Yeh the moderators have to censor the pictures first so it can take a day or so. @Sysiyo, what are you holding in that first pic? I like the 3rd pic the best, it bugs me when guys with long hair tie it back. I wonder if Mike ever did that, never saw a picture of it. You grow that hair!! @Ray, you remind me of Harry Nillson, are you a hippie? -------------- I hate getting up early. I didn't even realise there were two 6 o'clocks in one day! Back to top

It seems to have been taken down now, otherwise I would have linked straight to it. Quote (hiawatha @ Feb. 23 2006, 18:11) Looks a lot like the shores of Gitche-Gumme. You couldn't ride a birch canoe with paddles in that sea I'm pretty convinced that the bit of coastline further up was used in Mike's video to 'Northpoint' as a background. I thought that was Norway!!  In fact I think I read that somewhere.  Ray -------------- Looking out over the harbour in Peel....... Back to top

Hi pingu!!  Hippy??  err probably either to old or not old enough.  But I go through phases of hair long & short, shaven & not, today is shaven and short - last month was long and hairy (er.. so to speak).  And who's Harry Nillson, not the Nillson - of that one hit i cant remember just now?  I drive a landrover - does that make me a hippy??? yes - Guitar is nice to play - Toran likes it too!!!  But he's got teeth now so he'll have to stop chewing on it.  (Hee Hee). picture of me tring to leave my house to go to work!!  Say ant home and play guitar - that what I say...

TubularBelle Group: Members Posts: 1487 Joined: April 2004 Posted: Mar. 15 2006, 18:37 Oh My God Ray, cool picture, my partner is into 4wdriving we have some great kicking up the sand pictures. Just got back from a 3 day Long Weekend camping, (a horse called Tubular Bells ran in the Adelaide Cup and came second! ) and our 'Tommy' the Toyota circa around 83 I think, it's a B40 if that means anything, fared better than the newer 4wd's except for the $70,000 Nissan Patrol, that could climb glass. Anyway Harry Nilsson had MANY hits, his most well known might be 'One' a huge hit in Australia with John Farnham or my favourite 'Without You'. He had an incredible octave. I guess you must be 30 or under, that would explain it. (died about 10 years ago) Others include 'Everybodys talkin', 'Many rivers to cross', 'Mr Bojangles', 'Me and my arrow'.

No - almost the same age (43) as you, I was only joking....The one hit he had here (UK - Scotland) was "Without You". The picture is actualy me trying to take Fin to school - we gave up after about 4hrs.  It was 4days until the plough opened the main road - about a mile from the house. I've done quite alot of competetive offroad driving in Snow and Desert.  Also holiday expeditions in Iceland - Now we need to club together and buy Mike a ticket to Iceland (although I think he will have been ther already) but as a background visit for creating his next album it would probably invoke some incedible sounds. We tend to drive landrovers!! I've got a Camel 110, a 90 and 2 series 3's but also have a Toyota LC for Jonelle (Wifey).  The toyota climbs trees!!!!     Yo     Ray -------------- Looking out over the harbour in Peel.......

That picture (and a bunch of others) were inspired by a photo-shoot Gary Numan did around 1980 for the Telekon album (here's an example of the originals). Back to top

Ray Group: Members Posts: 857 Joined: Jan. 2000 Posted: Mar. 16 2006, 15:39 Tony,   the best thing to do is to make the picture less then 102400 bytes then find it with the brows box just below this text entry screen you type in when you write to the forum.   Because you are adding a picture and to protect everyone one of the admin chaps will look at it to make sure you're not too ugly (Hee Hee) - or the picture doesnt contrain something we dont want to see etc.,  It will appear some time later - so expect a few hrs delay.

TubularBelle Group: Members Posts: 1487 Joined: April 2004 Posted: Mar. 22 2006, 17:51 G'day. Wanted to show you a larger picture of my excellent avatar that TubularMan designed for me. Got a 10"X12" photo copied from Bryan Hibles Ommadawn Painting. I wanted to see how detailed a painting would look that size in case I order one for myself but of course photographing a larger portrait and reducing it gives a lot more detail, DOH! Looks fabulous framed on my wall!!   @Lee, could you tell me the dimensions of your Ommadawn Painting please. If it was twice that size which I imagine it was, and you have two of them, they were VERY generous gifts from your girlfriend. Hope you bought her a diamond ring as a thank you!
