Title: How do I do it?
Post by: Agent|Austin on March 03, 2009, 11:07:57: This is mainly for jack, since he made that comment about editing photos, but anyone can guess (besides terry ;D)

None of the following photos are edited.

Testing use a red light

Is it because I am now in Scotland? :'( <Scottish Icon>

Post by: Ballast on March 03, 2009, 17:23:25: I guess you did it with a laser pen or something, in combination with a long exposure time on your camera :)
Title: Re: How do I do it?
Post by: Agent|Austin on March 03, 2009, 20:04:51: 30 second exposure with just a flash light. :p

Post by: Agent|Austin on March 03, 2009, 20:11:51: Logitech Extreme 3D Pro, got it for my birthday last year since I wanted a joystick with a Z axis & HAT switch.

This is "Small Talk" There is no such thing as off topic. ;)

Post by: Gloat on March 04, 2009, 14:39:19: Yes there is.

Its just a bit more respectable to go off topic then in other areas of the forum ;)

Sorry to be pedantic, and geeky (like AA's shirt :D) but the blue in that flag is too light, a scottish flag usually looks more like this:

Title: Re: How do I do it?
Post by: RMSGreatBritain on March 04, 2009, 19:17:29: yup, I know :D
Title: Re: How do I do it?
Post by: TerryRussell on March 04, 2009, 19:48:53: I must say that when I first saw it, I thought "wrong colour". So RMSGB does have a very good point.

Perhaps the fact I was in Scotland at the time made it more pertinent, but cyan is wrong.

Post by: RMSGreatBritain on March 04, 2009, 20:43:50: Indeed thank you Mr Russell ;D
Title: Re: How do I do it?
Post by: TerryRussell on March 05, 2009, 19:33:24: No problem Mr Large Vessel. ;D

I'm now in Manchester, so I can pretend that cyan is OK. :evil:

Hi Jack (must stop saying that in airports).

Yep. Back home tomorrow. This has been a 1,000 mile drive, with work to do one every day. Still, off to Australia for work in a few week's time. That makes a trip to Scotland seem like nothing.

But as I said to Carl recently, if I let diabetes stop me doing something just because it makes it difficult, I'll eventually end up unable to do anything. So, I'll keep pushing myself hard. ;D
Title: Re: How do I do it?
Post by: IRI5HJ4CK on March 05, 2009, 19:52:03: Busy life Terry :lol: A bit different from my usual free day's :lol: Longest trip for me is going out on the boat for a few hours, or spending some time at the lake with Hibernia :lol:

Was walking into town today, and I saw this young guy playing the accordion, so I stopped and we talked for a while, so I'm going into town tomorrow with my accordion to meet him, play a few tunes together at the pub down the road (Its a family bar :lol: Although, if you were in Ireland, that wouldn't matter :lol:).

Nice to see that you keep your spirits high with Diabetes, not sure how I would handle it if I were to be diagnosed with something like that! I guess the only thing you can do is keep going! and good for you!

Jack.

At least we speak the same language here ;). My wife refuses to watch Taggart because she can't always understand what they're saying ;D

Make sure you get some barramundi on your plate while you're here... the wild-caught stuff. It's just superb.

PS although I am as southern English as it's possible to be, I understand every word that Rab C Nesbitt says!

The classic barra dish is a thick oven-baked or grilled fillet served with chips, tartare sauce and salad. Perhaps if you ask them to give you extra salad instead of chips, and go easy on the tartare sauce? Goes well with a quality lager like Crown or Cascade, or for something really nice, a Barefoot Radler http://www.barefootbrewers.com.au/ (http://www.barefootbrewers.com.au/)

Lunch time here, and now I'm starving... wonder if the staff canteen has got any barra on the menu :evil: ::) Doubt it :(

Enjoy your dinner.
