            Do the pictures have to include IH?
            And do they have to be current?

                I'm with you on this. Not sure if I'll even manage one worthy picture (I have slightly less than half an idea at the moment), but I'll certainly enjoy seeing everyone's contributions.

                    Good questions.

                    1. There needs to be some sort of IH reference. It can be you or someone else wearing it, it can be a fansign, something spelling IH, anything at all as long as it is identifable.

                    2. The spirit of the competition is to get people involved, taking photo’s, thinking up new stuff. That being said, a photo is a photo.

                      The whole point of this forum is the people. The partial point of the competition is sharing the everyday with each other.

                      In addition creativity is encouraged.

                      Get amongst it, the pair of you.

                        OK.  I'm thinking…  I might have to set something up over the weekend as I spend so little time at home during the week.

                              But no IH at work  😞 (except perhaps if Tuesday works out for me).

                                  Tie a UHF around your face to hide your identity and break the last two letters of an IHOP sign to make it say “IH”.    😃

                                      First post!

                                      During lockdown v1.0 here in England, my good friend Marc wrote, directed, produced, and self-financed a horror/comedy feature movie “ManFish”. This weekend it was shown at an annual horror film festival in our old hometown of Romford. To those who don’t know, Romford is an East-London suburb that, putting it nicely, has a bit of a reputation. Romford is the sort of place that would regularly show up on documentaries on out of control drinking culture, social/moral decline, and a hotbed of low level crime and drug use. I think the place informs a lot of my friend Marc’s dark & surreal sense of humour.

                                      Anyway, it was amazing for Marc to have his film accepted - over 500 films applied, and only 15 were shown. The quality of the writing, cinematography, acting, were all superb. The film was sold out, and there was a huge turn out of old friends, people from my teens and twenties who I’ve not seen in years. We had a blast, got very drunk (when-in-Romford…), and to my shame I failed to take a single decent photo, which I was hoping to do.

                                      Anyway, here’s my 33-IND with a cool Manfish button, taken the next morning with a very sore head…

                                        Great story, great shirt, great start to the comp. Thanks @jerkules

                                        Also, my sympathies regarding Romford. In fact, regarding Essex in general (no offence intended @Stuart.T)

                                            Thanks @neph93 , the fact you sympathise suggests you’ve had the pleasure of visiting? Sometimes I think “surely it’s not so bad” until I spend some time in the place and remember that yes, it fu*king is 😂

                                            @endo , that’s a cool idea, I’ll pitch the idea to him. He’s currently in talks to get distributors onboard, so I expect whether he’s able to would depend on what stage of the process that’s at… would be fun though!
