    No, isn't "traditionally built" the new OS phrase? :D

    I'm not so young and I did it!. Unless of course you think I look young! (Makes note to cancel the plastic surgery).

    Actually I think everyones been incredibly brave. I don't like my picture even being taken let alone posting it, but I thought what the heck. It is great to see what everyone looks like, makes it seem a little more personal .
    Thanks for starting this ancasta

    Wow I love this thread. What a good looking bunch you Old Stylers are, who says thrift is dowdy! Lots of cute kids too. My pics are already spreadeagled on the site, however I really enjoyed seeing all these and putting faces to the names. Thank you

    PS This isn't the place to say 'im not a cat person' is it.... much preferred dogs myself. While growing up (in a forest) our wonderful dog was called Smut, a short haired collie-esque mongrel. He had one ear up and one ear down and a major character. He was only small, but he got around. Half the young puts in the village seemed to have one ear up and one down, including the Greate Danes!

    Hello Martin!!

    I think I would say that this board does seem to be more of the cat people type!! Although I do love dogs too, used to have a beautiful Samoyed but my partner got custody when we broke up..... Cats are more convenient in rented homes!!

    Nice to see you in this board though, you should come see us more often!!

    It's OK, Martin, not all of us are cat lovers (Sorry everyone else, that's just the way it is) I'm sure you're still welcome though :) That is, unless I'm hounded (pun intended) off this board for prefering dogs :D:D

    I'm a wee doggie lover myself with two little ones. Not that big into cats. Although I had them when I was little, I much more a dog person now. It's going to cost us a small fortune to bring them over there but they are so much part of our family what else can we do :confused: I could never part with them.
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)
