The Horror of Suburbia

 

No, it's not CGI. People did used to look like this.

These are the Fanshawe's (pronounced Featherstonehaugh.)

• Roger is an Investment Banker, in both technical and rhyming slang senses)
• Julie is a part time teacher who collect knitted toilet paper covers in her spare time
• Kevin (left) enjoys mathematics, Latin, accountancy and dressing up in mum's clothes.
• Wolfgang (right) believes he's a changeling, but wants to be a Tax Auditor when he grows up.

The sign in the background appears to be "Curtis Woo...." which makes me this this might be Curtis Wood Park Road in Hern Bay, with it's shitty half-timbered stockbroker houses...Like this  but life is too short to find an exact match.

Bonus - The Earth with high and low sea levels.

The Horror. The Horror.

 

There are so many ways of coping with the horror of modern life.  Personally, the Chocolate Bath Olivers sound like the better choice.

The slide was from an odd box of slides, many of which defy explanation. Like this one.

Bonus - Also indescribable...  Cindy und Bert

Like a Camel, but in reverse.

It took me a couple of sends to realise, but something about this horse struck me as odd.

VERY odd.

I'm sure there's a story behind it, and I'm sure I'll never know. But...I hope it lived out its life in pleasant surroundings.

Bonus - Sigur Rós - Svefn-G-Englar

Hallowe'en Gore

Curious.   Americans Love Halloween.  Most of my Slides are American.

But, I couldn't find any Hallowe'en slides to share with you. So, lets dip into the "Operation Selection", and witness a bloody attempt to hide a large ball bearing side a body.

Bonus - And while I'm posting items of dubious taste...
