BITS OF MY LIFE - PART V

28 JUNE 2010

More odds and ends, mostly friends and family. Some taken at the legendary fancy dress party that Liz and I held. Some of my boat, a bloody great money-pit but great fun in the summer.


There are a couple taken at Margie and Bill’s wedding and some of skiing trips to the US and France.

The Inn at Soap Lake. I arrived on the day they closed for the winter, but they opened a room just for me. American Hospitality at its best.

I’ve been told that I look like an out of work hit-man in this.
