I can't post pics of my club, but this is what I do:

 

[Chirripa]

me? sorry no pic but I work in a hospital laundry. We do get some interesting things 'in-the-wash'. No rockets no slinky aircraft. But we take a pride in what we do. We had a mobile phone in our big (80 kilo capacity) washing machine. A patient had lost it. We took it out and it was 'ringing' on vibrater but it would not answer.
She got it back.

Gotta keep the riff-raff and drunks under control.

Who doesn't like fresh clean sheets?

Thanks guys...

Sorry Alan!

My colleague snapped this one yesterday of me pulling of some circuit boards and swapping them out of an irrigation controller at the end of a cul de sac. I heard the camera shutter sound byte, and then the chuckle. I had just taken off my flannel and did not realize I was dealing with a wardrobe malfunction. I smiled for the shot! I hope it does not break your computer screen.
