Two Warships there at the same time. A red-letter day for the spotters! :)

Hey there are a lot more than two pictures on this collection. See the index below.

http://simon71.fotopic.net/c724365_1.html

Some of them are great, especially Pilning Low Level and Montpelier/Stapleton Rd station buildings.

Would be good to contact this guy and ask permission to put these excellent pics on this site?

The website is Simon Whittingham's of this ear parish! He's happy for me to use his photos, and when I get my act together (!) they'll appear on here!

Time has not been on my side of late, and I've always been crap at finding time to write emails... I'll get there in the end though. Remember how long it took me to get your pics of Hallen Oil terminal online... :wink: Bloody rubbish, me. :roll:

well technically ex-of this ear parish having moved away rather longer ago than I care to remember with only the occassional trip back "home".

Glad every one likes the pictures. These two were a happy surprise, my scanner gave up the ghost and I bought a new one which scans negatives.

Found some large square negs in the loft. I loaded these into the scanner and lo and behold... These two were taken with a Kodak Brownie (as were all my early ones on here) a christmas present in 1969 if memory serves: No focus, shutter or appeture control....just point and click and a few weeks later a rather poor set of photos back in the post! :) :)


Any time you want these or any others for the web site Pete, they are yours. - well after Andy's I'd rather see some of his on here first
