How does one post pictures on this site?

Dear Lotus Blossom,

I am sorry that I am unable to assist with your enquiry, but I have learnt, through e-mail correspondence, that a member of the clique has in their possession a photograph of Miles and Steff relaxing together on Brighton Pier.

Would he/she be prepared to share this picture with our readers?

Karen

Did you mean this one?

No, Steff. Miles does not wear spectacles, as you well know. Here is the picture to which Karen referred:


 


I am delighted to see that Miles has lost none of the sartorial elegance for which he was famed in downtown East Grinstead.




done edit for to add photeo again carl

Super photo, Anonymous Clique Member (Darwinian Man).

It’s good to see some real British beefcake.

Miles doesn’t look too bad either.

The pic which Steff has tried to post is proof that you really can have too much of a good thing.

Here’s some more British Beefcake for you, Robin. Fun Slipperer Brian Sibley, the Galloping Hairpin, can be seen on the left side of the picture, on the right hand side of the man in the light coloured suit.



done edit to put bck phteo

There is some confusion here as it's not clear whether we are to treat the man in the light coloured suit as a human being with a right hand and a left hand, or as a object in a photograph.

More specifically, does " on the right hand side of the man in the light coloured suit" mean on his right (i.e. on the left of his image from our point of view) or on the right of his image (i.e. to his left)?

Mr. Reid, the man in the light coloured suit, should be treated as a human being, unlike several other members of staff at William Penn.

Sid was right.

I'm obliged to Your Biroship.

I am very grateful to Gillian for posting the pictures of Christine Keeler under the ‘News from the Darby and Joan Club’ thread, but are they permanent?

Does anyone know why the pictures from this thread have disappeared? Can we blame Carl and his mats?

what me and my mats says is this – is not our faut. Pictures what is sent to the foro is only temp and is eradicatered after a month. So we has got a v specilale page just for photeos and we has put on it all the photeos sent by Gillian of chrissie – including the UGLY one and you can puruse them at

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos.html

and later on we is going to put on it all the pictures what was sent by them from Willam Penn and a bit of musique and we will let you no when is fini.
Thankyou

we done a bit to Gillians stuff and put on that photeo of Miles and Stiff on Brigton pier but then the wilim penn song musique got bugered up and the funslippereres.jpg come out too small and we is a bit pised off

Thankyou

 

Dear Carl and Mats,

Your photographs page is an outstanding piece of graphic design. It is distinctive without being ostentatious, exclusive without being elitist.

Congratulations on producing something that will bring pleasure to most of our readers. There is absolutely no need for you to be pised off.

Hugs and fuggs,

Gillian

Carl and Mats – don’t-cha just love ‘em! A-graftin’ and a-craftin’ for the forum when everyone else has gone on holiday to Worthing. Keep going, boys! If the youth of today were all like you, this country would soon be back in the first division!

Carl and Mats – ain’t-cha sick of ‘em! A bunch of disaffected layabouts who can’t even write their names the same twice. Christine Keeler should be running this forum. Now there’s a Bexhilly Filly with some real spunk!

thankyou Gilian we will try again with funslirrppers.jpg because is good photeo with that gallopin hairpin.Me and my mats is going up down WORTHING you make my heart sing tomorrow and get our gitars out and have a laugh with the old age pensionaires what drivs along the prom in their electricel cars and LADY KAREN will be doing moderatione next week if she dont have pmt so is best that no one do no postes for a few days
thankyou

Me and my mats has added a phteo to our photeos page of Chrissie with her mat Mandy but they is not mats no more
Thankyou

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos.html

Our mat Gillian has sent us v rare photeos what you cant find on the web of some of them what got in the scandal with that horrible Profumo sod. They is on our page at

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos.html


Thankyou

Thank you for sending in the pictures, Gillian. They are very rare indeed. I searched the Google images library for Eugene Ivanof, Stephen Ward and Mandy Rice-Davies and it had nothing. I’m particularly surprised that there were no pictures of Mandy.

Are you able to get hold of any more of those involved in the ‘Scandal of the Century’?

Earlier today, I sent a photograph of Mandy Rice-Davies to Carl and his Mats. Amazingly, they have managed to upload it onto their pictures page.

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos.html

This made me laugh. I was going to put it in my Diary thread but then I thought it would look better in the Pictures thread because it is a picture. I know it can only stay here for a few days.

Our photos page is filled up with pictures of chrissie and her mats so me and my mats has started a new photeos page and we has put that photeo of Spanker Witham on it because it was on the foro but photeos on the foro is only temp and disparus after a week.

And if you want us to put photeos on our page like what Bob from America is going to send of Neadethaletre men then do send them to us and we will put them on our phots page for you because they is perminente.
Thankyou
Carl and mats and our new photeos page is at

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos2.html

A small, but artistically acceptable, photograph of the unpleasant Peter Witham, son of Spanking Headmaster Alan, may now be viewed at the new ‘photeos’ page:

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos2.html

To enhance ‘The Profumo Affair’ thread, a picture of the appalling man, seen with a smiling Brenda, is on view at:

http://www.geocities.com/carlandmats/photeos2.html

Pictures of others involved in the ‘Scandal of the Century’ remain at:

Thank you CarlandMats.I hope Melissa will be satisfied.

If you can get Gillian to send you her school pictures,I would love to see them. Especially if she is wearing Bottle Green Knickers.

Dear CarlandMats; I just received word from Melissa,all is forgiven. However she did ask why you are unable to spell a single word and I was forced to admit that you are all mental defectives but we love you anyway.

Thankyou Bob for all the trouble you has taken with MELLISA and for telling her that we is mentale defectivios. MELISSA can be honorarury mebre of notra foro and we got our gitars out and done a song about her - and Big RAY done his usaule riff in the base until the neibors complainered.
Thankyou

What a babe is MELISSA
Me and my mats just wanna kiss her
Cos on our foro in Decembre
We done made her a honory membre

I am delighted that Melissa has been made an Honorary Member of this Forum. She is a character in ‘Princess Ida’, the operetta in which my name is also featured. In Act Two she performs a duet with Lady Blanche.

Melissa: Now wouldn't you like to rule the roast
And guide this University?

Blanche: I must agree,
'Twould pleasant be,
(Sing hey, a Proper Pride!)

Melissa: And wouldn't you like to clear the coast,
Of malice and perversity?

Blanche: Without a doubt,
I'll bundle 'em out,
(Sing hey, when I preside!)

Dear Gladys; That was a heart warming rendition.To what tune do we sing that to? I hope Melissa decides to join our 'Happy Circle'.

I have searched on the Internet but cannot find a copy of the music.

Tomorrow I will try and produce a scan from the printed score.

The piece is in F major and is in 3/4 time – three quarter time for you folks in the Colonies.

Are you a G&S afficianado, DW? Not many of us about these days.

Only saw Ida performed by the D'Oyly Carte once, new years eve 1977 when Jane Metcalfe was playing the part of Melissa.

Steve

Oh yes, indeed! I love Victorian and Edwardian operetta. Here is something from ‘The Arcadians’. It has great charm.

All down Piccadilly, dilly, dilly, dilly,
Round by the Park,
You'll see ladies running after little Willie,
Till it gets dark.

And here is a picture of Jane Metcalfe as ‘Iolanthe’.

 

Thanks for posting that. What a pity she never recorded the role of Iolanthe. I only saw her a couple of times after the old DOC folded, then she seemed to vanish from the face of the Earth.

If I might ask further, do you collect ancient G&S recordings? I'm particularly anxious to obtain a copy of Henry Milledge's rendering of The Sentry's song.

Steve

The earliest recording of the 'Sentry’s Song' I can get my hands on is that made by Fisher Morgan with the D’Oyly Carte in the 1950’s.

I am unable to find any reference to Henry Milledge. Do you know when he was part of the Company?

Henry Millidge was with the D'Oyly between 1921 & 1926 playing most of the secondary baritone roles, but also some of the leads such as Corcoran, Strephon, Sir Roderic etc. He made two 'official' recordings with the company - Sir Joseph in the act 2 finale only in the 1923 Pinafore, and 2nd Yeoman in the 1929 Yeomen of the Guard (after he had left the company).

His Sentry song, therefore, is an 'unofficial' recording, and flippin' hard to find in any shape or form. The well-known G&S scholar, Michael Walters, played me his copy some twenty five years ago, but it was stolen (along with many other scarce recordings) a few years later. I believe (but cannot be certain) that Millidge sings 'Ho, Jolly Jenkin' from Ivanhoe on the reverse side.

The 1929 recording of Iolanthe is now available on CD, and features the likes of Darrell Fancourt as Mountararat and Sydney Granville as Willis.

best wishes

Steve
