Random Picture thread

Post by olympia57 »

Here's a thought on introducing a little alternative light entertainment to the site , a Random Picture thread .
Photos should be strictly inoffensive , interesting , car or " guy " orientated , remember it's supposed to be a fun thing.

Mods, if you're unsure about it or wish to amend the requirements please make any changes you wish, inc. deletion .

There are some stunning photos out there on the 'net , go find them...
Don
I'll start it off so you get the picture ...... :roll:

One for Ron :wink:

I've been inspired by this thread Don. Unfortunately my twisted mind finds a way to deviate. Wonder why - my mind, deviate??

Anyway I actually intended to start a new thread but I wanted to keep this one going. My thread was going to be called FUBAR. Interpret as you wish. And I will start a new thread if requested to do so.

Turned up this interesting photo from what "appears" to be back in the 2002 days :-?

Used it as my desktop background for a while :shock:
