remove crease please
« on: Sunday 04 December 11 16:58 GMT (UK) »
My 89 year old batchelor great uncle has just stunned the family by admitting to having " secret" children under difficult circumstances he has kept this between himself his best friend and the now deceased mother of the children and I I guess only my delving into family archives and taking a chance on asking him if he knew who was in this photo which he had kept all this time made him decide to divulge his secret rather than taking it to the grave. He is now going to have the photo framed and displayed.   
 Thanks Laura

Hi Laura

What a great story.  I luv it.  I suppose if you are religious thats the
kind of thing you tell the Priest but in this case it was you.
Love the Guinea pig.
Good luck

Roy
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy

Hi  Laura .......Another version to add to the list.

It was nice to read the story about the children and their batchelor father.
