Lesley Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 (edited) A few of the 'original' Eglu Owners had a get-together at my house today. A couple could not make it but those of us who did enjoyed wonderful weather in our garden. The weather forecast all week was looking a bit doubtful but fortune was smiling on us. I had a wonderful time and I hope the others did too. My brain appeared to have gone on holiday and a bit more organisation in the cutlery and plates department would not have gone amiss - sorry (I think it was Kate and family arriving very early when I'd just got out of the shower that did it Good job you did Kate - I needed the help ) It was so nice to meet and put a face to a name. L-R= Trish, Lesley, SarahJo, Sheila, Kate and Louise A big Birthday party at Omlet HQ next year? Edited July 3, 2005 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 Guess Who? We all sent a photo of us when we were younger to Carl who put them on a board. Most of us were terrible at guessing - see if you can do any better (I got two right ) Choose from: Trish, Lesley, SarahJo, Sheila, Kate, Louise and Nicola who sent her photo but was then unable to come.

Mrs Frugal Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 We had an excellent time, Lesley! It was great to actually meet and I didn't feel like we were all strangers - we've all been friends on the forum for so long that it felt like a meeting of old friends! Thanks so much for a wonderful day! PS - I only got 3 photos right (and one of them was mine!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola H Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Ah I was that sulky 5 year old, if I rememeber rightly I did not want to hold the monkey although I do seem to be sulking on quite a lot of old pictures.................. I have cheered up now honestly. We should meet up some time Sarah we only live 20 mins away from each other........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Sounds like you all had a great day It's great to be able to put the faces to the posts now. Not sure that I'm any good at working out the childhood pictures though, but I've had a try, 1. Louise 2. Kate 3. Lesley 4. Sheila 5. Sarah Jo 6. Trish 7, (and I'm confident on this one at least!!)

Mrs Frugal Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 One thing to remember about the baby photographs - those of us who are blonde now, may not have been as children and those blonde children may not be blonde any longer!! Spanner in the works time ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Ok, Am I allowed a second go? 1. Louise 2. Kate 3. Lesley 4. Trish 5. Sheila 6. Sarahjo 7. Nicola (I know that one is right, so can I have a mark out of 6 please this time!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 .. some of us were more fortunate to have colour photography at the time too ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Is that a clue SarahJo?!! What is it you are all holding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 And some of us had long hair until just recently . Want a third go, Gina ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Gina, I think we're being teased I never said I was any good at this. But Kate's blonde comments have got me- I won't budge in my conviction that Lesley who is the most obvious current blonde is number 3- she has to be, the baby photo really does bear some similarity to the current picture- please don't prove me wrong on that, surely I can't be So I think I plumped for Sarah Jo as the second blonde, but now I'm swapping her and Kate- maybe Kate was the mystery long blonde with colour photography So, now I've lost the plot a bit and the photo numbers, I think my new order is: 1. Louise 2. Sarah Jo 3. Lesley 4. Sheila 5. Kate 6. Trish 7. Nicola Let me just saunter back and check that that's what I mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
