What an insult

[digidark]

When I crawled out of bed this morning, I found a very cryptic message waiting for me. I figured out that a friend wanted me to scan some old pics so she could put them into a digital photo frame as a present for her father.

My wife asked how I had managed to figure it all out from her cryptic message,to which I replied "I am a good detective,call me Poirot from now on.

Her reply

"You are far too scruffy to be Poirot.......Columbo would be more appropriate"

LOL, not sure I'd want to be either of those, time to get the old raincoat out then Ian.

[Chocky]

Oh well done Ian
I have a friend who calls me Marple

[digidark]

Dont have a raincoat anymore Rolf, however the right eye is about the same as Columbo's. (Have a close look at my avitar)

Love the Miss Marples thing Beryl.Perhaps I could use it Hee Hee. I thought it a way to get my own back. I have a silver grey wig that I got when I was learning portrait photography many years ago....many many years ago....many many many years ago. A pair of glasses was not a problem. I had myself all organised and then I realised Joyce already has silver grey hair and totes a pair of specs. Back to the drawing board I guess.


Please note:-

The silver grey wig was used on a polystyrene dummy head when I was practicing studio lighting and not repeat NOT worn by me.

I believe you Ian, thousands wouldn't.

[digidark]

LOL. Brilliant response

[dig deep]

Perhaps an older version of Mike Hammer is more like it

[digidark]

Thats a good idea Dig.I wonder if I could pursuade my wife that I need a curvy secretary as well

[digidark]

How come that no one has suggested that I could perhaps impersonate the suave and sophisticated Paul Temple.It doesn't say a lot for my reputation.Thanks dear friends

[Chocky]

Wasn't Hammer a Toff?
Maybe Hammer The toff was some thing else

[digidark]

I think Hammer was a bit rough and ready.Maybe Dig was right after all

[Chocky]

I looked up Hammer the Toff. It was a British film .
I didn't read Micky Spillane I preferred Rex Stout's Nero Wolf. Fat guy that sat in his office or tended to his orchids and let his sided-kick Archie Godwin do all the work
And Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlow

[digidark]

I think Dig was referring to Mike Hammer the American P.I.

[rolf]

Or MC Hammer? Loved those trousers.

[digidark]

Trust you Rolf LOL

[Chocky]

Oh I love MC Hammer
