How on earth have fans learnt to type, let alone string together coherent sentences? I thought they were only good at moving air about on hot days.

I'm not sure whether fans have eyes, but I'll assume it can read this, so er...

Looks like they've found some sedative that works, then Flib. Hoorah.

Very nice tones, young man....poetic tones, in keeping with the mood. I see you're finding your way round the 5D ok! Try not to upset Matron, so that she ends up confiscating it...

Oh yeah, they work alright. Only slight niggle is that they make my nostrils glow. Normally not a problem, but when you're trying to get to sleep you have to plunge your nose deep into the pillow to try to get the light levels more suitable for slumber. And of course, then it's tricky to breathe.

Loving the 5D, haven't had much time to play with it.

Good Heavens! Those could be Matron's feet! :worried: Fibbs may have gotten hold of the sedatives and used them on Matron. Are the Llams still watching/ Sound the alarm!!

Muehahahahahahahaha

To be continued...

Fond regards,

Endre

Oh yes, Fibbs - you did another fantastic job with lighting and photographing Matron's feet. Mildred and George would be proud, not to mention Mrs. Fibble.

Matron's feet are webbed, these are clearly mine. Surely the llamas would have told you that...

Ha! You didn't think I'd know about your "secret" talks with my attack llama force. It can't be a coincidence that half of them are now practicing the violin in their lunch break... You are weak in the ways of llama conversing...

They are fiercely loyal. Watch the skies. We shall attack when you least expect...


MUHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHA [By far the best evil laugh ever, volume 3]

Great shot, like the depth, maybe all of the left foot would have been an alternative, did they know you were taking it or did you catch them unaware?

It's hard to sneak up on yourself - and believe me I've tried.

I can almost do it if I spin reeeeaaaallly quickly on the spot, but if I go too quickly, I get dizzy, fall over, and then realise I was trying to sneak up on myself. I reckon if half way around, I suddenly switched direction, that'd really fox me and I'd be certain to succeed.

Lemme give that a try...


*sound of rapid flailing around of arms and torso*

*sound of glass smashing*

*sound of Flibble falling out of window to his certain death*

*sound of Flibble landing safely on a large expanse of superbly soft cultivated babies' bums*


Nope. That didn't work.

*Sigh*

Good thing the babies bum thing worked though.

Oh, pshaw and piffle, Fibbs! Who do you think has been coaching the Llamas on their violin practice You underestimate me, my nefarious friend. I speak fluent Llameese as well as the related dilacts of the alpaca, guanaco, and vicuna. You don't suppose that "Barking Llama Incident" brought on by an ovedoes of "Rubbish Pills" left me with no aftereffects, do you? How naieve. Not to worry... THEY are watching!

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! (Volume level 4).

My feet sometimes fall asleep independently of the rest of me. It looks as if that may have happened to you. Can't tell from the context just where they may have ended up, so maybe you should just crop out that distracting object in the upper right.
Yes, if your feet are ready to dream on their own, they should be seen on their own. Crop to a square. That would be splendid.

Yes to square crop. Nicely done, especially since I gather they are your own!

Whythankyouverymuch. Lighting was via window. Shot was where my feet landed after 10 seconds. I prefer rare.

Your feet do look as though they have walked miles and are in for a well deserved rest . Love the lighting and the tones, brings out the snugasabuginarug feeling.

Well, I did suspect it was you coaching them, but when they started chanting Endre, Endre, Endre during the chorus I have to admit it had me back to square one. It took a further 4 weeks before I clicked that the Endre chanting might actually be you. Darn my faulty wily instincts.

Anyway.. having worked out that you were the secret violin teacher your plans to doublebubble bluff me were somewhat transparent. I fear it may be you that the llamas are double crossing, I think I'm being tripple crossed which er...

I have no idea anymore.

Matron, can I have a sticky pill?

I did try the crop, but felt that it lacked context a bit.

You thinky? You thinky notty?

Well, technically they are my own feet, pair 437 to be precise. My mother always told me to have a pair of feet for every ocassion, so I've been collecting them for years. This is pair 291. Snap on-able, very comfy, not good in high heels.

I once walked to the end of the road, I guess that qualifies as a long way.

Snugasabuginarug... isn't that Endre's area of experise?
