A splendid family day yesterday with Gill and Nigel's wedding at a hotel just outside the tiny city of St Asaph in North Wales - great as ever to have an excuse for a family get together and a reminder from cousin Mark that I need to get some of the old Hardy family docs scanned, another one on the to do list then. We had a leisurely breakfast then drove to Ellesmere Port and had my haircut, then to M&S for a brew and some food shopping, also found a pair of gloves which might suit photography and warmth, always trying new ones in search of the holy grail, warmth and workability. Then it was the Polio Fellowship meeting, I'll have to do the minutes as our sec couldn't get there, we did get some dates settled for events and some more things on that lengthening to do list. I'm now well over the half way mark with the Online cine film and it has been very enjoyable with some remarkable footage in Spain and Portugal as well as the main subjects in this batch London 1960s to 70s. I'll probably catch up with Peter at the archive in Shrewsbury later this month. I've also got a wealth of PMP films degitised and can continue with their scanning as time permits. I'll wait and see the weather outlook for next week and decide possible film locations. I'm trying to push back some of the early year plum spots such as Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool etc until there is better light. Tomorrow we have blood letting at Holmes Chapel Health centre all part of the annual MOT process for us oldies. I'm loading the clip on Youtube tonight for the second part of the Birmingham bus and tram coverage. Here are a few shots of family at the wedding yesterday Comments are closed.
