   Hands down for me. I'm still waiting to see my steering wheel picture appear on this wonderful site. I did take a picture of the LH front door pillar, if you'd prefer that!

    Hi Hi Hi Eddie and Happy Friday people.

    Ridiculously happy, can鈥檛 stop smiling. Loved the Window on the World idea. Let's do it all again next Tuesday.

    I spent last night with a load of French people drinking Beaujolais, their accents sound so put on it鈥檚 really funny. I had a row about the fact that the French have four different names for a fillet, a French guy said they didn鈥檛 and he was a chef but he was 100% wrong. Yeeeeeees ! Filet mignon, cote du boeuf, chateaubriand and I can鈥檛 remember the other one. Off to see James Bond this eve and then cooking on gas, the whole weekend, gonna try and master Heston鈥檚 24 hour steak.
    Be lucky people, must dash, I have to figure out whether to sacrifice my spare room to make way for a bigger kitchen. I've sent Ed my photo of the kitchen - great idea.
    I think it has to be done, cooking is becoming my life. I hope you all have a bloody fantastic weekend, you deserve it.

    P.S. I asked a French guy to put togezer a sentence with the words green, pink and yellow in it, he said,
    鈥淶ees morning zee phone went green green, so I pink it up and said yellow.鈥�

    Ha ha ha ha ha.

    picture number 65

    Michel Conrad
    A picture of my world at 5pm for the last 4 months and still a few more months to go!
    The picture shows my work reproducing an ancient Roman mosaic of Medusa ~ a picture of the original was generously offered to me by the curator of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston USA.
    I鈥檓 a regular listener to all the daily programs from Radio 4 via the internet ~ a creative help to my work.
    More information can be found at www.hand-mosaics.com ~ hope you enjoy it!

    picture number 72

    Roberto C. Alvarez-Galloso
    More photos of Christmas in Miami Florida at different days at 5:00PM Miami Time. This time there are stores with Frosty the Snowman with Frosty Jr., my office with Christmas Decorations and Santa Claus in a store

    picture number 80

    Rufus A. Bairzarce (pronounced Buyers ar chay, obviously)
    I've been a listener since the days of His Breathlessness, William Hardcastle.
    Usually, I'd have been looking at a p.c. monitor surmounted by Snoopy and La-La but today I had a day off work to contemplate doing some jobs around the house.
    By 5.00 pm I had set to work on adjusting my bicycle front brake.

    Robbie Do comes out as Cutie Chocolate - I'm not having that.

    My real name though comes out as Lucky Horny. If it's a prediction, I'm much happier.

    Helen Sparkles - are we related?

    Who was it asked me about the picture of Penrith Station on the website?

    Well, the webmeister has put in an unscheduled appearance and proffers the following reply:

    'To the best of my knowledge, it's genuine, but I didn't take it - as usual I found in on t'interweb.
    
    'So your answer will have to be "We don't know, we just thought it was funny".'

    It may have been stolen since it was taken, Lucky Horny ... but even if so, it was there long enough to be snapped and put on the interweb for us to find!

    How's the writing project coming along? You've been fairly quiet today so either you're working on it .. or you're working.
