    Good looking guys 'n gals on Gardeners' Corner. :D But why so many early shots from long ago? We want to see what you look like now. We have all got a few more lines of wisdom on our brows, a few more pounds on the scales, a few more inches on our waist line, a few more grey hairs... so what? :confused:

    Some of you have shown us photos from the 1970s so this is how I looked then :D ... and now :(

    The first photo was taken when I was with a medieval combat group.

    The second is now - hat covers balding head, beard going grey, but same frown :(

    Michaelmasdaisy, are you a whirling dervish?

    Hornbeam, you're aging well - better with the cheeks filled out a bit.

    Nice one, Wildflower; fortunately at 58 I don't have all those attributes .... yet !!! A recent pic of me on our our website. Oh, I'm the Artist, not the Builder :D :D

    Would you buy a used car from this man??? Most definately. What a lovely open honest face you have DAG!!

    Well, can't get more recent than this pic of me! It was taken last night just before I set off for my seventies night!!

    Excuse the garden, it's still in it's infancy! You may note that the turf still requires a bit of attention but I have used the suggested climbers!

    The Lady (of Leisure) doth protest, DAG ... it wasn't cakes and chocolates for me as I don't eat them [​IMG] so it must have been the nuts and crisps! :D :D

    Well, I've put an action picture into another thread - so why not something else up-to-date on this one? Here goes....
