Re: Name the Forumite
No names sound like a reasonable challenge. And when we see our own photos up, perhaps we could identify them as some other person, on purpose!

Re: Name the Forumite
Just a reminder that I'll be posting the childhood photos tomorrow, so if anyone else wants to submit a photo could they please send it to me as a JPeg image today? Thanks!

Re: Name the Forumite
By the way, I'll be posting 13 photos. Hope no one is superstitious! 
I think it adds to the mystery if, from now on, people don't say whether they submitted a photo or not. Some people who said they were going to may not have done so in the end for whatever reason, and some people who haven't posted on this thread at all may perhaps have sent in a picture. When I post the pictures, I won't necessarily be putting them up in the order I received them. They will all be renamed Childhood Photo 1, Childhood Photo 2, etc., so there will be no clues in the titles.

Goes off to look at all the EBS day photos to try to gain an advantage - assuming any of those who attend the day submitted photos.
If I could live here on this secret island always and always and always, and never grow up at all, I would be quite happy
