Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) The postman came calling, while I was at work. He delivered what can be aptly described as a massive and beautiful box of my favourite things! I am so thankful and honoured to know and be friends with such a generous and wonderful guy! Some day, I intend to meet you in person, in Southern California, my friend!! I have surprises in store for you too! I can't wait to send them across and for you to receive them!!

Strider Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 ^^^ Turning another friend on to the musicals of Jacques Demy made me happy today. "Umbrellas of Cherbourg" and "The Young Girls of Rochefort" are essential for any lovers of musicals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I saw her she was wearing this short dress and these amazing boots. I was down in the front and I could see all the way to Valhalla. Shirley Manson of Garbage also used to give the punters down front such lovely views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigled Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 You are a genuine Frapper i can tell. Because Frappers also like Garbage, Kate Bush and Bjork. I must admit, I am not massive on the latter. I have seen Frapp once. At Manchester academy in 2010. It was amazing. Some warm-up dates have been arranged, London, Oxford, Cambridge and Sheffield. Mrs says no. Wait for a Manchester date. So that is that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have loads of negs which i don't know what they are and would love to put them through a machine and have a look. Any help would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have loads of negs which i don't know what they are and would love to put them through a machine and have a look. Any help would be great Yes, it's a flatbed scanner which has holders for 35mm and 120 film. It was $183.00. I got it mainly for my black & white negatives. It will scan color negs, slides and documents. I am still getting the hang of it and the ones I've scanned look great so far. Now I have to figure out how to save them. I called Canon and they are good at helping out. I know I'll have to call them again. Once you scan them you get a positive (preview) showing thumbnails and you can then edit, adjust brightness, contrast, color, etc. I was never able to get the great tone and clarity in a conventional darkroom as I am with digital editing, but I will keep shooting film. Tri-X is my favorite. PM me if you need more info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dislike drinking Coca Cola too, CP, but I don't think I should ever mention that during my various conference calls to the director of Coca Cola in Atlanta!

Yes, eating in New Orleans is a must. Whether you are hungry or not. I have my favorites, but can't say I've ever had a bad meal in NOLA.

Stryder1978 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Watching the liberal snowflakes whining about Trump's choice for the Supreme Court. If he had chosen a black, trans-gendered, Muslim Syrian refugee who had 50 abortions, they'd still whine and cry about the pick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillumpuffer Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Racist, homophobic, bigot. You seem to have dragged your right wing political views on a thread that generally makes people happy. For once and for all keep your opinions and, may I say, offensive political views to yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
