wish half as many thought I was so cute. :(

This is Max not me, but the pic is so cute I thought you'd all like to see anyway. :)

Ali, you are beautiful. Love your hair.

haha...thanks ortho. :)

Ha Ha Photo bombed by MAX !!!!

Yer both Goooorgus My dear !!!

Thanks zippy. :)

Great pics Ali! You are definitely a hottie! Pics of Max make me want to say, "Awwwww".

Like I have said before, we have so many beautiful women on here.

Cute pic Ali. Looking good.

Thanks fellas. :) I came here looking for compliments, and look what I got! Lucky me. xx for you both.

awwwwwwwwwww.....the pix of Max with the doggies is so cute.

Yeah...:) The really cute part is that they do that all the time. Cleo lays down and Max goes and gets Sally and makes her lay down with them. Sometimes in the carport, sometimes in the dog house, sometimes on the lawn. Anywhere really.

Thanks for all the kind words, folks. And Ali, you're looking great! I can't believe how big Max is. Just doesn't seem that long since you were pregnant with him...

You are both cute and beautiful, Ali.

And Max ain't half bad looking either.

Too cute. Just adorable. The little dog looks blissfully happy, and the big dog looks relaxed but protective. Max seems in his element.

Love to see kids experiencing close bonds with animals.

[eta] Loving the straight hair Ali.

Thanks Dana. :)

Those dogs love that boy so much. He spends a lot of his play time with them..and in his little kid way, he's not very nice to them at times. He does things like picks Sally up and puts her in the water bucket because he thinks she needs a bath - which is usually true, but a bucket of cold water on a cool morning is probably not desirable. If the dogs are lying next to the garden, he'll run his trucks over them or shovel dirt on them (then of course give them a bath). Sometimes he sits on Cleo and bounces up and down till she gets sick of it and stands up.

Mostly they just tag along after him and make themselves comfy somewhere within a couple of metres of where he's playing though. He's well and truly one of the pack as far as they're concerned, and they indulge him just as they would a pup. It's just lovely to see.

Remember ^^THAT^^ next time your "in a mood. ;)

Love that hair Sundae!

Ali, your lips are beautiful.

Just bored at work.

Looking good,girl. I like the hair

Did you post that when you took it? Were you working at 7:53 am on a Sunday? Won't that get you burned at the stake in Texas?;)

The hair looks nice, and so does the halo.

You look so happy to be at work mtp. ;)

eta: Don't know if I've ever told you think before, but often when I look at pics of you, they remind me of myself. I think it's your colouring which is similar to mine when I'm in my natural state. I hope you find that complimentary, cause I think I'm hot! ;)

Thank you all.
@Ali, thank you for the special compliment
@Rich, it was 6:53am my time. I'm surprised the building wasn't burned down around my ears.

If you see a boot car, you don't have a choice. You have to pose.

Der Glatt Mobile !!!!

There was a young man who drove in a shoe
he had so many traffic tickets he didn't know what to do

Hmm, so you're planning on running for Vice-President in the future. It has to carry as much weight as the Weinermobile. ;)

Beat me to it Bruce! Nice shot Glatt.

@Glatt and the boot vehicle: super cool!

Nice teeth!

Cutie! :)

You look radiant there MTP.
Like someone with no worries, which is great to see when I know you've been through the mill lately.

Have you lost weight?
You're looking good on it anyway.

mtp - you have pearly whites! you are really looking good

Glatt - were you at Bean's ?

I saw the car at Bean's in Freeport, and then two days later at a parade in Lewiston for the hot air balloon festival.

My beloved, I *so* love her!

That's one pretty lady. :)

MY cousin went to that!! OMG!

It's like...we're...connected! Like the allstate commercial!

:lol:

I took a ton of pictures at the parade. If she was standing near me in the center of the bridge span, she might be in some of the "crowd" shots. Crowd is in quotes because you can't call a group of 3 people a crowd.

Mary is beautiful, Pam.

Me, today, in Browns in Oxford.
I'll write it up later.
I was drinking a Havana Breeze (Havana Club Especial Rum, St Germain Elderflower liqueur,
melon, sugar and lime).
Not as nice as the Midori Iced Tea in Glasgow, but if you're buying then I'm drinking.

lookin' good sundae! and a nice cool beverage to beat the heat with!
