Well, at the time of writing (2011) I'm 65 and living in Lincolnshire, UK. I have lived in Clapham, Brixton, Upper Norwood and parts of Kent. I have enjoyed a life of cars, motorcycles, going through the 60's (and that was fabulous) and collecting anything and everything. I'm gradually going to put some fun pics onto this site.I really can't wait to get ALL my photos onto historypin before they realise I'm filling their server up!
