I take very few photos...........as 99% turn out to be shite!

No David Bailey me!?

Most of the pics I had from the 70's got torn up by my first wife!

Just before she threw all my clothes out in the street!

Poor Mucho. All uploaded and not one hotlinked to a picture hosting site. That's gonna cost him a few pennies in storage from now and into perpetuity. Especially on his new site with blisteringly fast and expensive SSD storage.

Talk about driving a pensioner into penuary. I have about 20 TB of pics. That'll keep you fellows browsing for hours and suck his bandwidth quota dry too.

Honestly Mucho, where do you find the dregs and why dont you teach them to hug trees n shit. I'd be throwing a wobbly for sure.

I probably have around 1.2TB of free space on this server Bruce.....so no issue.

We probably have far more available resources than any other forum out there. And if we ever need more then it's offset against Tax.

And of course all the other forums put out the begging bowl to users.....I've never done that. Even when I was paying every month myself.

MB stayed on my server FOC for some years even after I left........until the point the software was totally out of date and a security risk.

Have you got a photo of that.? ?

I was more interested in grabbing my clothes before they blew up the street rather than thinking of photo opportunities Clive! :classic_laugh:

I lost the sleeve inner cover from a 12 inch record when it got torn up by a girlfriend in a temper. It was a band called McCoy, some bald bloke out of another band (Gillan, Samson) was in it, they only ever made one album. A few really good songs on there. The same girl also threw one of my audio tapes out of a car window as we drove along.

John McCoy......scary looking guy wasn't he?

I had a girlfriend (the crazy one who stabbed me) throw a complete cassette recorder out of a car window.

She said she did it because she didn't like Deep Purple! :classic_wacko:

Unhappy car, just after I ran over a broken engine's oil and bounced it off a concrete wall at around 120kmh. Brother was a passenger on the impact side.

The 1150 on Azambuja, they fill the streets with sand so that the bulls don't slip on the cloblestones for Feira de Maio, when they spend a week doing that crap. The red boards are for protection of windows a front doors. It's like arriving in a cowboy town.
