TP Staff Portraits - come and meet the team

[Yv]

Well sort of....

May I first introduce your forum owners and admin team.

@Marcel - The tamest of the admins, Marcel is the man with the computer, the cup of tea, the tools and the key to the engine room/hamster closet

Marcel by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@Matt - A little more ferocious than Marcel but still a pussycat, the man that deals with the advertisers, so he likes to pretend he is business like. In reality normally to be found in holey t-shirt and shorts.

Matt by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@digitalfailure - Brian is not very tame at all, so he is still the staff room tea boy. Half the time he doesn't even know his own name

The Moderators

@fabs - Marc is the guy with the fastest camera equipped mobility scooter ever

Fabs by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@kelack - There she is, our Kelly, scarlet and black rugby shirt, phone glued to hand ready to zap any TP trouble before it starts...as long as the app will let her.

Kelack by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@cowasaki - Darren is definitely staff room gadget man, forever wanting us to try out his new toys. Think Professor Emmet Brown

Cowasaki by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@SarahLee Stylish career woman by day, dog loving baby shooting moderator by night

@TheBigYin Our very own grumpy old lycra lout, Mark can often be found in dark smelly rooms [aka The Film and Conventional forum]

@Hacker - You might not see much of Colin, but he is there, lurking, looking out for trouble makers. He is our chief of security, wiv da boyz

@Grendel - Paul, all ready for London Irish this weekend

Grendel by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@dod - Dod is our other grumpy resident as well as weekend equine shooter, though in fairness, his sense of humour is never too far away.

Dod by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@Jimmy_Lemon - What can I say about Tom, one of those weirdo vegetarian Yorkshire men, so we allow him some slack.

JimmyLemon by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@Cobra - Chris, the snakey one, off to shoot the entire zoo again

Cobra by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@Tori_T The staff room multi skiller, from fixing the hamster wheel to sweeping up old threads, Vicky is your girl

Tori_t by Yvonne White - WhiteGoldImages, on Flickr

@Yv - Yep, that'll be me, in a bubble of cats, cameras and coffee [and some Lego]

[gramps]

Motley crew if ever I saw one

 

[Ady N]

Are Jimmy & Cowasaki twins? - it certainly looks that way................ ;-)

 

[wontolla]

Brilliant, well done you! But, Marcel? Tame?

 

[Yv]

you weren't meant to notice

 

[Cobra]

Its a long sad story, that we only whisper about behind closed doors

 

[XFile2708]

Great work as always Yvonne

 

[RaglanSurf]

Brilliant fun, well done Yv. Who'd have thought the TP staff room was so spangly? I always imagined it as a dark, dingy, beige basement, a sort of cross between a taxi office and Jaffa cake stock room.

 

[Earley Man]

Great piece of fun, just the thing to cheer me up on a cold and wet Monday morning.

 

[RedRobin]

And so who is who in this scene then? ....

 

[Yv]

Great work as always Yvonne

Thankyooo

shhh.... don't tell them about the reality

Great piece of fun, just the thing to cheer me up on a cold and wet Monday morning.

Glad they cheered you up, there is a little bit of childishness in all of us

 

[Yv]

And so who is who in this scene then? ....

Brilliant, someone put a lot of effort into that!

 

[cowasaki]

And so who is who in this scene then? ....

Brilliant..... Faceboooked

 

[cowasaki]

YV, Loving them. Your cat seems to have been visiting me at the time

 

[Raptor Mike]

Looks like you've put a great deal of thought and work into this little project Yv, thanks for doing it.

 

[The23rdman]

Love them!

The photos, that is, not the dodgy staff.

 

[Yv]

YV, Loving them. Your cat seems to have been visiting me at the time

well I know you have a fondness for felines and canines Darren

Looks like you've put a great deal of thought and work into this little project Yv, thanks for doing it.

*looks around furtively and whispers* about an hour of insomnia on Friday night was responsible for this outrage

 

[Yv]

Love them!

The photos, that is, not the dodgy staff.

Thankyou, I did post them in the staffroom first, for approval and I am told most are uncannily like the people they represent

 

[DG Phototraining]

They all look a bit too alike for me - inbreeding no doubt

More a Clan than a Team, diss one and you'll be hog-tied by a banjo playing freak and his fat toothless mates - yee-har

Dave

You are pretty much spot on there
(on both counts )

 

[Nod]

Well, he's close - the banjo playing freak is fat and toothless (and just for Yv and Jon, an expat named P@#l!!!)

 

[Lemaildetom]

Excellent! Thank you very much it's great to now being able to put some faces on all of you!

 

[vetonbike]

My god they are ugly

 

[Cobra]

My god they are ugly

And thats our best sides too!

 

[Gremlin]

My god they are ugly

And thats our best sides too!

We need a Poll

 

[vetonbike]

With a brush head on it. So you can sweep the floor whilst moving backwards.

 

[Yv]

trust me, these are better than the real thing, those photos really would scare the bejaysus out of you!

 

[Cobra]

We need a Poll

No need we know who the out right winner would be

 

[Gremlin]

No need we know who the out right winner would be

After THIS I would say Yvonne, well she gets my vote now

 

[JohnN]

Thats brilliant

 

[Yv]

Thats brilliant

Thanks John.

Ignoring you two above

 

[PaulButler]

Great fun Yv, but one question ... have you photo shopped the one of Chris? seems far too good looking

 

[Cobra]

Great fun Yv, but one question ... have you photo shopped the one of Chris? seems far too good looking

No, they sent me to a health farm for two weeks,
before taking that picture

 

[PTJ]

And they say the camera doesn’t lie hmmmm

 

[Yv]

Great fun Yv, but one question ... have you photo shopped the one of Chris? seems far too good looking

Nah, I just ran out of grizzled looking faces, so Chris got the nice one because he is my frieeeeeeeeend

 

[fracster]

Matt is cool, even though he is French, the rest of you just look like blocks of plastic.

 

[Yv]

Pah, just wait until I start on the members.... mwahahahaaaaaaa

 

[MWHCVT]

Got to say really enjoyed this nice to see a little humour from the the team I think you've captured it well Yvonne, personally I hope you do start on the membership too....one question though, who said you could steal my wall paper from my bedroom to use as the background?
