I've started colouring 100's of my Family photos!

https://zimnoch.smugmug.com/COLOURISED-IMAGES/ 

My Grandfather took these shots at the Lake Saranac "Winter Festival" in 1902 in upstate New York.

He lived and worked there for a couple of years with my Aunt Brenda.

(n.b.The audio at the moment is Jackson Browne)

The family rumour was that  my grandfather spent some of his time   in The States "Prospecting for gold". I really don't know about that! (sounds like bollocks to me!) But who knows? 

Uncertainty being something of a family  tradition.....

He later became a Barber in Fife:became  a Tory Councillor:joined the merchant navy and is buried in Malta.He died in 1953. He saw me once when I was a baby. So anything is possible!

All new ones will be added to this slideshow when i have processed them.Check back frequently! https://zimnoch.smugmug.com/COLOURISED-IMAGES/

Brian Highley Bio. (Festival Organiser & interviewed in this clip)

 

I went to this! Aged 18. I was working as a Student Nurse at Stansfield View Hospital in Todmorden..(must have had the weekend off). Still living with my Mum & Dad in Halifax. £3 for a weekend ticket. A bit of a shambles, but I had nothing to compare it with, so I was happy as a pig in shit!

My head was full of Friendz & OZ Magazines. Timothy Leary & Co. 8 months later I had jacked in my nurse training and gone to live & work in London (St Pauls Youth Hostel)

Highlights for me was listening to Sandy Denny singing and (god help me ) Elton John.

The Trial of Keef Starmer

I'm in pretty much the same place that I was on July1st 2016 when I took this photo.
Me & Cath were in Picadilly Gardens Manchester.At the time of the first "Chicken Coup" against Mr Corbyn.
A Protest in his support.
Other photos from that day are here: https://www.smugmug.com/gallery/n-6rBW36/

I notice on twitter today that several legal folk have offered their services free when/if it any future Trial happens.
 Keith Starmer will be forced to disclose some of his secrets?.
Bring It On!
Note this sum is made up of ordinary people making modest donations.£5's £10's seems the typical sums involved.(note :this appeal began on Thursday 23rd July )

This seems apt.taken at another Manchester demo.I mean, there is bugger all else to do for the next 4 years.May as well kick up a fuss!

Big 6 Pub :Halifax

My first bus journey in 4 months: first pub visit in 4 months.............see my photos :https://zimnoch.smugmug.com/Big-6-22nd-July-2020/

Still My Leader

You know, I am totally unreconstructed ! Over 200000 members have left the Labour Party since Keith Starmer became to new Labour Party leader in UK.

The new Series of The Apprentice  looks like shit.
