A pleasant mild summer evening! But it did cool down to about 12C

Wow. More gray hair than I have maybe, Mick?

Is it just me or is there always what looks to be a bottle of ketchup at all
these get-togethers?

Having seen ingo now, my imagined picture of him has been forever changed.
Got that nightclub bouncer appearance instead of someone who'd be keeping a
document in order. Not so with Tor though, I might have been able to
describe him before now. Just by chance, I'm sure.

When are people going to pose for photos arranging themselves as primitives?
5 should have been enough for any of the basic shapes.  ;-)

Thanks for posting the photo Mick.  I look terrible, but I never like 
me in photos:-)

Looking at the photo I wouldn't mind betting that Ingo is twice the 
size of me in volume - and probably in weight too. 

Thomas looks asthough he's twice Mick's height, but not really, Mick's 
kneeling down:-)

Someone asked about weather, well it was about the same as it is here 
today, about 19 deg C, maybe a tad cooler, and overcast with a touch
or drizel.  Tor is from Norway and I'm from North West England, we didn't 
understand it either:-)

Uhhhh.... I meant one shape by all the people at once. But if you think you
can do it I dare you to try.

UK bagsy = US dibs ? I looked it up and would seem so. I just don't even
know why the word dibs exists so please don't ask me about it.

Glad you asked, Steve.
 >:-(
Well I just had to know what dibs originates from and what I found is that
it's apparently a contraction of the word dibstones (dib possibly being a
change of the word dab too); which itself can be pretty meaningless, until
you know it is something from a childrens game like jacks where you would
grab them up in a certain way to win. Dibstones were sheep knucklebones I
guess (weird huh?), something I've never heard of, but the metal jacks
supposedly replaced them. Not positive about it, just gathered that from
what I read.

When I try to find out what bagsey originated from I get nowhere. ha ha ha

Doesn't help any spelling it either way, bagsy or bagsey (oops). Sorry for
getting so off-topic here.
