I have been at this conference today and tomorrow I will be giving my paper… ‘Chilli, stylist’s own: Online presentations of the Domestic’. I really enjoyed meeting people from across the university today and it was great chatting in the breaks and finding out what everyone is up to.
This week has been fun on Flickr. I took a series of photos on Monday, telling a particular story:
Then TT uploaded this image to Flickr (while I sorted out the alcohol). Strange though because having uploaded that picture of alphabetti spagetti on toast (don’t ask) TT got abuse from other Flickr people … which he had to delete. All very weird as I would have thought the picture was pretty inoffensive, but there you go. He deleted the offending comments and blocked the users from his stream, after which the offending parties’ fiends all started with the aggro. Quite rare on Flickr but there you go.
Anyway, that’s a glimpse of our domestic life this week.
I don’t get it… what were people saying and what sparked their comments??

First of all … sorry for late reply Chris … and in answer to your question, the other Flickr people were very angry with TT that he had put the image in a group and had not commented on other people’s images first. This led to several people calling him a c**t. Which is a little OTT to say the least.
Yes the kangaroos are a fairly recent acquisition Anya!!
