As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Where are you all?

Where are you all?

Post by Animal Mother »

Just out of interest. Where do you all live?

I'm in North Wales UK. A county called Wrexham.

My local pub.

Not that cool. Just some highly selective imagery to make it look a lot nicer than it actually is! ;) :lol:

I'm sure you've something similar down your way.

For balance, here is a pic of some of our Spice addicts.

About 90 minutes or 60 miles. It's a cool place. Only been there once though.

This actually made me laugh out loud. It's only funny because it's true! They have better fashion sense than me! (Unless the woman picks out my clothes).

Also funny that what they lack in physical coordination, they make up for with color coordination.

Great pictures! And a cool idea for a thread. I live in Pittsburgh, PA but I spend about half the year working away from home. Usually in California. I'm in Los Angeles right now for just a couple more weeks and then I drive about 2500 miles back home. If you've never been to Pittsburgh, it's worth a visit. I think people have very low expectations, so when they get there and see a thriving and interesting city with a ton of stuff to do, they are always pleasantly surprised and feel like they've discovered something.

To stay on topic, I just moved to the town of Sonoma, Ca. Better known as wine country. Sadly, I am not a wine fan, but luckily there are tons of amazing breweries close by. That and I get to rock high performance summer tires year round and wear shorts lol.

I just went through a bunch of my photos around the area (most taken from inside rich people's homes in which I was working) and came across a few. Some from the local racetrack (Sears Point aka Sonoma Raceway) where I tend to indulge in adult beverages and watch sweet ass cars run a road course. In between the racetrack and the ocean, you basically drive through Endor, but, sadly I don't have any pictures of the redwood forests. Anyways, here is a little taste.
