    in this one the tree/arbour has been scratched off the negative - badly ! Shane, it's a really good,as with the other in the collection, a fabulous family portrait. Getting into garments such as these would have needed ... domestic servants !

    as we have all seen before, finery backed with tatty carpets (!) ... maybe that was another impact of "the emergency" (!). welcome back after the new holiday ...
  • John Spooner said:
    A good schoolfriend of mine many decades ago in Lincolnshire was a certain Tony Ward. His father (Noel, I think, but I may be wrong) was a doctor who originally came from New Ross (and he was a very good billiards player). I wonder ...

    P.S. I can't see any family resemblance between the gents pictured and my friend. Quite the opposite in fact.
