The caption 'competition' is still open. This is the original posting

>I promised you all a BIG one.

At last I've managed to sum up the courage to publish this photo. Some
say you will need a sick bag to view this one  - and they are just the
kind ones! Here it is
http://mikehughes627.fotopic.net/p52922253.html

Having asked you to send in your various captions after I've posted
photos of our members (and visitors) I must now stand in the firing line
myself. So this is the next 'caption competition'.

I know I probably don't have to tell you that you can be a rude as you
like. I'll publish the ones that are suitable for general consumption
with the final one being posted to the site. This time the decision is
*mine* <

Here are some of the replies I've received. Can you do better?

"well its the best pic we could get, what with all the light shining off
his head!"

"this keyboard is too small for my podgy fingers"

Geeze, you are about my size... Skinny!!!!! Just about as handsome too.

"Tell me again. How many times do I press this key to get to the naked
ladies?"

Spotted Mick gets his just desserts!

'After only ever living life as a 'Trekkie', Mike sat for hours trying
to figure
why he couldn't 'beam' the flat car down!'

'Oh!  A train simulator, now how do I find a loco?'

'Now I now what they mean about exciting pictures on the internet!'

'So many buttons!  I'm only used to two knobs on my Etch-a-Sketch!'

'Mike spent hours trying to change the picture - not realising that
someone
had stuck a photo of this screen-shot on to his screen!'

How do I turn this bloody thing off?

Wow, look at this weird train.

"After a mix up with sugar while making the tea, Mike is only allowed
remote access to the layout from a safe distance for his own
protection."

Dad gum, man.  You make me look like Adonis.   TAXI !

May contain traces of irony.  Contents liable to settle after posting.

Staff of the Natural History Museum investigate claims that "the
missing link" has been found alive in uk.transport. A spokesman said
"There may even be a number of adults and juveniles in some kind of
social or family group. The really exciting news is that they posses
what we would recognise as rudimentary language skills. It seems they
must have had contact with higher humans sometime during the Anglo-
Saxon period but then withdrew into the denser forested areas. They
obviously do not have the brain capacity to develop the language
further. It seems that the ongoing march of development, possibly
linked with global warming, has brought them out into the open again".

ROTFL

I *really* like that one.
<serious mode on>
Far better than the usual inane, dumb answers we see posted by some on
here :-)
<serious mode off>

It's a shame that it's probably too big to go in as a caption on my
fotopic site :-)))

After several days of experimentation, he realised that a photograph of
a bulldozer set into a wagon would not, after all, create the desired
illusion.
