an idea; disposable camera swap

I don't have the time to set this up just now, but could SOMEONE do it? Basically everyone involved buys a cheap as wee disposable camera, takes some pictures over a week and then sends the film to someone else to get it developed and vise versa...

MAKES SENSE?

SOUNDS FUN?

SOUNDS FUN.

I WANNA DO IT.


As in, like, be the runner of events?

the captain? the fat controller? the seter upper of everything?


Sorry,

I just meant I'd be involved!


:[ !


I'm sorry, I'm not a leader.

You do it, you can use emoticons to assert your authority!


I might try and do this again

starshaped(i think) did it a while ago and i got one, filled it up and sent it off but I guess it got lost in the post. Rubbish :(

Hopefully it could be more successful on my part this time. Put me down as a MAYBE


It was sarahhh!


yep wasn't me

I'm just plain old Sarah.


FUCK YEAH


I'm taking a disposable camera to greece next week

i wouldnt trust one of you lot to develop the film as far as i could throw you


yeah. but it's not called

"take some snaps on holiday and send them to a DiSer!", is it!?

Just a bit of fun, innit.


sarahhh did it last year

dunno where she posted up the photos to though

anyway yeah i'd be up for that i think. though my stupid life is plastered over flickr in poor quality cameraphone.


cue pics

of various penises.


If i do this

I will now actually just take pictures of various penises off the internet. A whole camera of it. Or just that celebrity fake gay porn site.


^ seen it,

i wouldn't call it massive.


missing a t there

i DO know how to spell, honestly


yeah...that would be bad.

i wouldn't want to be the guy picking those up...


im in

why not


I like the idea

but think the photos i'd take would be pretty boring


sounds good

without the penises.


i concur

in with a penis ban


LMAO

A good idea = take loads of photos of your willy.


quite

cunning


this sounds like an awesome

way to waste time. I'd do it, though i don't know if i'd opt for trying to take embarrassing photos of people or just go all out for weird/cool stuff


i have to say though

if we are doing this and someone gets paired with me they'd have to send it to norway as i will be there all summer. but from what i can remember it's not too pricey, and in return you'd get pictures of norwegian stuff!


yeah, why not?

Prepare for some 'lovely' pictures of bedfordshire! :D


Cool! Lots of people in then!

....who wants to organise? huh huh?


if organising just means

having people PM and then separating people off into pairs I'll do it.
If it means like, collecting all the cameras, getting the photos developed and hand delivering I am so so totally out.


oh no, the camera / developing etc is down to the individual :) !

That would be great if you would do all the pairing! Thanks! I would do it if i wasn't away for the weekend / starting a new job / lazzzzy.

YOU DA MAN!


leave it till over the weekend?

so as many people as possible get the chance to sign up for it?

i'll keep bumping it at regular intervals.


hey

you trying to make more work for me?
(but good idea rly xxx)


i HATE facebook.

just sayin'.


.....

I still have a disposable from last years Glastonbury that I've never developed. Will that do? Although I'm unsure as o what the content of that camera would hold.


oh go on then


who's going to get Biffy Clyro's camera?!

(one of the older DiSers amongst you there)


yup

i'll do it


it

makes me sad that i get this.


sounds...

interesting!

aka i'll do it too.


BUMP


sounds interesting

though my life currently ISNT
anyhoo im in


want

count me in


I'm in

let's do this thing


I'm bumping this because it's awesome

I'm secretly hoping to be paired with the english teacher.


how man photos

of whiteboard markers and red pens do you need?


* many photos

and I may well let my daughter take some of the photos so you'll probably end up with a lot of shots of people's knees.


I'm in!

Sounds like fun. I'm moving house soon so you can expect 27 photos of useless things in boxes.


I am so in!

what a great idea!


I'm definitely in on this,

disposable cameras FTW!


I'm In

It'll give me something to do


I'm 'well' up for this

It'll be at least 50% fun


Me!

As long as I get paired with someone cool, obviously.


i'll do it if i'm allowed

do you still need someone to organize it?


bump

someone say yeah or not?


i think you should be

and i also think fihiki volunteered to organise it


(but I'm not gonna stop alley from doing it

when she so obviously wants to, y'know?)


heh, honestly i would

^ project geek


we need to figure out what to do about us non-uk'ers though

i refuse to miss out on this just because i'm going home for the summer


Where is home?

Postage to Europe is only a few quid. No biggie.


and America?


yeah home is norway

a normal stamp for postcards etc is only 50p. i dont think it's that horribly expensive to america either but i cant remember.


I don't mind doing it at all

so long as I don't have to organise it before this Thursday.
Meh, I don't mind!


I'd maybe even quite enjoy it.

Oman, I'd get first dibs on who I wanted.
Oh yeah.


nah, you have to do it randomly

s'only fair--and if you pick one yourself you change the whooooooole overall outcome

(sorry if this posts like 3 times, it keeps saying it hasn't gone through)


Haha, yeah, I know.

I'll just use a random-fixture generator thing.


yeah i've just seen

and might i add, let it run more than the weekend? so the weekday folks have a chance at it. and maybe do the photos over a two week period in case people don't have a lot of time or keep forgetting it one week.


drop a pm to fihiki!

She said she was up for it but i dinnae ken.

<3

THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME.


I'm in

this is the official sign-up place right? yay.

also, my photos probably won't be amazing


this sounds ace

definitely im in


I've been told to sign up

So yeah. I'm in.


Ok i'm now officially IN

just incase i miss the main thread where it's all done. I'm gonna take loads of pictures of my willy but it'll look like many different ones. I've got the whole multi colour/dimensions thing going on. It's like the tardis.


Once on a school trip,

my friend stole another kids disposable camera and took some filthy pictures with it.

We were in year 6 at the time, I don't know if that makes it better or worse?


Can

I please join in too?


BUMP
