A self wrapping present too Lep - what an appealing touch of whimsy !

James - you seem to have happened upon the SPOON-O-MATIC mark II
Gaoxiguo - that is just too creepy for words

I'm impressed with the ideas this week, my brain seems to be on strike. Celia and James pretty well got to some of my ideas first. Still that doesn't mean they can't be tried again.

I tried to think of an original alternative use for this, but I couldn't get the battered Star Wars droid out of my head!

Gaoxiguo's translates to:
The humanity in the exploration which does not stop!

But I have to agree with Josephine, it is too creepy.

Gaoxiquo, Josephine say's 为词是太蠕动的。

Thanks Josephine!

Wayne I really like your entry.. gives me the creeps, thinking of those two machines battling away against each other for centuries! Nice work, love the use of shadows.

By the way, welcome to all the new folk! Hope you enjoy the forum.

Dave, the phonogram idea wasnt entirely mine

A good friend suggested it.

Its amazing how many uses a piece of rusted out machinery can have

It takes more than a day, just keep using it and eventually it will just come to you. (Kinda like a child learning to walk, at first you stumble around and fall and eventually your running and jumping!)

Anna, my 1st thought was a gramophone - great work
Josephine, really like your work
Maiden - having children has obviously not blunted your imagination!!

As Gordon now owned the banks, he decided he would design the new coin - unfortunately he forgot to tell everyone he was still working in imperial (Yes, I admit, rather farfetched for a labour prime minister)!

Having children? When did this happen? hehe

No, Deborah - no kids just a dog who I treat as a kid

Thanks Mad Lep! Didn't think of it like that but, yes that would be creepy! You had a great idea with the pressie packer.
