The last game I attended at Carrow Road with my Dad.
I was on leave from my base at Laarbruch in Germany, finalising my plans for the divorce of my first wife, and judging by pictures of that time, looking pale and gaunt.
Dad died of a heart attack in April 1996, came on whilst cycling home from work, and walking over Oulton Broad bridge, as it turned out, he did not have the energy to cycle up the slight hill.
The paramedic said he was dead before he hit the ground.
The orderly office and duty NCO knocked at my room door; I thought it was my Granddad who had died, as I knew what their presence meant, but it was Dad. Although Granddad only last three more days.
Dad and I had boycotted home games through Christmas following the departure of Martin O'Neil, in order to get the then chairman, Robert Chase, to resign. So were denied one or two more games.
Here's my current Game Boy collection. It's at 48 unique titles with 2 spares for multiplayer (Tetris and Qix). Games shown here are US or Canadian releases with the exception of Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge (which is Australian). The cartridges obscured by the flash are Mortal Kombat 3, Dexterity, and Donkey Kong.
Wooden Ships & Iron Men. It was Bob, Dave, and Alex as the French against Scott, Rachel, and Eric as the British.
You remember the grit and sweat as your fingers touched those of your opponent. The sun beat down. You don't remember if you won; you just remember the joy of loping down the field with pure freedom, the sun beating down. You were 7 and everything was different.
(The weekly theme in the 52-week project is "time machine.")

This is one of those fortunate accidents. I shot this with my new camera - a Pentacon-Six. I had loaded the film incorrectly, resulting in overlapping frames. This is a common occurance with the Pentacon-Six; its a little bit tempermental when it comes to loading the film.
In any case, the result was this interesting triptych and a diptych that is also loaded to my Week 3 set.
I shot this on my mother-in-law's birthday. That's her in the middle. Birthdays in our family usually involve the birthday-person's choice of dinner followed by an evening of games. We're playing Ticket to Ride here, which is one of Barb's favorites. That's my father-in-law, Chuck, on the left of Barb. I cropped Shawn and his brother out. Sorry guys!
