Curious. Of the ACTIVE membership who has never

Me. I don't know how.

Yes I know instructions have been posted, but, like Facebook, I simply can't get to grips with it!
 

I don't need to post a photo avatar of myself, my avatar I use says it all about me....................a perfect English rose.:wink1::lol1:
 

I would love to but working for the federal government has prohibited me from showing too much information about myself, maybe in a few more years...
 
I go everyday to another forum I’ve been a member of for several years. There are no avatars, and no pictures are posted. We can post links (to articles, etc.). I’ve always enjoyed that forum and I’ve never known of anyone to express the desire to see a photo or find out personal information about other members. Of course, members can PM each other (on that forum) and provide email addys and share whatever they want, but while seeing photos might be enjoyable it’s not necessary to have avatar photos in order for a forum to function smoothly.

As Holly said, people sometimes post pictures which are actually of other people…same with pictures of houses, cars, etc. (Same applies to profiles...it's just what someone chooses to type.) Some don’t want to post pictures because they can be used by loonies/’nutters’ :laugh: to try to dig up information about a person and cause trouble. Photos can be fun, but I say proceed with caution.
 
AZ, does this mean I'm a poster girl?

I wanted to go to the thread with pictures of our homes and post pix of my tiny space...and can't find the pix! Pix of everything under the sun but can't find my little home:(
 
Okay....back to behaving.

Georgia, nice picture! I don't know why, but I expected you to be stern looking, and heavyset. (no offense)......I need your haircut, I'm getting my split ends trimmed later this week. :)
 
apple, I used to be "heavyset"...actually, I was morbidly obese. Quit weighing myself when I got past the 200 mark on the scale. After 1000 calories a day (makes you real conscious of making sure that what you put in your stomach has actual nutrition value) for a long, long time, I lost about 125 lbs. That was in 1974. Gained a little back here and there over the years, and when my Joe died, I weighed about 140 or thereabouts. I lost 30 lbs within the first two or three months and never gained it back. I don't recommend the grief diet. Stern? Me? LOL I only do stern when I'm at the dinner table with the g'kids and they're acting like two-year-olds and/or when they're whining. Then I do stern:mad: real good!

My haircut. LOL I've been wearing it short...more or less like it is now...since I was 15. My mother used to tell me that my hair looked like a thatched roof.

To try and get this thread back on topic.
How about this photo of my lovely Wife and I signing the Marriage register 19 years ago? :D

Yes. She is lovely, Boozer, and you both look suitably happy. I don't know whether you're Welsh or not, but you both look so classically English. You could have stepped out of one of those UK shows I so enjoy on TV.

Thank you for your kind words there Underdock1.
My Wife and I are English.
I was born in Liverpool,and my Wife was born in London.
She is my third Wife, and it has been third time lucky for me.
And yes, we are VERY happy thank you.:)

We got married in Conwy (North Wales) though. ;)
 
Yep. English genes for sure.

So are mine actually, from Devon and Dorset, but my spirit has migrated to OZ.
The ancestors left England from 1863

This photo was taken last December. Since then I've lost 7 kg to assist recovery from my hip replacement.
