This is my mother’s cousin’s mother.

Family picture… / Wedding day.
from a very old photo album I found in my great Grandmothers barn
Taken during my Aunt Linda’s wedding when I was a ring bearer and Paula was the flower girl. I had a fit before I went to the church, but did fine once I was there…
We used this Austin A40 to deliver newspapers for Mister Butler the owner of the News Agency. That’s my brothers and sister in the pic and the blond guy is an old mate.
A very old photo of my dad taken in an apartment in New York tinkling on a mandolin about 1936. The photo is in very good condition and is not digitally altered.
Edinburgh Scotland, circa 1950 (no date on the picture). All dressed up and ready to go. “Uncle” David was a very close friend of my parents and an all round great guy. He taught me how to shoot an air rifle and I became quite a good shot under his patient tutelage. We used to practice on empty beer cans and I never questioned why there were so many of them. Dad was in the Royal Navy and the Royal Indian Navy. “Uncle”David was a P.O.W. camp survivor and never really recovered from the ordeal. He died when he was quite young. I think that they’re possibly dressed up for David’s wedding.
