It just isn't working. I'm not jealous.

Love the sun, this is how I imagine an old earth with a dying sun. By that time, after the 18th World War the Irish space programme will have saved humanity by sending a colony into space, Mars will be under tarmac and a nasty civil war will have broken out on Venus over the question of whether Seamus Murphy's (Capt Murphy is the Holy Astronaut who captained the Tipperary into space on their desperate one way mission in AD 2643, which finally got out of earth's orbit in AD 2644 after a scuffle broke out in the onboard bar after take-off) mother, Clodagh, is also a deity or not. the only people left on earth are two mobile phone salesmen and an aussie barman. The economy remains vibrant.

Stunning.

Gotta agree there shivers.

Flipflop has posted a fair old number of stunning sunset photos, yet they are all so different.
And the rest of the shots have been shit-hot as well.

Please em coming Flipflop.
It's a great thread to check in on.

BTW
Get nowonmai to caption them and you'd have a great greating card business. ;)
It'd sure beat the normal soppy crap they pump out.

No worries mate, that would be one fooking funny greeting card business - nice touristy pictures with world-weary, can't-be-arsed-with-it captions to go with them.

We could call it not "Wish You Were Here Cards" but "I'm Here, You're Not, So What? Cards"

The weather is here, wish you were beautiful?

Nirvana is overrated. Valhalla is much better and far more likely for you.

I'll take it - only because there'll be no C+P cyber-warriors there, whereas I can't be sure in a state of Nirvana

Yep, given the choice between sprinkling sand and jingling bells or crossing the Rainbow bridge into Bifrost, scramasax in hand... I know which one I want

Thank you for supporting my brothers in 3 wheeled transport. I really liked that little area of Kathmandu, lots of steaks and cold beer and a refreshing change from India.

No worries mate, this little guy must have been 60kg soaking wet, yet peddled a big old lump like me and the little woman for a good few miles around town without a hint of discomfort, Nepali rickshaw drivers are top men.

Not cool. If you follow that logic then you should change your name to pocahontas.
