My little darling girl
Sometimes you can't always be there for someone, no matter how you try.

on Flickr there was an obsession with taking a photo of yourself every day for a year. I only did 52 weeks from my whole life span and as a protest I covered my face in all of the photos with a 365 stamp, trying to give the impression that the people around me and how they were was more important. Imagine if someone posted a group photo like that in these days of self isolation. We have lost a lot... I think Walt Whitman would have been horrified.Oh, Paul and Rob THANK YOU for those! Paul you are really lucky that you have film surviving from that period (no one we knew was the proud possessor of a movie camera!) What on earth was your father doing, bouncing a ball off your head REPEATEDLY ... fortunately, it obviously never affected your "little grey cells!"
And Rob ... I knew that you had a HUGE family, but WOW! (And I looked really carefully, but I couldn't see you in the photo ... do I need to look again?)
I'd love to join in with the happy childhood with fun family pics but my childhood wasn't a happy one so I keep no photographs to remind me of it !! You'll have to settle for some anger Instead ……..
A little quiz:
Here’s me and 2 of my 3 brothers - circa 1970? But which one is me?
