Glad I'm not an apple.  Emma, field, Tisbury, waiting for a steam excursion. 1988

Trivia: Global warming new?  A group of other guys took their gear just over the next hill for a 'better' shot to include the bend and the station - and got drenched. Here it stayed sunny all day!

I took ages setting up my outdoor studio - basically a lot of chunks of fibre-board from my never completed bedroom railway, and iffy curtaining - and forgot about the background. 1964 I think. Sell on ebay as art now. Had three or four guitars - not sure this was one of them.

Trivia: The monkey was a gift from Ian (Powell) from one of his trips back from Hong Kong or singapore when still in the services; I remember there was a plastic submarine too!.

Auntie Beatie, 134 Zetland St. 1963.

Lifeguard, free-spirit, landlady

Preston Station 1964. Andrew and Alan on day out by train (two months before they closed the line).

Trivia: In the background is the Park Hotel once connected to the platforms by portico and footbridge (just visible behind the water column). The council purchased the whole site for offices and added, in '67, a multi-story car park, since demolished in connection with the reversion to the building's original purpose.

Jim and turkey, Zetland St. Christmas 1964

Trivia: The drawered worktop/cupboard came from Auntie Beatie, and is the origin of the joke about the furniture moving from house to house - the fridge (£5) came from somewhere Toni worked in Grange Rd (the Redfords) Different times.

Garden Rly Completion ceremony, (not actually sure it ever was) Zetland St 1965

Brad, Andrew, Alan (It was Guiness!)

Trivia: The glasses - part of a full matching set of tableware - were state organized 'loot' from Germany. Although never a lefty, I couldn't understand how stealing ordinary people's property could be 'right')
