Picture of Ishie

Hi Guys,

I hate pictures, so take it for whatever is worth



My little doggy - she passed away in April after nearly 14 years with us -- we buried her at Pet Cemetery under a huge oak tree. Her name was Mickey!



Ishie

Lorin and family!

Tomorrow I am going to show my wife -- I know she's going to love to see the picture of your two girls!!!! May God bless them, always!!!!



We're planning to have more children, so I might have 2 girls by this time next year!!



Ishie

Hi Guys.
Nice Photographs

Lorin: Kay (My other half) has asked me to tell you "You have very beautiful Daughters", I definitely agree with her.

Ish, Sorry about Mickey, I have two black Labradors myself 11 & 8 years old. My last dog reached the grand old age of 16. As you can probably guess. I'm a dog lover.

Here's my humble contribution:-


Kay, Myself and Grandchildren. Four are not included due to childhood illnesses at the time of the Photo-shoot.





The Tribe: Taken at Martin's Wedding (Royal Marine) this July (2008). The same four grandchildren are missing as it was the same week we had the Photo-shoot. Excuse the Welsh-Kilts, Family tradition.
You can also see the two original Welsh Dragons, My Mrs and my dear Mother-in-Law. LOL with a big grin.



Nice post Ish, thanks in advance for allowing us all to share it.
Cheers
Pete.

Hi Guys

@Lorins, my wife loved the photo of your girls!!!!

@Pete, wow ... they are great photos ... the child sitting on Kay's lap looks cute ... big eyes and wild hair!! Congrats to Martin on his wedding this year. I've been worried 10 years myself! Wife and I met in 1991 ... I am sure him wify is just worried ... hopefully she keeps her chin up until his tour is over!!

Hey fellas,

Snipped.

PS. Forgot a family member Bear my dog pal, he's an 11 year old Alaskan Malamute, has bad arthritis, but still manages to jump the bones of my moms female mountain dog!
Did I mention he's a 105 pound teddy bear!

Good Boy Bear

Hi Lorin,
About Bear. You may know this, but if not:- Forget the expensive Vet bills, my oldest dog, Sabre, also has Arthritis in the back legs. I give both my dogs each, one Cod Liver-Oil-Capsule a day, the type you buy for us humans.
It has made a vast difference in his mobility, he runs around like a puppy. When my Vet asked about the improvement, I simply told him. He's now added this to his recommendations. I have done this for years, although if Bare is anything like my two, you'll have a job getting him to swallow it whole.
Ish;
The one you mentioned, sitting on Kay's lap: Apart from being our youngest he's a little Terror, we see him every day and he gets us into fits of laughter by his antics.
Anna (Martin's wife) is like the rest of us, worried but getting on with things. Fortunately, they didn't opt for the married quarter option in Plymouth, but decided to keep their home going in Swansea. So we see her daily.
Both:
Thanks for the comments.
We are lucky, we see the boys, their partners, and of course the grand-children every-day. Our house is never empty, and Kay or myself wouldn't have it any other way. It helps keep us young, at least in spirit. Its why I work on the computer into the early hours.

Off Topic: Finished the base (Lower floor) of the 'Dolls House', taking some time-out waiting for the glue to dry.

Cheers
Pete

I'll throw one of me in there.



OK, no I'm not Darth Vader's apprentice here is me for real.



Cheers,
Adam

@Pete, Great minds think alike, I buy herring oil and put it on his food twice a day, (will keep the cod liver capsules in mind though, maybe the same idea) he stays outside all year round, hates the indoors, he sometimes digs a hole in the snow and lays in it in a storm, before anyone thinks I'm nutz he does have a doghouse with a heated floor if he should want to curl up somewhere warm. These dogs love the snow...

Thanks for the tip good buddy!

@Adam, Welcome to the darkside, use the force! I like Star Wars too!

Cheers,

Lorin

Hi Lorin,
Yup!! I guess herring oil would be exactly the same. Just a little antidote, I also have arthritis, so Kay always buys a large tub of capsules for the dogs and myself to share, and she makes a big joke about it . Although its started to creep up on her lately, she'll need an even bigger tub
Talking about snow. its started here, point of interest, did you know that Hudson Bay is roughly on the same Latitude as Swansea Bay, its only the gulf stream that keeps my city & bay slightly warmer. Its still wrap up time though.
Note to our friend Ishie::: Snow:: White stuff that comes from the sky and reflects the heat back up, so its ruddy freezing. .

Like Bear, my two love the stuff. Hate fireworks though. Guy Forks night (A UK celebration) is a nightmare trying to keep them calm.

HI Adam,
"Make it So"; Yup I'm a Trekkie, Next Generation the best.
Liked Star-Wars also.
Did you know that the series was based on an very old Fable, About Castor and Pollux, twins in classical mythology: Both mentioned in Greek and Roman documents. They were the twin sons of Leda and the brothers of Helen of Troy and Clytemnestra.
Darth Vader's character was based on Leda and of course the twins were, Princess Lila and our hero.
Today, Castor and Pollux are twin stars in the constellation Gemini. Extremely bright and can easily be seen with the naked eye.
Off Topic: I haven't forgot your PM, I'll get back to you soon on that.

Cheers Both
Pete. EDIT:::: Sorry Lorin. That should read Longitude, Latitude is pole to pole.

Bear doesn't like fireworks either and worst yet it's hunting season and he goes crazy at distant gunshots.

We are surrounded by forest, have to really keep your head down around here right now!

Lorin

Some nice pics, the better halves are lovely too. I would post a pic of me but I wouldn't want to damage the forums in any way.

Hi Col

Don't be shy dear friend .... it's nice to see the faces of good friends!!

Ishie

Wow finally a glimpse of Ishie. Once I figure out how to post photos I'll add one of myself and more importantly my newest creations.

Hi Rich,

Posting pictures are quiet easy ... open an account with photo bucket or image shack. Upload photo there, and then copy and paste the URL link here!

Welcome aboard my friend!!!
Ishie

I got an e-mail from Servimg.com saying I have an account on that. Is that a legitimate service? I used to have an image shack account (and maybe still do) so I might try that. Either way I'll have something up in the next week or so.

Hi Rich,

If yo urea not sure or recall I suggest you ignored it.

Image shack should still have your account ... just log in and it should be there!!

Here's a picture of me from Maymont, Richmond, Virginia

Nice looking picture Rich ....
Always good to see the picture I talked with via internet!!!

Ishie

Hi Richo,

Which one is you !!!! .

Serious :: You remind me of someone I've seen on TV, or the big screen, can't put a name yet. Anyone else know who I mean?

Cheers
Pete.
PS :: I'll be awake for hours trying to remember who I'm thinking of

Back in High School my nickname was Leonard Nimoy. I've also been referred to as Arvid from Head of the Class and Harrison Ford.
