the boy Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Mmmmmmmmmmm...... (Scratches head). Mmmmmmmmmmm...... (Scratches head a little more, then scratches backside and smells finger, inspired by something beyond him that he doesn't understand he makes a cup of tea whilst pondering his task. WTF he thinks. He has seen it before. Many lifetimes ago, in a vehicle travelling at great speed. He remembers now, but vaguely, his arms they are hairy, his feet are little hairy hands................... There are levers and buttons a large red one in particular and a voice repeating, repeating, repeating. He can't make out what they are saying, all he knows is that he really wants to press the big red button. He reaches out, raises his hand and............. That's all I've got so far, that was my exact sequence of thoughts when I saw the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody steal my idea, I'm officially announcing that my entry this month will be called 'no limits' or something similar. Back off now. Lol Reminds himself that lunchtime drinking and the internet should not be mixed. Gives himself a scolding. Apologising his mind returns to the speedy vehicle and the red button......

Skol303 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 Good to see lots of ideas being sparked by the picture. I've got something brewing myself... although I'm not sure whether I'll have time to work it up, as I've a few other musical commitments that I [i]really[/i] need to finish as a priority this month (Nige knows about one of them ). So we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Look guys. I have decided that I am going to win this month so I recommend you don't waste your time concoting some great opus (No Opus and Bob Opus). Something shallow and uninteresting will do.
