Hubert Boillot Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) Well, some pics at last... getting the opportunity to snap one when she was notmadly chasing a furry or feathery toy, or slumped on her cot, has proved somewhat more challenging than I thought Mascha has now been settling in her new home for one week. She is a voracious, talkative, sweet, cuddle-hungry, purring, energetic player, beauty queen. Have you noticed by my words we fell in love with her ? Hubert PS: she is well worth the 1 750 kms I drove to get her, of which 1 050 on saturday. She was amazingly well behaved and sweet. Once I opened her transport box, she spent 800 kms on my lap, without ever complaining ...

Lee White Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 named him after Ritchie Blackmore my guitar hero who I'll be seeing live again in just over 4 weeks. Back in the early 1980s, my friends and I decided we were going to go to the WRAM show, a big East-Coast R/C model show up in Westchester. The three of us got out of the car at a local diner here on Long Island to grab some breakfast before we hit the road, and, as I was walking up the steps, a guy with long black hair emerges from the diner and starts down the same stairs. We meet eyes, he smiles and says "Good morning, it's a bit nasty out, innit?" (It was February, and damn cold) in an English accent. I smile and respond, "Yes, it is', and he wishes me a good day, and I do likewise. My friends are behind me, oblivious to this english dude.... But I know I've seen him before. Maybe he's one of my dad's policy holders? (He was a State Farm agent)..... Yeah, I know this guy. Oh well, whatever. Then it hits me. He's the guy in the Rainbow videos on MTV, which still played music back then. Then I realize, "Holy crap, that was Ritchie Frickin' Blackmore out there". He seemed to be a regular dude, no Rock and Roll pretense whatsoever. My friend Scott, who was there, is a DP fan and thought I was full of it when I pointed it out, but, yeah, it was him.

scvrobeson Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) This is my Maggie. She's an 8 month old English Cream retriever. She loves watching TV, and tries to help me with building. This is her completely entranced by The Secret Life of Pets. She loved that movie Matt Edited June 12, 2017 by scvrobeson BiggTim and Out2gtcha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome anecdote Lee, thanks for sharing, knew he lived in Long Island USA, soooo Jealous you met him, heh, he really is an idol of mine and seen him play live between Rainbow and Deep Purple quite a few times now over the years, next time is in just under two weeks at Glasgow Scotland, really looking fwd to it, he's 72 now but can still play. Last year was the first time in decades He'd played Hard Rock again and away from his Blackmore Night venture and caught the Birmingham England UK show, glad he's in Scotland this time to save me the travel. Met a few Rock stars though, quite literally bumped into Steven Tyler in the street in Edinburgh once around about 1989, he was decent enough to stop to chat to me and my friends, we are at the Aerosmith gig the night before and talked about the show mostly ... one thing I regret asking him was, well he'd been out shopping and clearly had been buying Vinyl records as he had one of the towns LP sized carrier bags with what looked like quite a few albums in it, this was when their sales as a format had dropped right off and everyone was buying CD's (Vinyl sales are picking up again now ... but I digress) I'm absolutely kicking myself I never asked him what the records were ... arghhh Great guy though and was good to see him take time out to talk to his fans. I'll post pics of the Blackmore Rainbow show in the music thread here after the gig. Lee White 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
