Found some old pictures at home from the (2000?) pound-sign protest when we were miffed with Ellis...again. Originated from the old mailinglist and @mjmooneys printer :) And the origin of my avatar.

Uploaded as I couldn't find any traces of that protest online any more.

edit: Found an old article, with VT founder no less :)

The group - calling themselves "The Villa People's Lobby" - are angry at the refusal of Ellis and his board to back Gregory's pursuit of new players.

I thought we were The Lobby of Villa People?

The excited screams, you know this is a memory they’ll remember for many years.

Yeah, especially when they look down at the toe tip removed due to frostbite. Magical 😂

More proof if needed that the globe is not actually getting warmer and it's all a hoax

I don't do non VT social media but I would expect that to be all over it.

The birds that visit our garden to feed cheer me up, especially when a new type appears.

This week we have had Siskins, never ever seen one before.

My mate's son is married to an Argentinian lass called Ani. 

Does she know who her Daddy is?

On an impromptu pit stop we also saw a whale in the harbour several times, at one point it was about 20m from us. Two firsts in one day. 

Saw a few in Stoodi Bakers, back in the day

But yeah, I loved my 3 days in Iceland a few years ago. Bizarrely mild when we went though. Much warmer than it was in the UK at the time. I never got to use the new parka I purchased :(
