Launch

My mother called this morning asking me to dig out some old photographs for someone, so it seemed appropriate to use a few of them for blip purposes as my table is covered in these wonderful old pictures. These are old press photographs from 1956 of a cross Channel boat race from Folkestone, England to Boulogne, France. My grandparents took part and won first in their class. I have their trophy and their certificate of crossing as well as this collection of photographs. I loved this one on the left in particular for the man with his cigarette! Not to mention the clothing.

Hope the launch of the updated blipfoto goes successfully and it's a smooth crossing for us all. x
