I guess the Bill did not belong to POOWP!

(Paternal Order Of the White Pants)

I wonder what was so interesting up in the sky, or was a pigeon zeroing in?  LL~

That bottom photo begs for some bubble comments, come on guys what was each guy thinking, each facial expression can elicit a ton of good one liners.

I'll start

Bob..... Where am I?,,, Who am I??? Where did I park??? Did I Drive?
Les..... Ohhhhhh Thank you, thank you, thank you lord, thank you thank you. Who's the man?
Bill...... Sausages? Yea I got your sauages right here pal!

Top Photo

Les.... He, he, he, he, he, heeee.
BOB..... I'm cool see my shades? I'm the Ice Man, Where's Mavrick?
Bill..... Sausages? Yea I got your sauages right here pal!

Hey watta I know, I've recently you can't tell a persons gender by the name even in the USA let alone Europe. They said they were a photographer, they had some old photos, so the next logical set was my answer.  HB~> I'm having too much fun with the captioning of the photos.

Here is an addition

The as yet unamed guy in the top  photo

"Americans ! Sheesh , hey pal watch your hands!"

Or

"Do I looked thrilled? I am just so thrilled! Are we done yet?"


Les.... "Muhahahahahaha!"

Well, no... The guy between Les and I is Georgi Marinov...

Bob Hunt

I Defer to you Bob, but if you compare the photos it certainly looks like the same guy 30 or so years later.

Tania,
Thanks for the pictures. The guys haven't changed MUCH have they?

With all due respect, I can say that I have seen hundreds of pictures and only that. Much things I have read and learned from them and their experience. I hope their smiles remain the same, although the past few years:) And the fact that I can write with any of them due to my friendship with Igor Burger, for which I am grateful:)

Once again thank you all!

Tania
