Cute pics, Brinn - all of them. I especially like the one with you and Kath, you look awfully funny.

Ha, so at last shown to the wide public. But nice pics, Brinn! The ice bar one seems probably the funniest to me - it looks like you two are in your own kitchen in your house on the North Pole or something

Lovely pictures of lovely people - I also make the observation that you, Brinniel, are the shortest in each pic.

It might be for that tipsyness (tipsiness? is that a word? and if it is, how is it spelled? spelt? aaargh, English is not my strongest point tonight, it seems) Brinn mentioned. But you look very cute too, maybe it's the perspective - you look very small and besides you look genuinely happy/ be enjoying yourselves, and that tends to make people look cute (and funny ).

I think you can have tipsyness (and it would be spelt with the y). Haha, maybe you're right. We were having a good time!

The pic is funny because, when you look at the Barrow-Downs photo page, in the thumbnail, it doesn't show Brinn & Kath, but the two randoms in the background.

I loathe the picture that's up of me... I think it may be close to three years old, too, so it needs to go. But what to replace it with. Could go for realistic or artsy(er).

Has that picture made it into the Downer yet?

It was balmy that day. It was Easter, and we'd had a blizzard on Good Friday, but in true Wisconsin fashion it was warm enough for short sleeves just a mere two days down the line.

Haha know the feeling. I've walked around in December with flipflops before. Nice pics by the way, Di. My avatar is my picture because I'm too lazy to do anything else. And I'm not at all photogenic, so I generally hate pictures.

So...I finally figured out why McCaber's photo feels so familiar. Does anybody watch Heroes?

Lovely picture, Hookbill! But I thought TARDIS was red... but I have not watched Dr. Who in a long time... I could be mistaken.

Nope. The TARDIS is definitely blue. "Big Blue Box" and that sort of stuff.

By the way Brinn, that picture in the 'Downer reminded me, but in that one with Rune you do look ridiculously pleased to be there. I'm not sure if it's the company or the alcohol though.

Geez, all you people are giving the impression that I'm some sort of alcoholic. My name is Brinniel and I've been sober for 38 days. (Okay, I'm shutting up now at the risk of chatting way more than I should be...)

Here's a picture of me doing the 'Bob Dylan' thing at a local pub. Hmmm...no, actually, it was more likely a blues number (perhaps John Mayall's Room to Move), as I'm playing the harp through a Sure Green Bullet (the round, green mic to the right in the pic), which, when fed through an old tube amp, gives a wonderfully distorted, fuzzy sound.

Wow, you're a musician! Do you really play all those instruments that are hooked up to you?

Yes, I play multiple instruments, but rely mainly on guitar and harmonica. Actually, if you could see the floor at my feet, you'd also notice six or seven foot pedals as well (for various sound effects). It's all rather electronically mesmerizing. I guess I'm just lucky they haven't figured out a way to hook me up intravenously while playing.

I don't know if this will work or not (you might have to have a Facebook), but I uploaded some pictures onto Facebook, they are too big to put on the Downs...

You cannot include too big files in your post, but you can email the pic to Volo, who will put it on the photo page.
