The Kitchen is Finished!
At last, some good news. You may have noticed that updates during
the first half of 2007 have been a bit thin on the ground. Well,
all I can say is that if you ever fancy re-fitting your kitchen
yourself, allow plenty of time. It's taken so many of the
weekends that I would have spent working on this website but it's
finally finished (well, there are some bits and pieces left, of course).
The other good news is yet another amazing find in the cupboard at my
mum's house. I'd always realised that there were some gaps in the
collection of railway photo's but I hadn't realised how big those gaps
were. After browsing through an envelope of 8.5"x6.5" prints, I
realised that I had never seen some of the images before. This
made me all the more positive that there were some more boxes to be
found. When I wrote down the dates of what I'd been looking at it
was clear that much of the 1950's was missing.
Digging around in the magic cupboard, I was delighted to find a box
containing all the missing prints! I haven't had time to study
them in detail but I have already found some real gems in the brief
look that I have managed. With more superb material and more time
for me to work on the site, I can assure that the Railways section will
continue to expand for the forseeable future.
