I intend this thread to be for personal announcements... Anyone and everyone -- please feel free to use it. :drunk:

My announcement (apart from the above) is that I've just added an extra album to my profile -- stuffed with a dozen photos taken today. :rolleyes:
 
I like the new pictures Odalisque!! Thanks for sharing your fun side with us. It is always interesting to see the faces of our members.
 
I don't know what I was expecting but for some reason Jezetha I did not picture you as looking like that. You are younger than I thought!!! Thanks for sharing your pics with us!!!
 
I don't know whether any others of you do this, but I keep certain vegetables in the fridge (such as lettuce and celery) standing in a little water. It helps to preserve them -- a bit like putting flowers in water. Mugs that have lost their handles are better for this purpose (vegetable vases) than ones that still have their handles -- they use less fridge space. One of the handleless cups was (when new) a gift from a now-dead friend. This particular mug had also lost a V-shape chunk from its rim, it would probably have been binned long ago, but for its assocaition with a dead friend. But last night, washing the dishes, I cut my hand on the sharp V-shaped bite from the rim. Belatedly, I viewed the object as a hazard, and binned it. This has left me wondering about the things I keep and the things I throw away. :(
 
Odalisque I hope the cut was not a bad one!!! My mom cut her finger washing a glass and had to have stitches put it:eek: I tend to keep too much and my husband is constantly throwing stuff away on me!!!!
 
I hate it when I accumulate things I do not use, so, on a regular basis, I get rid of them. I give them to my mum (who gives them to associations for poor people-even if i wouldn't be too sure about that- :mad:) or i sell them at flea markets, which is fun when you make a stand with friends. It's funny to see people's reactions to some objects! The only "objects" i keep collecting is books, i do not even collect records any longer. I do not like things when they are not useful and I don't feel any bond to them.
 
collections >books and art stuff mainly with dedications by friends...for the rest i'm with Steve Dakorte, i just need a pc...at least on a personal collection level, i'm not talking about other delights...
 
I painted a pack of tarot cards in the 70s. Today, I scanned the first of them (the suit of cups) at work. I've downloaded the scans into an album. :)

I vividly remember first seeing Odalisque's amazing cards in the flesh.

Ewww. He made his cards out of flesh?

Seriously, thats pretty cool. I once dreamt I found a pack of Tarots in a rummage sale. They were quite old, and had several extra trumps and suits. I can vividly recall these: The Reflection, the Bonefire, and the Ace of Marvels. Too bad my artistic skills are as limited as my linguistic ones...Kevin or Pet, I give you permission to telepathically download and paint these, if you wish.

Thank you for your kind comments. If I can get away with putting the scanner at work to more unauthorised use ;), I'll post more of the cards.
 
After gross misappropriation of my working hours today, :D I believe that the entire pack of 78 cards is now posted to the TLO. Enjoy! :drunk:

Congratuations on achieving that (surreptitiously)!

These cards are truly magnificent. Everyone should view them on your album.

I remember you doing these in the seventies.
