Actually, no… I’ve already seen that picture at NIFSTD. I was just hoping shameless flattery would get me another one. Too much to hope for, I suppose, but seeing it again was worth the effort. 🙂 ---

Too much to hope for, I suppose, but seeing it again was worth the effort. 🙂 😉 Well, there’s [this one](http://www.kat22.com/londope_03/images/Londope045.jpeg) where I’m surrounded by Doper men. Me looking [incredibly thoughtful](http://www.kat22.com/londope_2004_01_24/images/34.jpg) for a change. And a [not very good](http://www.kat22.com/londope_2004_01_24/images/c01.jpg) picture, showing my cleavage supporting a 3/4 full pint glass. 😉 Alas, I’m not naked in any of them though. ---

All three pictures are nice but you’re especially gorgeous in the first one. ---

> [@Aesiron](#): > > All three pictures are nice but you’re especially gorgeous in the first one. _blushes_ Thank you. 🙂 And I must say, you’re particularly hot yourself. ---

While I appreciate the sentiment, I must ask: have you even \*seen \*me? You’re the fourth Doper to say I’m hot in as many days. I had no idea my pictures were that popular. :dubious: ---

I’m fairly sure I’ve seen pictures of you from Dopefests, and once on NIFSTD. ---

Aha! Caught you! You can’t say for certain that you’ve seen me so you can’t possibly know for sure that I’m hot or not! ---

Curses! Foiled! Now, you’ll just have to post a picture. So tha we can tell you for sure that you’re hot. 😉 ---

I typically loathe to post my picture anywhere outside of a Dopefest thread but since you’ve shared so many with me, I suppose I’ll make an exception just this once: [me](http://teemingmillions.com/profiles/images/aesiron/aesiron_photo1.jpg) with two of my best friends (\*\*Nocturne \*\*and **UnwrittenNocturne** ) the night before their wedding about four months ago. We were all a bit drunk at the time so pardon the vacuous expressions on our faces. ---

Hey \*\*Angua \*\* it seems you’ve got dibs on **Aesiron**. **Aesiron** , is there enough to go around?? 🙂 To be honest, you’re what I imagined. And yes, very cute. I’ll see if I can hunt down a decent picture. I m extremely camera-phobic, so i have very few pics of myself. > [@Aesiron](#): > > I’m a bit inclined to take your word but I still think the other two are insane since I doubt I’d be single if I were so cute. HEY! I represent this remark. ---

> [@Elenia28](#): > > Hey \*\*Angua \*\* it seems you’ve got dibs on **Aesiron**. It would appear so. And if he thinks you’re insane for thinking he’s cute, then I must be insane too. Unfortunately, I’ll just have to admire from afar. Not only do I already have a boyfriend, I’m an ocean away. ---

> [@CandidGamera](#): > > Hey, Elenia - you never answered my question. What inspired the sudden act of bravey? Quite literally, I have been absolutely swamped by work this week, two of our volunteers have turned into prima donnas and one apparently has been sleeping with another Board Chair! :eek: I want to take half of today off and to do that I’ve been killing myself. Our metal futon at home is reaching the End of Days (well its days, anyway) And I desperately needed to do something silly and fun. So I thought I’d try…something completely different than my personality. And I must say, I had a great time! 😃 ---

You guys realize I’m the one in white on the left, right? **Angua** : How far away are Birmingham and London from each other? I might be visiting a friend in Brighton in the next year and a half and if I do wind up going, I’m hoping to get some London area Dopers to meet up at a pub for a mini 'fest. **Elenia** : You’re single? You’ve mentioned an SO in previous posts. And I look forward to the eventual picture, assuming you don’t ‘forget’ to look for it. ---

But no harm in flirting in a message board. And as for your picture, you’re butt-ugly. (I’m kidding). Is that what you wanted to hear? 😉 It certainly seems like you’re pushing for that answer.
