Old photos

My Uncle left me three old photos of me as a nipper. I've seen them before and my Mum has copies but it gave David and Karen a smile.


Here I am in 1961, still in the terrible twos. Probably taken at Turners in Newcastle.


I think I was 4 or 5 when this one was taken, in our upstairs Flat in Farndale Road.


And finally, aged 7 or so, with my NHS specs and my teeth starting to come in. I can remember this, it was in our downstairs flat (underneath the old one) and it was taken by a Photographer called Larry Dee who lived in the next street.
David laughed at this one and keeps calling me Harry Potter. Karen says this is an early manifestation of my guilty face...

Little British boy, in his tie.

Dressing up was normal for these formal photos. I was totally indifferent to what I wore in those days, some things don't change much...
