I'm guessing continued leg pain?
Best of luck - hope you recover soon.

I don't have a closer view, unfortunately.

And here's a second batch of pics from the gathering after the parade during Anthrocon 2005.

For #ThrowbackThursday this week we head back in time just a little over 20 years to Anthrocon 2005. This was the post parade gathering in preparation for the group photo.
The con was held in July 2005 at the Wyndham hotel, Philadelphia.
Attendance was 2,370.

I need a wicked witch outfit.

Minnie and Daisy must continue to keep their dress and shoe collections tightly secured!

The Timmy rebuild from the later seasons is definitely better than his earlier look. I wonder if the suit still exists?
I know Doglion does as he turned up in a recent Muppet stage show and from the pics I've seen, pretty sure it was the original suit.

Oh! I forgot Doglion was in there, too. This is a great one for full bodied Muppet fans.

In fact, that gif with Lola Falana - Timmy is also in that dance sequence.

There was an ITV show from the 70s called 'Beasts' that's pretty good, too. Scripted by Nigel Kneale. One of the eps is about an actor who's pissed off because he's typecast as a rubbet monster suiter.

Some good vintage UK horror stuff made for telly - 'The Stone Tape' from the 70s, 'Oh Whistle & I'll Come to You' from the 60s, 'The Woman in Black' ( 80s version for ITV ), 'Ghostwatch' from the 90s, and the Grand Daddy of them all, 'Quatermass & the Pit' from the 50s.

That reminds me, I’ve got a pack of the vegetable ones in the fridge. That’ll be tomorrow’s dindins.

I'd succumb quite quickly, too. The fancier a chocolate, the more I'm curious about the texture as I eat it.

As a kid I had this similar book ( actually, it's still in the house somewhere ). Lots of lovely pics of various creatures - crypto stuff like bigfoot etc and also from folklore and cinema/tv. Went through a period in the late 80s/early 90s where I read a lot of cryptozoology stuff.
