A photo a day from the famous East Midlands city, its surroundings, and wherever the photographic journey takes me.

My First Car
Some of you, especially Jilly over in Monaco knows I like old cars. It probably stems from this picture of me as a little boy in the 1960's, standing next to my dad's car. A Morris, but not sure what model. This was originally a slide that I have converted to a JPG through my new toy, which can convert negatives & slides to digital pictures.

Hi Gail's Man
ReplyDeleteI have been looking at your blog for a while and it's fab. Sorry about leaving this as a coment but I couldn't work out ow to email you directly. I have been tasked to explore Nottingham youth blogging as a project and have popped a bit about this blog online to show what can be achieved. The link is here http://youthopportunity.wordpress.com/blog-ideas/ - I am writing to check if you are OK with this link.
Kind regards
Alan
