Nice to see you're making pictures now too clubmeister, I love the first one, Eli trying innocently to be nice and not quite getting it right.

By the way Dongregg I've just got the rabbit ears one, that's clever I'm almost hitting myself now for not seeing it sooner .

You both intrigued me, – what are the rabbit ears?

Ha ha! I'm surprised that one so young as BH got it and no one else. Rabbit ears are the antennae that sat on a 1950s TV set to get better reception. They mostly didn't get as good reception as a roof-mounted antenna, such as the one Thundy-Mindy got stuck on. When you got all "snow" on your TV screen, it meant reception was bad, so you fiddled with the rabbit ears until you got a good (snow-free) image.Clubmeister wrote:"I thought you like it"

I thought it might be funny because rabbit ears persisted in places where there was no cable or no antenna on the apartment building, and who knows what conditions Eli and Oskar would be living under after they left Blackeberg.

I know very well about the antenna you say. We used it actively in the past, but it has no personal nikname in USSR

Okay, then, maybe Eli and Oskar went to USSR for a while before they went to Barcelona.Clubmeister wrote:I know very well about the antenna you say. We used it actively in the past, but it has no personal nikname in USSR

I can't read the bottom photo. Can someone explain what it says, or offer a suggestion? I'm on a mobile, so that might be why.BravoHotel wrote:

I like the movie better, but the best part of the book was the bananas.
