my blue jumperAt one time this was my favourite jumper (late 80′s? early 90′s?). My best friend Brian had a matching one in black and grey.

By the time this photo was taken my jumper was all grubby, threadbare, saggy and misshapen (long in the arm, short in the body). And a little bit whiffy.

Minutes later it ended up in a skip.

family group 2Here’s Nanny, Mavis, Avril, Bunny and some other bloke clearly on holiday somewhere. Taken on the same day as this shot judging by the outfits.

Photo found in an envelope with a postcard from Avignon with the song Sur le pont d’Avignon on it, so maybe everyone went to France? Or it could quite easily be Margate for all I know.
