It's already in the envelope and will go in the post tomorrow. Have a look for my photo of Homer racing across that muddy field clutching his Leicas. In those days, he and I lived around the corner from each other and would sometimes turn up at the same events. Small world.
Yes, it does show quite a lot. As someone said, Colin, it was taken when mini-skirts were at their height.
'Mini-skirted Tour Guide in St Paul's Cathedral, 1968' is in a selling exhibition at The Mill public house and restaurant, Elstead, Surrey, until 9th January, 2025. #mini-skirt #SocialHistory #StPaul'sCathedral #Fashion #DocumentaryPhotography
