Gorbash
I received this lovely sleepy dragon for Father’s Day, it didn’t take long to name him “Gorbash” one of the dragons from “Flight of Dragons”

Postcard to a friend
As a collector of postcards I’m loath to actually use them but rather keep them safe in albums, however there are always exceptions,
this postcard by John Pulham – Fairies at Abbots Bridge, Bury St Edmunds reminds me of a postcard fair last year when I purchased several cards by John Pulham,
regrettably due to the current situation this annual fair held each May has been cancelled but the memories of several purchases are still strong and as such the card is worth sharing.
Here’s Looking At You, Kid
We look good, don’t we? And we always will.
Because we’ll always have Paris.
Sounds much better than quoting Redruth, but that said 😉
About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
