Weekly Challenge # 175. Something Nostalgic... Voting Closed

[Clicker]

Hi TIPFers..Colin has asked me to  start the theme for Challenge # 175 . His chosen theme is SOMETHING NOSTALGIC ...  Given the time of year it may be significant that we remember things from the past, so either trawl through your archives or take something new that fits the bill .. and show us your interpretation of Nostalgia.. Entries will close Friday the 9th November at midnight  when the poll will open for voting until Midnight on Friday 16th November.. Great subject theme Colin ... let’s hope for a bumper entry  folks ...

I have also gone the 40s festival route but this is a bit experimental. Took these in Holt, Norfolk last year.

Hope I'm not too late!

Nostalgic for me , as shortly after this beauty was made, I started work as a 16 year old, in Woolwich, where this was made.

This is so reminiscent of days gone by.

"Have you got a nut to fit this bolt?"

"Just a minute I'll have a look"

Then he roots about in a couple of dozen boxes before presenting you with the required nut.

"That will be tuppence please"

Not exactly Halfords but it feels like we have lost a lot.

[David995031]

I've really enjoyed looking at everyone's interpretation of this topic. What a great idea!

Are you going   to set up the poll Colin   or do you want me to do it ? I f you  set it up Colin please  do not include my entry as it was late and on reflection  I should not have posted it ... I was just so frustrated  at  finding it  sooon after  midnight  having spent ages looking ...doh

[Denis]

Yep, I'm with Denis on this one - it's not as if we were competing for £££s

[Clicker]

Thanks Guys ...appreciate that but  I would feel happier  if it wasn't included...

[colinb]

Sorry and thanks again Polly, I think I had best not enter any of the comps for a while at least until I am able to do my bit if I win any of them .
