Long story short, I was aquatinted with someone who was able to give my BTTF pamphlet to a man who is friends, with & was working on the play Death of A Salesman starring Mr. Lloyd. in October I went to see the play, this pamphlet was given to the man who offered to get it signed for me. A few weeks went by, and I then received this in the mail. It ended up traveling to California with Christopher. It was then that he got the chance to sign it!
Huge Christopher Lloyd & BTTF fan. I nearly fainted when I received this back. For those few weeks of waiting, I was sure I wasn't going to get it the pamphlet back, let alone have it signed!
Unforgettable experience.

Me: "Doc! Doc, come in!"
Doc: "Larry, come in."
Me: "Listen, Biff's guys chased me into the gym and they're gonna jump...me!"
Doc: "Then get out of there!"
Me: "No, Doc, not me, the other me...the one that's up on stage playing Johnny B. Goode!"
Doc: "Great Scott!"
It's Air Guitar day on Flickr Group Roulette. I made my first attempt at cloning and recreated a scene from the all time great Back to the Future Part II.
Though I took an ounce of creative license and substituted my name for Marty's. Here's the original dialogue.
Love the fluffy dice!
As of early 2007, a Delorean in good to excellent condition can be had for around $20,000 to $29,000. Mint-condition cars can fetch up to $50,000.
There are an estimated 6,000 surviving DMC-12s today. Only 23 right-hand drive De Loreans were ever produced; these cars were converted from left-hand drive models by a specialized company in the UK.
I had a VW Scirocco that from the front looked like a DMC-12. Giorgetto Giugiaro designed the DMC-12 as well as Nikon cameras (F3>6) and a Bontempi Minstrel musical keyboard.
The MCM Birmingham Comic Con was held at The NEC Birmingham on the weekend of 19th to 20th November 2016.
It was the last MCM Comic Con of 2016, and the second of the year in Birmingham.
I visited it (with a General Admission ticket) on Sunday 20th November 2016.
There was many people here cosplaying in costumes as their favourite characters from movies, TV and comics etc.
In Hall 5.
Back to the Future - DeLorean with replica props from the movies.
In this shot the connection between the 'scope and the rifle is easier to see. Any suggestions for making it more . . . elegant would be appreciated.
No doubt, Doc Brown will say he had the right of way in the time/space continuum, while George the Time Traveler will blame the bloody Americans for driving on the wrong side of the time stream.
The Doctor will just shake his head while muttering "Amateurs..."
And worse of all, NONE of them will have any insurance, even from the company with the gekko.
Complete with the drunken lamp-post and newly installed palisade fencing, Network Rail 'Stoneblower' passes along the old GC section of the Mexborough to Woodburn junction section of double-track line just outside Rotherham Central. This unit was expected to be a Track Unit but the working was a bit odd in that it appeared to 'sit' at Woodburn Junction for around 6 hours without doing much. It has come along the GC section of track through Thrybergh from the Doncaster D.C.E. (Departmental, Carriage & Engineers?) sidings and is making its way to a stop at Woodburn Junction; the daily, this week, 6U37 working. Some details of one of the class of Network Rail 'on-track' machines, this one a 'Stoneblower', can be had from the Harsco website-

Travel Speed100km/h(60mph) max
Average Output440m/hr(1,400 ft./hr)
Measuring Speed16 km/h (10 mp) max
Track Lifting & Slewing0 to 80mm(0 to 3.2 in.)
Stone Capacity16tonnes(18 tons)
Stone Size20mm(0.8 in.)
and here, a Youtube video shows one of these units in action on the line, clearing out the ballast, cleaning and replacing it-

PAssing by on a local service at about the same time is a Northern Rail class 142, 142028 2R11, on the Lincoln Central to Adwick service. Someone needs to remove that blo*** post; looks as if its already had a 'nudge'. The second picture now shows the change since the old line-side concrete section wall was replaced as few weeks ago with tall, 7foot. palisade fence; the Booth advertising signs being re-installed on the new fence. Hearing a distinctive sound behind the camera, a quick whizz round revealed this fine looking 1955, Packard Clipper Custom Constellation hardtop coupe, rolling along through the continuing roadworks on centenary way; a more modern version of comfortable traction approaching the camera on the left in the form of a jet-black Land Rover. In front of the Packard Clipper a car of complete opposite style and reminiscent of another 50/60s classic, in the form of a minuscule Fiat 'bubble car'... sorry!
Use red/cyan glasses to view in 3D.
Made from two images taken while driving by. This was an "accidental stereo pair" - I just happened to have two shots close enough together to create the anaglyph. Next time I'm in the neighborhood I'll grab some proper 3D pairs with better stereo separation and vertical alignment. Best viewed large.
