On Trying to Recreate the Party Poppers Being Popped in Weddings on 10th June 2005

Very poor co-ordination indeed!

And the skin tone too :

She looks jaundiced

Suggestion :

I think that Davíðssálmur probably means David's Psalm i.e. the passage is most likely from verse 2 of Psalm 8.

That verse reads: "O Lord, our Lord, how maj… -more-

A fine man :

In the film, he tends to run around in open shirts, which are quite often wet.

On Ivy from Wetherby Mews in England on 31st October 2002
Brilliant Colour :

I know the red of the ivy looks too good to be true – a fantasy red, almost – but I was there when Ash took the picture and it really was that amazing

Eh? :

"fancy-opants" – is that a special irish model of digital camera? :P

On Denbies in Weddings on 2nd May 2002
It's a Vineyard :

The largest one in England, apparently. Jolly nice wine, too.

On Bloomingdales in United States of America on 15th April 2002

Perhaps it should read "You are in E-town", possibly alluding to an internet initiative. But I prefer Urine Town!

On Sony Woman in Comedy on 23rd February 2002
Not Likely :

I doubt that there is a "Sony Man" in existence. What woman would take the time and effort to produce it? That's the sort of sad thing that only blokes do.

On Us at the pub in Ski on 4th February 2002

Is this a self portrait or are you just about to spew all over the photographer?

On Look at the hair.. I think it should be illegal to fly like this.. in My trip Sept 27th - Oct 8th on 1st February 2002
No Way! :

Hey, they're Phildo's trademark shades – they're not in the least bit dodgy!

On Stavros the curious cat in Sara & Jax do Lesbos on 12th December 2001
Cat Confusion :

Is Stavros a particularly common cat name? The cat in this picture looks quite different from the one in the previous picture being held by Sara.

On A Bird in the Bush in Comedy on 7th December 2001
It's all over! :

The Guardian have published the winning captions at: http://www.guardian.co.uk/bush/graphic/0,7367,602463,00.html

On A license plate for Marcus in New Zealand 2001 on 20th November 2001
Phew! Thanks for clearing that one up :

I'm glad you're refering to biscuits and not an alternate definition of the word jaffa. At least, I think you are…I'm very, very disturbed if you're not…

Prizes Galore! :

Incidentally, the Guardian are running a caption competition for this photo. Deadline 30th November…

On Merlin in Wildlife on 13th November 2001

"The Sensuous Pussy" perhaps?

On Kensington Palace in England on 10th November 2001

It is Kensington Palace but Rob thought that it was the place where Charles lived ergo it must be St James Palace. Don't know why he thought Charles lived … -more-

On fuckwitted war in Fuckwittage on 14th October 2001
P.S. :

I nearly forgot to mention that various northern alliance members were allies of Osama Bin Laden after he fled to Afghanistan in 1996. Bin Laden was certainl… -more-


on 14th October 2001

The Taliban are undeniably brutal but the Northern Alliance are no better. Their treatment of women is equally abhorrent. Yet all of a sudden, these anti-Tal… -more-


on 13th October 2001

I agree that this is totally fuckwitted. What gets me is the hypocrisy of the situation. George W bangs on about defending the freedoms that America holds de… -more-

On Nice scarf Nat in ourpointlesslives on 7th September 2001

Looks like he's about to give someone the last rites – heavy night, was it?

On Grey Sunflower Seed Weevil in Plants & Gardens on 4th September 2001

I swear I saw one of these little buggers on one of my babies the other day. I flicked it off and it hasn't returned…yet…

On Ash boozing in Spain on 31st August 2001

What is that hideous coloured stuff in your glass? It looks like tizer or irn bru

On Secret Nuclear Bunker in Comedy on 10th June 2001

I know this sign looks absurd but there's a very dull explanation. The bunker is near my home town (Brentwood). About ten years ago, it was opened as a touri… -more-

On Rebecca Romijn in Celebrities on 26th May 2001

She's going to get a really stupid tanline

On Sarah Michelle Gellar in Celebrities on 25th May 2001
Re: Spin Cycle :

Don't knock it 'til you've tried it ;)

On Encyclopaedia for sale in Comedy on 24th May 2001

Very true - ask Ash ;)

On The Horse in Ongar Towers on 29th April 2001

No it's definitely Sting. You're thinking of Jason Connery (son of Sean) who was the second incarnation of Robin Hood in the LWT 80's TV show.

On Dear World in Comedy on 27th April 2001

Can anybody explain to me how "pastry" is a method of killing oneself?

On Amy, Mel, Mary and Martin at some party or other in Ongar Towers on 24th April 2001

It was New Year – I'm sure I remember wearing that outfit then

On Breakfast by the River in Weddings on 23rd April 2001

Well, considering I'd had about 3 hours sleep and a lot of alcohol in the 48 hours prior to this "morning after" picture, I'd say I looked pretty damn good!

On Throwing the Bouquet in Weddings on 22nd April 2001

My bouquet was pretty heavy – I was sure I'd end up causing one of my guests a serious injury when I threw it!

On Selwyn College Chapel in Weddings on 22nd April 2001

I was an undergraduate at Newnham College where the reception was held. However, Newnham doesn't have a chapel. It was founded in 1871 as a women's college a… -more-
