Couldn't resist

Not one to often leaf through old photo albums, here are two I couldn’t resist, and I thought I’d share them with you today.

These are two photographs of my Dad as a child. I don’t know all that much about them other than they are taken on the farm whilst he was on holiday.

What a tiny pony! Your dad looks like he's mastered riding since he was a toddler.

your father's posture reminds me sooo of one of my literature professors!

The boy on the pony looks so logical and intelligent, too; while the pony, his hair and his large mind is so antithetical to all that society implies... its like a wilderbeast the boy will ride and ride, through the clean swept streets of London, and marry the two sides of nature and mind. I love this image.

He hasn't changed a bit..... It's always fascinating how you can still see the child that once was in a persons face, no matter how many years have passed.

Glad you all enjoyed seeing some cute photos of my dad. I think he was a little shy about me showing them... I asked him what the pony was called but he couldn't remember. I'll let you know if he finds out. xo lj
