Chicken With A Banjo Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 I suspect the hippos displayed more originality of thought. Does anyone know the story behind the hippos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudders Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 Hi dude, I have absolutely no idea what this is about, so this is great muppet show material. +1 reputations point. Is this some decorations in your hood? If so post pictures for extra reps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 I googled 'lordshill hippos' and the electoral register came up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stick men can do one for all I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mulletsaint Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 I believe some concrete climbing hippos have been slaughtered outside Lordshill Sainsburys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudders Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 In fact if you could do a drawing with felt tip pens & then also post a photo that'd be proper muppet show style. I'd lend you my felts but Bearsy 'borrowed' them & never gave them back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mulletsaint Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 Here's a link to the real photo (unfortunately it's rather tightly cropped). Shows some of the wall murals that have gone up in the area recently. http://blog.vandalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/P1090688.jpg Unfortunately I don't have one of those flash DSLR's like Lazlo78. It'll take me a while to get the film developed and then scanned in, but I'll let you see it when it's done. Plus it'll shoot better in the morning light tomorrow.

Spudders Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 I like that bumble bee mullets, that's better than the graffiti I see around London which usually looks like it was done in the dark, you must live in a posh graffiti area! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulletsaint Posted 15 July, 2013 Share Posted 15 July, 2013 (edited) I like that bumble bee mullets, that's better than the graffiti I see around London which usually looks like it was done in the dark, you must live in a posh graffiti area! I believe they call it gentrification. Unfortunately part of the downside of ousting the riff-raff is you can't afford to upsize without moving where they've been ousted to. Unfortunately we do also have a few stinkers. There's a local chap who does awful gawdy new age stuff that looks like it should be on an Ozric Tentacles album cover.

mulletsaint Posted 16 July, 2013 Share Posted 16 July, 2013 Here's the promised photo of the Tea Bee taken on my old film SLR. I think you can see the quality that film offers over digital quite clearly. And of course it had to be in black and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudders Posted 16 July, 2013 Share Posted 16 July, 2013 Isn't that just the same photo you posted last night Mullets, but without the close cropping, you've just then converted it to black & white. That's just lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just lazy. How dare you. The angle's not even the same. The one I posted last night was taken from the pub car park looking up. For this one I had to stand right across the road to get it all in. Not to mention the long wait for all the traffic to go past so as not to ruin the composition.

They're the exact same photo, it's clear for everyone to see! I don't believe this. I had to take a massive detour today to take this. I wasn't even going to that end of Lordship Lane. I had to lug a load of stuff from the DIY shop, the butchers and the fishmongers, along with my SLR all the way up the hill. Next time I won't bother. It's funny how you're only trying to discredit me since Glasgow threw an eppy my way. You're not him are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 17 July, 2013 Share Posted 17 July, 2013 The rhinos are fcking sht. Berlin had bears (oh the irony) in 2006, even bloody Newport, that trailblazer of culture, had dragons about 2 years ago. And of course, there were the Painted Cow Saints fans back in the the Saints Forever days, so we're kinda spoofing ourselves 10 years ago anyway, right ? As I was saying, utter pointless populist shart for the interminably dull. And I say that as someone who just added the 11th tier of Welsh football to FM13.
