I know what you mean Dea.

I have reloaded it from the original on my computer several times but each time it comes out much more wrinkly than it appears in the original. I will post another avatar for the time being until I have played about "Softening" the original to see whether when I load that modified image, the correct degree of wrinklyness appears on GR.

'The correct degree of wrinklyness' is very important Jonesey !!

In the meanwhile, your new one will 'do', but I look forward to seeing the 'kindly old man' again soon!!

Dea,

Its a Smurf (Normal colour = Blue) with a Santa hat on. He is sitting on a bench.

I too remember having to visit the outside lavvy or Ty Bach as Fanny would say. Not much fun at all during the winter months. When frost was forecast my father used to suspend a small lighted paraffin fuelled car sump heater beneath the cistern to stop it freezing up. It didn't provide much comfort for those who had to sit beneath it though. Kids today don't know they have been born. ;-)

Why do you want Cyn to send him a message Gins? He is not a newbie

Gee

Gee Report 14 Dec 2011 18:25

I know Ja..x I did think about that but thought that he may have posted in the past and never come back!

Dea what on earth do you mean about sewing a scarf into a hat? Errr....why?

jax Report 14 Dec 2011 18:28
