« on: June 22, 2007, 22:20:42 »
I thought it might be fun to show some pictures of us all as kids or when we were younger

Me with my first dog Bob,

Note the very blond hair, just starting to curl, about 1944 something like that, clothes on ration.XX Jeannine pretty old well handled photo.

Jannine, can't believe that photo. Our dog at home was your dogs twin and his name was Bob!! He died at age of 14. OK will take up your challenge but may have to get my John to scan some pics as my old pics are in frames or albums. This thread could be a scream!! ;D

The photos are great! Bet you are the little un with the smile on your face Lorna. Tim, your mother is so elegent, and loved the rest of those little faces, what gorgeous hair Dandelion.  Here is me when I was three.  It was before colour photographer was widespread, and when they had to colour the pics in by hand. Men were always coming around the doors and taking photographs. My mother said I hated them all and always looked very suspiciously at them, so on every photo when I was little I was scowling. Me and my elder brother had just been to a birthday party and had cake in our hands.  ;D busy_lizzie

Your avatar doesn't do your hair justice, Dandelion.

None of us look underfed, do we!

It's such a long time since I've tried posting a picture and have only done one or two before so this might not work....

Oh dear - I got it wrong - not sure what I've done (or not done) can't remember what I should do either!

             :'(                   :'(                  :'(                   :'(                   :'(

I just copied the picture from my computer and uploaded it to Photobucket then copied it including the URL then pasted it here - obvious wrong!

I'm wondering if it's because I've not paid Dan the £10. (assume it's still that amount).......forgot to do it especially as I rarely post pics. Maybe a 'block' is put on you if you've not paid - could that be it do you think please?

got his address somewhere if I can find it - will send the money off then at least I'm covered for the odd times I want to add a pic.

Tim you haven't changed a bit!    ;D

This is me with Neddy taken when I was about 2 so that would have been in 1960.  G x

This is me aged 4 in the garden when we were living in Asmara.  I loved climbing trees, and I'm looking happy because I'd just climbed that tree !!!  (Not very high, but it was a long way for me - I remember it well)

For some reason I can't attach pics any more - - - Dan, help????
