A thread for posting photos of yourself, family and friends. Please read here before posting.

Hooray! I don't have many of these as reserved for mainly special meetings now, but by pure chance I appear to have seen this first as well.
This is the room I have the computer, and I am with Nick Pope, the UK UFO investigator who was originally the Ministry of Defence's UFO desk occupant and now researches full time, and I am one of his helpers since 2001. There is a small fraction of my car collection behind us as well.

This is from five years ago, when me, Mum and Dad visited Stratford Upon Avon, during a very hot summer.This is the house of a "rather famous" W. Shakespeare.

(I was also five stone heavier )
This is a great idea for photos!

Jane, lovely photo! I was there as well in October 2007...gosh it was so amazing to be able to walk inside Shakespeare's house.

Stratford-upon-Avon is a lovely place. I thoroughly enjoyed walking around there and sitting by the river...such a lovely place! Your photo brings back many recent memories for me. Thanks for posting it.

Edited to insert a left out word.

Oh no, it's me again, this is in the gym lifting my maximum free weight, 60kg including the bar, 3X8 repeats.

Okay, now don't everyone run and hide all at once. Let's see how long this photo can stay under-wraps.

I'll introduce myself for the first time, this is myself and my wife. I'm on the right.

I live in Germany but i'm originally from S. Yorkshire.

Welcome, leaine.

This is my beautiful mother leaning against a very large rose quartz rock.

None of me (yet ), but here are my husband, and my kids and step-kids at Fort Point, a Civil War era fort at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Another picture of William

Here is my wife and I at Lake Louise

Welcome, leaine, nice photo.

ClaraSue, Your mom is a beautiful woman.

djs, What a good looking family you have there!

Auntie Jane, William just keeps getting cuter, doesn't he?

SOTHC, You are a very handsome couple and your wife's smile is only fitting considering the grief she must take from you! I say that with love and now I know the face behind one of our quickest wits on here in the Chains. From now on I will picture that oh so devilish grin of yours as I read your words!

Anyone who's been following my ufo research will have heard about my abductees who have been on TV with me. There are three, and here are two of them one one of their visits to my house, I am on the left. It was taken a couple of years ago.

Beautiful sunset on the Newmarket gallops - bit late for racing! My lovely OH...well wrapped up against the biting easterly wind.

My granddaughter and our cat. The first time they met, they were both very wary of each other. Even now, Zorro still hides when Breanna comes to visit.

From my nephew's wedding, which we attended last Saturday. The three children are my grandchildren, and the slim blonde girl on the bride's right is my niece.
The bride is now of course, also a family member.

It's so nice to see the faces behind the names. Such happy friends, families, couples, faces . Reminds me that the best things we have in life ... are always each other.

Bless.... what a terrific couple - that is one lovely photograph Shelley... have a safe trip.

Lovely photos everyone.
Last month saw the 80th birthday of my mum's dear cousin Eric. I went to the party and took him a silk coat and hat from here. He was thrilled and wore them all the time!He is a game lad. Lost his wife after a long fight with cancer last year, then took up with a lady he met at the hospital. She bosses him about, he loves it, she arranged the party and also an exhibition of his paintings. She also made him change doctors to one who gave him less of the medicine that was getting him down and making him miserable. Result: A happy, confident much younger Eric! He is a fascinating chap. Here we are at the party.

Yes, very nice photos ...but could we please be careful of image sizes. 640 pixels should the maximum dimension height or width.

Edit: Only just realised! (well, I've been doing lots around the house today ). Please only post one photo a day (see '6' here). It's new forum so I'll leave well alone but it is something else to remember.

sorry about the one larger photo,
they were both resized by photobucket:

however
my two photos show one a day:

#1004064 - Fri Jul 25 2008 10:29 PM

#1004070 - Sat Jul 26 2008 12:06 AM

you can remove them if you like.,

Put it down to the time difference, in the UK which is where Martin lives (and me) the times of the two photos are:

Sat Jul 26 2008 06:29 AM
Sat Jul 26 2008 08:06 AM

I suppose that posting them just a few hours apart can cause en erroneous day to be shown depending on where you are in the world.

The light of my life! My granddaughter when she came to stay a few months ago.
