Inspired by Mali, I figured it would be fun to have a 'post photos of yourself' thread - only one from when you were on the cusp of adulthood, leaving childhood behind to explore the big wide world.


Hmm.. I don't even know if any photos like that exist of me. Maybe my parents have some when they were using film up when they wanted to get a roll developed (I think it's the only reason she has so many cat photos).. I'll have to ask.

Mind you, not much has changed. I just went from skinny runt to fat c.. er, chap.

Mine are probably as bad as Craster's, but I don't have any scanned in. I'll see if I can get my parents to do the honours.

I think possibly? I'm trying to think what group of people I knew who would have been in your year. Let's throw some random names out:

Chris and Angie
Tom and Amy
Emily, Jenny

After edit: In fact, would you have done Physics with Chris?

That's right. A goatee sounds right then.

I saw that pic you posted of you in the audience at Stewart Lee's comedy vehicle and thought "he looks like someone I knew".

We definitely have to get another board game meet organised now then!

There are no pictures of me from the ancient past. There was a set of pics from NYE 1999/2000 that I want someone to scan in. That was a fun night.

I refuse* to post any photos of me as a mature student when I thought that letting my hair grow long would be an interesting experiment. It was, but for all the wrong reasons. This was only six years ago, and some are on Facebook.

I too went through a long hair phase in my late teens, though I believe all photographic traces of that have long since been cleansed with purifying fire.

I had long hair for a few years, and hopefully will never look that daft again in my life. I got it cut off in 2006 (6/6/06, fact fans) and haven't looked back. Good riddance.

I was in my earlyish thirties and balding. I even let my beard grow longer than usual. :(

The only photos I have of me are a couple from when I was a mid-20s butter monster. I'm not posting those.

The only photos others have of me are early- and pre- teen school photos. I'm not posting those either.
