Hi, Kenty - welcome to Wrong Planet :smurf:

When you paste the code for the photograph, are you using the IMG code, rather than one of the other three? I find it doesn't work unless you copy and paste the IMG code.

Great photo! You may have to explain the costume for your friends on the other side of the pond. My guess is you graduated from some very traditional English Institution or you are a hard-core cosplayer for some anime I've never seen! --rob

Ah - the former; that's me on graduating at Cambridge, and that's Newnham College in the background. I really miss Cambridge - it was so quiet.

Well here I am get a load of the size comparison to average sized people. :twisted: My psycholgist did not believe people actually screwed with me. I look almost like my avatar. :lol: So do I look forty? :?

Can you believe this guy is nervous around people. :roll:

Every group photo I have ever taken I do my best not to be near people I hate myself for doing it, I really like these guys. :(

I just noticed this the top photo is of me talking to someone across the room. Notice my strong eye contact I am making. :roll: The guy next to me is asking me if I am talking to the other guy across the room as I am talking to him. The second photo you can see I look like I am about to fall over thats how I react when ever you stand me next to someone. I drove the drill sargeants nuts. Check it out my social anxiety as it happens. :lol:

I studied English Literature, and Latin . . . but I was terrible at Latin.

You need to "Right Click" and go "View Image" because WP stretched it.

Wonderful. I'm glad Latin still gets attention. I always thought the case structure of Latin was beautiful and marvelous. I remember my Latin teacher called me a troglodyte, he certainly helped expand my vocabulary for insults.

Of course, I am reminded of Monty Python when I think of Latin, I'm sure you know this scene:

Romanes eunt domus?
Poeple called "Romanes" they go to the house?

Ah I think back to all the people I drove away by launching into reproducing the holy grail line for line. Good times, good times.

Oh, I liked everything about Latin apart from the fact that I couldn't seem to understand it properly no matter what I did! I only studied it for the first year, though, then I was free to botch English as I wished.


I prefer 'The Knights who say . . . . NI!' myself . . . .

Aight I thought I'd give you a few, just to prove it IS actually me.
And yes, my hair's been a multitude of colours. My natural colour is dark brown, but it's also been ginger, red, green, light brown and black :P
I'm posting links because I can't be bothered to resize all 4 pics.

Been holding out on this one for a while (mostly due to laziness). It's been voted by all my friends and ex-girlfriends to be the best (self shot!) picture of me.
