Circa 1955-6 (I think); my sister is in the red dress. I would be 2 or 3. Not sure who took these, I think a friend of the family.

May 1963, aged 10, again with my sister who would be 12 then. I think the photographer was a tenant who lived above my mother's shop at that time and kept several pets in our greenhouse, including a monkey.

and July 1973. Just me aged 20... already beardy! Not a very good photo, unfortunately, due to my mum being crap with any camera more complicated than a box brownie.

I'm probably not going to copy every picture, a lot of them are naff and it takes a fair while. But these are by far the oldest so I wanted to get them done right away. What I may do is send some off to a copy service, looks to cost around £8 to get a hundred slides scanned, copied onto DVD, and returned.
