Re: The new Photo Competition
I think it would have upped the picture input, if that had been the prize.

Perhaps somewhere with golden sands, sun and a treasure maps to discover a pirates hidden silver.
Ahhh, gold and silver, what a wonderful subject to return to.
I haven't entered yet, I've got neither about my person.

Well now you mention it................why havent you entered, I cant belive you havent a camera, either a camera or one on your phone, if you havent either then a pencil scetch would suffice.

Inspiration is harder to come by than either gold or silver! You could always buy a packet of Wrigley's spearmint gum in the meantime and take a snap of one of the little silver-coloured strips -then eat the stuff -something to chew on as you free your mind and look for that "je ne sais qua" which is obviously missing to your artistic soul -as an alternative I can recommend a toffee penny, which is wrapped in gold -my favourite out of a tin of Quality Street!

Re: The new Photo Competition
From now on I will look to Davemac for inspiration I've entered now, so he can stop nagging.

Mine too - unfortunately I have a tin of Roses here, not Quality Street - but I can get them when I go to the hosp - they have so many sweeties given to them they just leave them out on the reception desk for folks to help themselves!

Re: The new Photo Competition
It could be a brass door knocker...it only has to look like gold or silver.

You are mixing up nagging with friendly badgering (not the digging in the wood type), you don't have to have gold or silver, people can give them to you. Gold can be the golden smile of a friend or the silver hair of a relative, or even the contents of a bag of chips, a golden piece of potato, right thats all the inspiration for one day.
So next I want to see an old friend, smiling, with a chip in her hair.

Gowd sterrrruth! don't go daft I'm taking a picture not writing a novel.
I can offer a piccy of an old friend with an axe in her head, it's in black and white, (which makes it sort of silvery), I had to develop it myself couldn't trust sending it to a chemists at the time, had digital been introduced a few years earlier I could have made it a career, but as it was I went for the electric shock treatment, so I'm all right N.. OW!
