Flickr Fun

I had a lot of fun looking at the photos on Flickr. After losing an hour, indulging my feelings of nostalgia by finding photos of my childhood haunts in East London, I dragged myself away to post this blog. This is clearly a wonderful resource for finding that elusive image. I found a photo of a house in the street that I lived in as a kid: Lavender Grove, Hackney, East London as well as one of the Broadway market where I used to stand horrified, but unable to move, when live eels were cut up for those with a taste for jellied eels and the like. And yes, it often looked this dreary!


I'll definitely return to this site to upload a photo or two.
One True Media is the Flickr third party site that I found most useful. My son will be 21 before I know it and if I start now, I could create a montage set to music that could be used to embarrass and entertain the guests at his birthday bash.
That's all for now,

Second time lucky

This is actually my second go at posting on a blog. I'm learning how to publish my posts by trial and error, mainly the latter!

Of the 7.5 habits, I'm already mastering no.3, viewing problems as challenges, but it's no 7.5, play, that most appeals to me as it suggests that it's okay to take risks and not to feel bad about making blunders. I'm looking forward to learning as I go with the 23 things and hope to look back and feel exhilarated by the journey.

Bye for now,
