Yippie skippie! Good catch Wendy :D What you saw was probably Fred, sparkly gold-garbed Vegas Ed, and probably the newest edition, Butler (with his polka dot bandana), his newest brother, which Liz gifted to LC in Sligo. Alas, Ned (Fred's little brother) has not been seen since Columbus, Ohio :cry: That's what he gets for monkeying around.
Eagerly waiting for the photo Wendy.

Warmest regards,
Mary

Yay Wendy! I tried to focus in on them at Sligo but the angle wasn't right and the little guys usually always get that special "stage seating"! Looking forward to your photo!!

Sorry to hear about Ned's apparent demise. This guy was wearing a red neckerchief so yes, I guess it was Butler.

I see Jarkko has beaten me to it!! His picture was taken from much closer up than mine though I did get a clear shot.

I saw the guys on Friday and Sunday. It seems they watched all three shows from the same spot.

Wendy, didn't see if from you link, but found it here viewtopic.php?f=44&t=22703&start=15#p244513. That is indeed Fred, Liz's Sligo Butler, and Vegas Ed. Still eagerly waiting for you to put up your photo.

Sorry Mary - I seem to have lost half the link in my post - now corrected. My picture is very similar to Jarkko's. I'll post it when I have the technology to reduce the size of the file!!

try this
-right click on photo you want to post, then
-open with
-paint
-image
-resize
-try 20% horizontal, 20% vertical
-click 'okay'
Should be able to upload the photo now. Know that when you resize this and hit okay, you won't be able to get the original size again (not that I ever need to). If you need the original size for whatever reason, make a duplicate of that photo and resize only one.

Thanks Mary. Saves messing about with Photoshop (which I don't have on this machine).

Here we go: here's the boys enjoying the evening sun at Friday night's concert.

Must get back to the packing now - we're off to Denmark tonight for the 36th Tonder Festival!

Hey, Wendy. That is a great shot. It shows the Fred & Co gang in context. And what a lucky vantage point they have. :D

No sign of Fred and the boys in Florence but they were joined by a new friend courtesy of gallina. Don't know what his / her (wouldn't that be fun for the boys?) name is but the monkey was carried off stage at the end of the show by Javier Maas, presumably to be introduced to Fred, Vegas Ed and Butler.

Part of me feels really silly for saying this, but wouldn't it be nice if gallina's addition is a "girl"! The boys will be so happy! ;-)
