I'm working in my studio.......doors/windows open......lovely breeze coming in........and have the Federer/Haas match on from wimbledon

Yes,Dickie..... he is a strange beast!......likeable though........."cheap as chips"....his saying... is'nt it?...............and looks like he's been 'tangoed'

hello yogi, and thanks for dropping by!

it wasn't the orange guy, it was the Quentin Crisp lookalike.. he was even scarier!

what do you do it your studio?

[leggysonogod]

sick ?
remarkably agile on the pc today sara : o)

[Claud.Butler]

He's also a convicted fraudster. He's served time as a guest of HM for conning an elderly person out of a considerable amount of money.
If his victim hasn't gone to the Real Deal room in the sky it must be galling for them to watch a crook prosper.

[squarebear]

I know the guy you mean! He makes Julian Clary look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I had to look twice when I first saw him to see if it was a man or not.

[sara3]

Claud.. Dickinson or the other chap?

Leg, I've had an op but you'll be glad to hear it hasn't affected my typing skills!

[Claud.Butler]

My last post refers to the Tangoed one, not the Quentin Crisp look-alike.
I wouldn't want to traduce an innocent chap.

[sara3]

squarebear knows who I meant!!

[sara3]

traduce?

Sara goes for the dictionary....

[Claud.Butler]

And why would anyone be watching anything other than the tennis today?

[squarebear]

lol yes. I was watching this down the pub a few weeks ago and nearly choked on my pint when he minced in on the telly.

I have never seen anything like it in my life.

[sara3]

wow, great word, Claud.. I'll use that if you don't mind ;o)

I had a car called Claude once...

[sara3]

lol, squarebear!

Claud.. I can't pretend I'm very interested in the tennis, and I refuse to apologise :o)

[Claud.Butler]

This car....was it always back-firing and leaking around the sills?
Might have been me in a previous incarnation :-)

[yogi.bear]

'i really wanna see those fingers'.............lol. legless

you're nimble little fingers are'nt sick, are they, sara?.....just the rest of you!

I download, mix, choose and prepare sets for my upcoming gigs there.......................
as you probably thought i was a painter!
............................though
i'm quite a good one actually, but slow apparently!............................slow is also another name for being a perfectionist!..............lol

love the bear xx

[Claud.Butler]

Sara, 'never apologise, never explain', was a piece of advice given to me that has seved well over the years.

About half way down:

Ian Towning
A one-time drag queen, Ian started trading from a market stall. Today he owns an entire antiques arcade on the King's Road

[yogi.bear]

Do you know him, squarebear?

I have seen Michael Hogben a lot around my area........last time was at a petrol station near Worthing............we were on opposite sides of the pumps filling up......had a chat and continued into the kiosk, where you pay.......a really nice down to earth bloke.
(Had his name and business printed on his beautiful car!)

[Claud.Butler]

Think what he might have done if he'd opened a stall on Queensway...
