Normally I do not post photos of persons, but as this is a while ago, I hope to get away with it. However, should you recognize yourself and you are not happy with this photo being shown here, just drop me a line and I will remove it.
A surprising sight on the same road as the Carina was this early 70s DS, i love these, they still look futuristic today!
London Transport's 1973 Stock 630V DC 4th rail 6-car emu leaves Osterley, 6 April 2023, on a Heathrow - Cockfosters service, with DM No.241 trailing. 87.5 half sets of 3-car units were built which always operated as 6 car sets. The 1973 Stock was built by Metro Cammell (Washwood Heath) in 1974-77 for the Piccadilly Line, replacing 1959 Stock. They are currently the second oldest trains in daily public use operating on the Underground (after the Bakerloo's 1972 Stock).
A nice example, which looks to be in everyday use too, must say i do rather like the sandglow colour so many BL products of this era were finished in.
i've always loved this school picture, because I actually had a broken arm -- I wanted my picture taken with the sling around my neck, but the photographer insisted not!
I have stuck in many people's memory from that year in school, because I actually broke BOTH arms, sequentially (not at the same time) -- first one I fell down on the school playground at a parent-teacher conference night -- skinned my knee & didn't even notice my arm, til the next morning when mom decided I was holding my arm strangely and asked if I could rotate my wrist -- I looked blankly at her and said, "no, why?" so I'd fractured my right wrist -- spent six weeks in a sling, and then the day after I got it off, I fell down rollerskating and broke my left arm.
yes, i am clumsy.
my grandmother crocheted that dress for me -- my sister had one with a sort of raspberry color instead of the green.
taken at Van Auken Elementary School, in palo alto, 1973 -- i was probably still six, soon to turn seven...
