... I'm scanning (on the fantabulous new scanner Mr Brown brought home this afternoon) all my mum's old photos. Then I'm going to burn them all onto discs so my siblings and I all have a copy (with any luck this should stop any undignified squabbling over who gets the photos on mama's deathbed).
Here are a just few I've already managed to get into digital format.
My Pa (in the middle) as a very, very young sailor.
My mum, 1957, in Hyde Park, posing for a Telegraph photographer (I think it wasn't such a ghastly piece of gutter tabloid-ism back then).
Mum, Dad & Me (middle boat), 1969ish? (don't know where, or who the others are, must ask Mum).

That's cool. I did the same thing with my family's old photos when I first got a scanner.
It was fun.
These are treasures!
MG - it may well take me the rest of my natural life to finish though!
Lee - they are indeed, I grumble but I'm really having fun :)
Love these pics !
I want those chairs the sailors are sitting on ( how shallow of me )
They'd be cane chairs, my parents did have some, years and years ago. We children picked them to bits, slowly over the years.
Love these!!
