A face brimming with character
« on: Saturday 24 January 09 11:26 GMT (UK) »
Another submission for my friend please

This is his gran . What a lovely face. Full of character I feel.

Bad condition I'm afraid. Hoping it can be cleaned and coloured .

Thank you very much

Genie :)

Wouldn't we love to be able to talk to just a fraction of some of the characters who come through here! Oh the stories I think they could tell!

I know what you mean Victoria. I have a long list of questions I need the answer to.

For example - Where were you on the night of the census?

plus many more
