is the latest version - still need half a dozen good pix, and of course these are merely my choices, I'm hoping others will express opinions on pix they want in or out................

(good job no one at work knows how much time I'm spending doing this)

Excellent! The June picture is Tim and theclaud.

I have amended it. Not sure which Tim (O or H) but not sure that matters much!

Glad you like it. Your witch tree seems to be low-res - if you have one that is high-res could you send it to me please?

Also, I have had a look round your Flickr stream, lots of good stuff there, anything in particular you really really like (apart from the ones you already told me you really really like!)?

martin, i'll have a look at the latest version on truprint tonight. If any of my photos are on there. I'll email you high resolution ones.

can you also put on your thinking cap and see if you have others you are particularly fond of. maybe they could go up here for discussion/thoughts from the peeps.
although there are only a few gaps - offhand i think the calendar needs three portrait-types, and a couple of big ones, I'd like to provide the peeps with a choice. Although some of the pix are really cracking, IMHO

 

[mmmmartin]

i entirely agree. but this does depend on people suggesting their pix or other people's pix. i'd love a couple of group shots. tim d has some and i think i'll pester him. he has been quiet recently so he may be away.

There's been loads of times I've forgotten to take my camera, sadly, but here's a few, to bring back happy memories:-

I like the one of dellzeqq drinking champers but it is a video. do you have any others you like? if so please do put them up here. that appies to others, of course.i think some group shots would be good, following Tiny My Newt's comment, with which i concur.

 

[mmmmartin]

no, but what a good idea. i'll try to find the time to do that.I was hoping peeps would suggest their own favourites and we could have some sort of democratic decision. it's not working out like that. Yet.

 

[Tim Hall]

Full res ones of A Brighton Street Drinker and a Frank making his escape to France are here, along with a few others. They're quite big, so will sap your data if you're on a limited plan.

 

[Aperitif]

Perhaps everyone could do this. It's worthwhile just for the superb memories.

How do you think us lesser mortals find succour in our lives, Adrian? Living in the past requires sublime effort!

 

[Aperitif]

Alcohol, the same as everyone else.

Ah, bugger - I knew I would get something right sooner or later.


(Council gritter lorries are out on the Euston Road tonight)

Shots of people riding together are a relative rarity because it is difficult to ride and take photos of people riding behind and facing you.

Difficult but not impossible! Martin, I'll email you a couple of this genre that I took along the seafront in Blackpool. They'll need a bit of cropping and free rotation but one might work - with the Tower in the background.

I'll also send the one with evidence of Adrian disobeying instructions from authority at a railway station.

Edit - actually when I saw them again the ones that I took over my shoulder were a bit poorly framed!

 

[mmmmartin]

thanks to all for a full inbox on arrival at work this morning! still need more choice though, so if anyone has any stuff they'd like to suggest, get in touch.

 

[mmmmartin]

I need a couple of big pix and two that would make nice portraits. Any of people riding in a group would be nice: those I currently have are slightly out of focus and blowing them to A4 size exaggerates that to an uncomfortable degree.

I have added the FNRttC provisional dates to the months. These can easily be changed if necessary.
I don't like the November pic.
