Can we have a caption for the first picture? I remember what Mick and Zed look like but who's everyone else?

I'm the one with glasses and a blue-black shirt who looks like a psychopath. My photos always resemble police 'wanted' posters.

Joel looks like a Bond villain in that opening shot. Except for the adsence of a cat on his lap.

Great shots, folk. Makes me sad I didn't come.

Ha! Great pics. The first looks like the cast of Scooby-Doo got back together 20 years later . . .!

In the last one, Joel looks like he's planning on nicking the other two statues!

"In the last one, Joel looks like he's planning on nicking the other two statues!"

This is what bugs me about me in photos. Gary compared me in the first pic to a Bond villain. I look dodgy somehow. A mix of tension and short-sightedness, plus narrowing of the eyes resulting from lack of sleep. Posing for a photo always results in me looking evil.

Zed takes a good photo, probably because the camera doesn't seem to bother him.

Wow, you're all real people. I'm not.

CGW is like the 5th A-TEAM member in that get-up. Your missus looks lovely and smiley, Zed. Nice energy from her pics. My theory is that only extroverts are photogenic. Something to do with radiating energy onto the negative.

So is the velvet jacket why it's Lord Probert?

Interesting. My missus is very photogenic - those are actually bad pics of her. She has a lot of good energy about her.

Me, on the other hand...I'm as photogenic as roadkill. These are actually good ones of me, for a change, and I still look vile and old-woman-fat-faced. :-/

You look pretty well, actually. Are you an extrovert? To clarify, I define an extrovert as someone who gains energy from being around others, an introvert gains energy from being alone.)

Thanks, mate.

According to your definition, Proto, I'm an extrovert. I was giddy as a goose last weekend, surrounded by all these fine folk.

Let's say I'm an introverted extrovert. :-)

The short-sightedness must be pretty bad, Joel: in the first one you're looking the wrong way altogether!

As for me and photos. Well, if Zed looks like roadkill in photos, I look like what the roadkill ate before it was run down.

Interesting photogenic theory of Justin's, though. I suspect how ugly you are has an effect too. Though some ugly people are remarkably photogenic.

I'm an extroverted introvert. And certainly not photogenic. You, on the other hand Zed, look even better then when I saw you last year! And Emily is as gorgeous as ever - I totally want to "whoog" you in that shot.
:-)

You all look great though - (including John Travis who never visits us here, and who I'll say no more about, as I think I scared him last time) and it's so great to see most of the gang together, all comradey and community like...

And the awards look very handsome too.

Thanks so much for posting!!!

I think that top picture is marvellous.

I don't think the velvet jacket confers Lordship Proto, but then I don't really know what does. Trendiest jacket of the weekend was worn by the Sultan of Cool GCW (when not in Johnny Napalm gear)

It's odd, but I had a strong feeling that I wanted to sit down and have a pint with people from the board last night. Don't know where that came from. It's odd that these photos should show up just then.

Judging from the photos, I think the word avuncular was created for Mick. He looks so at ease in the world.

Is that a euphemism for "he's had WAY too much Guinness - and as for the Jack Daniel's..."?

:-)

Oh, and that's my good lady Debbie, sitting with Soozy in the fourth picture down.
