If you mean having a grand total of 5/6 photos that have been randomly taken over the last 20 years then Yes!...portraits sadly none but you have given me a great idea, I could have a life size model made like Kim Il Sung...:)

My great-granddad apparently had a life-size photograph made of him that he put up on the inside of the door as a kind of warning to his kids every time they left the house. He ordered it off a door-to-door photographer, something you don't see much of now for some reason. Mind you, he does sound like a character (read, tyrant) from what I've been told. He worked as a drayman in Wandsworth, delivering barrels of beer to pubs with a horse and cart, and more often that not, stopping to sample the goods at every stop he made. Handily for him, he was eventually fired and thus free to spend all of his afternoons in the pub without pesky work getting in the way.

    • Ohh dear.  Fireworks can be great fun.  Where I used to live the kids would have firework wars/games.  Watching them was more enjoyable than watching  TV. (Which you could hardly hear due to the pops and bangs).  It's not like anyone/anything could stop them. I would still prefer organised public displays that are affordable.   And I agree that fireworks cause problems for wild life, pets and people.   It seems to be one of those things that just happens so we have to put up with it.  But it is still not as problematic here as in other areas in London - that's for sure.
    • I made sure to set off a few today just to rile you guys up 😇😂 Always looking for something to criticise 
    • Ugly...maybe..does it bother me..NO! I think its somehow reassuring to see theres still phoneboxes around. East Dulwich may  be getrified but there may well be some elderly people who don't have mobiles and kids who may have lost theirs adults ditto etc etc. I'd rather keep it than lose it...just because i don't use it does'nt mean its not needed.  there are many eyesores in the modern world not all of them as potentially useful.
    • I strongly recommend Balayage salon in Lordship lane as everytime I visit,they make me feel very spicial with thier profisionalism and care.   I have been going there for the last 10 years maybe more, and will never exchange them for any other. They are profisional, welcoming and they also always have an offer. I feel like a new woman every time. X
