we love the 70's

[stephen]

jaki has just brought back the last of our old photos which we've had in storage in england for years. weren't cameras crap in the old days.
here's me and my mate in fancy london town sometime in the 70's. (i haven't smoked for 30 years so that gives me the idea that it was the 70's)

i think we fancied ourselves as sal paradise and dean moriarty at the time....

[Clara]

They're brilliant pictures - could work as an album cover!

 

[Sirens]

you were quite the cool dude

 

[stephen]

less of the were!

 

[Sirens]

did you go to Kings College?

 

[stephen]

no. it's a complete coincidence that the photo was taken 'on the road' just outside it.

Not really thinking along the line of sal paradise mate.

Heres me in the 70's. I'm thinking of digging out the denim shorts again 8) (notice the generation gap Stephen )

 

[stephen]

thankfully, denim shorts like that were still rationed when i was a kid in the 50's

Very sharp quality for a photo nearly 40 years old. What make of camera was it....

Late 70s. Sis Buckley and I.

come on bez, pay attention, the fascia of the vw polo mk1 which was only produced from 75 to 79 should give you a clue that the photo is not 40 years old. the camera was a canon ae1 btw - photo by my girlfriend jaki
