Just going through some old photos at home and I found it. My Mum used to go on trips around Europe back in the fifties, so I'm guessing that it was taken on one of those. No idea who the bloke in the photo is. Similarly:

My mother (in the foreground) got her driving licence before tests were required so I guess the L plate was for her friend Dorothy whose car it was.

What a lovely looking Tilly, the Austin survives best from the original versions (Austin/Hillman/Standard). Although there were some Morris 10 versions too.
They are very much sought after these days. _________________ Various Rootes Vehicles. |

I'm currently working through a flickr collection : https://www.flickr.com/photos/foundin_a_attic/
Some interesting stuff in there, some older stuff, lots of general photos and, for some reason, images of old Teletext screens.

Prior to that I was trying to keep up with the stuff that another flickr user, "trainsandstuff" was posting, but they have recently announced that they're moving it all to another sharing site as it will be better to find stuff. _________________ 1976 Vauxhall HP Firenza, 1976 Vauxhall Sportshatch (x2), 1986 Audi coupe quattro, 2000 Audi TT |
