Time for the OLDIES..

[Doc Alan]

Taken with my Dad in the 1970’s - hair and style of clothes have changed a little now !

[gWaPito]

Hmm ... I'd love to put some of my old photos on here too, but alas ... ... I don't have a clue how to go about it!

We in the same club Arthur

BTW..Just taken the 5 minutes required to work it out.

Arthur, here's a copy of some advice I received from Doc Alan about posting photos on the forum, hope it helps you too

Photobucket is recommended for posting photos on the Forum

( http://filipinaroses.com/sh...-Your-Pictures ).

Once you have uploaded your photos on Photobucket, when viewing them, you will see on the right hand side " Links to share this photo? ". Left click on " IMG " for each photo, then paste that link to your Forum post. The photo(s) should then appear after you complete your post.

Following on from Rosie's post ( the link didn't work ), a few members ( as well as Arthur ) have mentioned difficulty in posting photos on the Forum. I’m sure there are many quality photos which you would like to post here.


• Ideally if starting from basics it’s best to ask someone you know to explain while they’re with you. However, assuming you have been able to save photos ( often referred to as images ) on your computer, then use Photobucket for any you wish to share on the Forum.



• http://www.photobucket.com

• Click on “ Upload “ then “ Choose photos & videos “.


• Select the photo you wish to copy from your computer by “ left clicking “ on it.

Hope this helps !

Thank you Graham....You'll be glad to know you aren't the first to say that I'll have you know I'm as gentle as a pussy cat...My dear Mother and 4 kids can vouch for that

[grahamw48]

Ok, I'll say Phil Collins then. He's a nice guy too.

[gWaPito]

Yes, that too!!.............I hope you are refering to his 80s era and not now ...He looks dog rough!

[gWaPito]

Taken with my Dad in the 1970’s - hair and style of clothes have changed a little now !

The hair and clothing are back in fashion Alan

[gWaPito]

This was taken 1967...I wasn't too keen on showing my teeth, for some reason

[grahamw48]

Yes, that too!!.............I hope you are referirng to his 80s era and not now ...He looks dog rough!

But of course.

[gWaPito]

Your dad looked well proud Graham with his hands over both your shoulders ...all 3 of you did. If only we could relive those days.

You looked the part in that Lotus

[grahamw48]

Thanks...yes he was a proud Chief Petty Officer in the RN then...and our hero.

Off to bed... goodnight all !

[gWaPito]

Good night

[Michael Parnham]

Thanks for the pictures Graham and Mark, very nice!

[gWaPito]

Thanks for the pictures Graham and Mark, very nice!

Thank you Michael . ...you are welcome

It's good to put real faces to names on here.

[grahamw48]

Well, as it seems I can't enter a title in new threads at the moment ...I will share here that it is my wonderful son's 20th birthday today, and 20 years of joy, I must say. Doesn't time fly.

1993...

[gWaPito]

Nice pics Graham. ..many happy returns of the day to your Son

Talking about little probs here, I'm no longer getting automatic emails in reply to the threads I've contributed...I noticed this early hours of today.

[grahamw48]

Thanks Mark.

I've regretted a few things in my life, but never for one second have I ever regretted helping to create such a wonderful son.

[gWaPito]

Thanks Mark.

I've regretted a few things in my life, but never for one second have I ever regretted helping to create such a wonderful son.

This is exactly how I look upon it now.

Without my moments of perceived madness I wouldn't have my 2 beautiful innocent bundles of joy before my very eyes.

Yes, folks with limited life experiences can judge and say whatever ...you cld argue with these ignoramus types forever and a day. .I know, I've done it

We know better than that, don't we Graham

[Terpe]

I'll never admit to having any regrets. Period.

I do have some misgivings though.
Yes, semantics.... but important to me.

[Rosie1958]

I've really enjoyed looking at ALL of the photos in this thread, it's amazing how people haven't really changed from their early days! Here's a photo of me aged 14 dressed up for a school play in 1973

[Rosie1958]

OMG.... why is my photo sooo big ? !!!!!! I'm a novice on photobucket !

[grahamw48]

Wow...Ali Macgraw ?

[Michael Parnham]

Wow...Ali Macgraw ?

I'll second that Graham!

[Rosie1958]

Thanks Graham, she's about 74 now! Must be the hair and eyebrows, although we all looked similar in the 1970s

[grahamw48]

I didn't mean NOW Rosie !

Yep....even I looked like that in 1973...but with a tash.

[Rosie1958]

LOL ....... I know what you meant Graham and will take it as a compliment (I didn't have a tash though) ! Ali McGraw actually starred in the very famous film Love Story in 1973 which I remember going to see in Hong Kong so it would have been at the same time
