The P.I. O.G.C. – Old Gentlemen’s Club…
Are you a member?
What is this club all about?
How does one apply for membership?
Is it strictly males only?

The OGC??? You’re one of it’s members John…if you were to believe recent posts. I’ll give you a rundown of its members and what you need.
Firstly you need a minimum of 3000 posts. It goes without saying that if you make this amount of posts you must be a great photographer and people look up to you…like you can have an nfl-fan fan. You are the expert and your thoughts weigh heavier on a discussion than, say, a professional.
If you look up the people on the PI member list you’ll see who’s a member:
– In at 7 is PTB, otherwise known as the Ambassador. A thoughtful sort of guy and very knowledgeable…well he would be, being a bloke.
– At 6 is Expresso (he hates being called that…hee.hee). Currently beating the boards in Dublins finest theatres he has also acquired a nice little farm. Uses a Nikon but appears front of camera more frequently of late.
– At 5 is me – quiet, unassuming and according to nfl, has the impressions of barbed wire in my arse from sitting on the fence so much.
– At 4 is Mark – all hail Mark. We can’t really put a characteristic on Mark – coz we don’t want a ban. He doesn’t like boats though… :sick
– In at 3 is nfl-fan. Timid sort of guy…rarely says anything…but would test the patience of a saint and is probably the most moderated member of PI. But he owns about more cameras than the rest of PI put together…what a guy.
– At 2 – what can we say about this guy only that he’s Rob. Multi talented and a professional and he knows the words to Willy Wonka songs. He’s even got tinted windows that double as a ND filter…cool. 8) He’s married to Rita.
– The grand master of the club is JB7…the daddy. Over 6000 posts of lyrical ranting that would make him eligible for Poet Laureate. Currently trying to give nfl a hug. He doesn’t like people near him when he’s photographing though…it ruins the image…his, not the cameras.Applying for club membership would be Jessthedog (Sinead) and Mick451 (Mick) based on the fact that they defy convention and regularly cross nfl. Jess might have difficulty on account of her being a woman. Gizzo (Gigi) also hovers around the club and should be included coz he has connections, Italian family connections. :shock: Others who have applied but have been unsuccessful so far have been Zoltan the hairless, Captain Caveman the broadcaster, stcstc the dude, IR Martin and the dynamic duo from Donegal. However, an appearance on a Lo-fi day out would boost ones chances of becoming a member.
Hope this helps, member.
Alan, the barbed-wire-arse member.
Just in the door… and what a post by Wonka who is now officially off the fence.
So we have 7 members. Would it be fair to say that all 7 of us are condescending and patronizing?
We should rent a room and get ourselves a Snooker Table.
J
Yeah, a snooker table and matching smoking jackets. The delivery of Leicas…or just black cameras with red dots are currently in transit from China, via a local supplier.
Condescending and Patronising – who said that? Who they think they are? How dare they. Meh.
I’d say we have junior members though like Jessthedog (on probation on account of her being a woman) and Mick because he has an exhibition but these are members purely by association and wouldn’t have the knowledge or expertise of those over 3000 posts.
A nice tae pot and some delicate fine China tea cups too…. for those ‘tee hee hee’ moments.
And that’s why you’re not a member. You just don’t appreciate the finer things in life. Now, go pour yourself a daiquiri and contemplate your future.
Alan.
given the weather, I’d rather go for a mohito in my garden.
