: : : : The Telepath Newsletter
: : : : Issue #1
: : : Jennie
: : : In response to your request for items of bric a brac I can offer at the moment the following against his wishes I am absolutely sure.
: : : ... A selection of the most unlikely photos of our Hero
: : : ... A treasured cheese sandwich which Hero refused to eat aged eight
: : : ... A selection of disgusting droppings that our Hero collected as a nipper
: : : ... A label from or Hero¹s school suit ³ Robin Downes ³
: : : ... A teddy bear which our Hero fell in love with or beat the hell out of
: : : ... A photograph of our Hero¹s first girlfriend ( Man was she beautiful )
: : : ... A part of the original dead parrot which later became the Parrot joke
: : : ... A box of 79 packets of crisps which our Hero thought he had nicked
: : : ... A tie that our Hero wore to his Public school ... somewhat soiled
: : : ... A photograph of our Hero wearing overweight glasses age about nine
: : : Unfortunately I am unable to comply with the standards you have laid down re negatives, but as these come with tears in my eyes * that will the day * from my own awfully private collection perhaps they will be acceptable as Collectors Pieces.
: : : Such is the value that I think they should be auctioned or raffled with proceeds going to the Jeffrey Downes Home For Sick Frogs known locally as Mad Jeff¹s Place
Jeffrey, they sound like a GREAT Collection! You would probably win the Contest Hands UP! Jennie
: : Those Photo's better stay in the attic where they belong! I have been looking for that cheese sandwich... hmmm
Oh Come on Robin!! Some of those photos could be the making of you yet! Everyone LOVED that Baby pic! Jennie
: : Jennie, I love the idea of categories for the photos, and of course, a contest. Jeff has some wonderful (aged) prizes I'm certain will be the impetous for many snapshots at conventions.
: I don't think you have to worry too much about scanning. I have a scanner that creates an image of a photograph hard to discern from the original.
: Hey, guys, I'm excited with everything that is going on. Good job!
: Have missed you all.
: Tessa
We missed you, too, Tessa! Hmmmm....what dpi is that scanner and brandname?
