It certainly looks too warm to be the UK and recent. The architecture looks a bit furrin too but my eyesight isn't good enough now to be certain.

Why thanks. And yes it is from our summer holiday last year.

Indeed. We spent our summer in the UK this year ...

But last year, we spent a delightful two weeks staying in a villa in Minorca. The photo is from a boat trip which we took around Mahon harbour.

How public spirited of you.... and since you have school age children I assume it wasn't the insanely hot Wimbledon fortnight which was about the only time we actually saw the sun.......

I spent my student summers working in the local Tourist Office ... fortunately we did actually have summers then since the "Places for Rainy days list" was a bit short....

The Only Real Estel has just left Hobbiton.
Pipe Why not?

Been awhile since I've been able to be involved much but why not at least post a semi-updated picture, right?


Only now I typically rock a 1-2 inch beard most of the time so that actually adds another few years to the look, but you get the idea...


Cheers,

Estel





P.S. Thanks Hookbill for the quick help

I don't think they update the main thread site anymore... well at least not since sometime in 2008.

*raising eyebrow*

The Only Real Estel is hot, ya'll.

(Leave it to me to be classy about it, of course)

For those of you who are, for some reason, not friends with me on Facebook, here's probably the latest decent picture made of me, on a train to Moscow, next to my lovely cousin (I'm the blonde):



(Gah, why does Wordpress let you scale images & save, and then does not reflect the scaling? Bad Wordpress, very bad)
