[#2357161]

A canny bit younger. Just had these scanned from 35mm slides (thanks for your offer Druidh but the shop was closer)
Me, about 6, on holiday at Oban...

[img] [/img]

Scotland again, about 11...

[img] [/img]

Aged 17 (I'm in the background!!) with my 1st true love (the Bulto that is, but that lass was my 1st sh*g!)

[img] [/img]

Now about 22-24, can't remember exactly but circa 1979 on the 1st bike I rode the Devils Staircase on.

[img] [/img]

Bloody things have been in the loft for 15 years or more & I'm reasonably pleased with the quality.
lets see your photo's of your bygone era!

Bass & Bligh in Harrogate, 57p each.

Martin Lampkin wore one, if it was good enough for him it was good enough for me!

Not half!!
She used to wear sussies & basques & stuff too, not with sandals though. 😆

That 1st one was about 1963, I'm sure my Dad had some of the Forth Road bridge before it met in the middle, can't find it though. 😥

Druidh, if only I'd known!
