Do you take a Photograph or a Picture?

Pheasy · Post by **Pheasy** » Mon Oct 22, 2007 9:55 am

We took our Brownie Troop to the Crayola Factory (excellent fun for the kids) on Saturday. Also we attended a Fire Brigade who taught our girls about fire safety and the best ways to escape etc. So after our 10 girls, came crawling out of a smoke filled room, I said 'Brownies, line up in front of the fire engine, I want to take a photograph'.

One of the firemen laughed at me saying 'Fire Engine?', apparently its a 'Fire Truck' :rolleyes:, then laughed again, saying 'Take a photograph?', apparently its a 'picture' :rolleyes: Well if he hadn't of been so 'hunky'

, I might of had a fight with him.

I draw pictures, and take photographs.

One day I can take a picture the other i'll take a photograph, if I am feeling really artistic I'll do both in the same day

Now with the fire truck/engine everyone knows that it should be called a big red vehicle :rolleyes:

Hope I cleared that up for you Pheasey :-4

I could ask Fireman Sam, cos he's still Welsh over here. Unlike the TellyTubbies who are now from Texas I think!

Seriously, us British really would like to take credit for TellyTubbies - its very informative and goes a long way to educating children all over the world :wah:

I actually have my very own NooNooo and a Tubby Custard Maker.

And I feel a special bond with LaLa :guitarist
