Timmy T-Rex ‘snapped’ by NEWS24.com

Jun 9, 2010 | A day in my life, Blog

Timmy T-Rex is famous!!! Well, alright, I have to admit he’s NOT quite in the same league as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, for now, BUT he’s just been featured in a photograph on NEWS24.com

HOW did this happen? Well it seems that my little nephew dragged him along for a train ride, and it wasn’t just any old train!





South Africa is at fever pitch as the Soccer World Cup 2010 is starting on Friday and my brother Raymond and his family were ‘snapped’ by NEWS24.com as they were among the first ever passengers to ride on the Gautrain, the multi-million dollar rapid rail link recently launched in Johannesburg.
Ray sent me this link to the actual NEWS24.com web page (see image 9) – and I was soooooooo excited to see Timmy T-Rex being carried off the Gautrain by my gorgeous little nephew!

OK so you CAN spot him, can’t you?



Party Animal has just pointed out that HE was ‘snapped’ hanging out at the Melbourne Stitches and Craft show, and I haven’t the heart to tell him, that the S&C Show is a yearly event and not a world first.

Hey, I just had a thought, by now there must be some funky friends in some pretty famous places around the world, I wonder which funky friend can be ‘snapped’ in the most famous place!

If you have a Famous Funky Friends Photo, please send it in to me – the race is on to be the MOST FAMOUS funky friend, and so far…

…it’s gotto be Timmy T-REX on the train!

Cheers,

Pauline.


Hey, I am sooooo excited, Kath from South Africa has posted her FAMOUS FUNKY FRIENDS PHOTO on facebook, and I am going to paste it here too as it it absolutely divine!

THANKS KAth!

Kath says: Well we couldn’t get Honey to the World Cup, so we brought the World Cup home… laduuuuuuuuma!


…to Honey aka Ayoba, proudly South African… if a little amateurish, not to mention gaudy!!! 🙂


I wonder where the next Famous Funky Friends Photo is going to be????
