12:00:00 I don't think I actually took this photo myself, I have a feeling it was already on the camera, presumably having been used to demonstrate to another customer. | 12:00:00 So this is likely the first photo I ever took with my own digital camera, in Vera's flat in Monmouth, a photo of a photo of me when I was a boy. Note I hadn't yet set the clock on my camera so all these pictures appear to have been taken at midday. | 12:00:00 Vera's pendulum clock and some plates on the wall. | 12:00:00 The large bauble which used to hang in Vera's window. I think i was a fairly recent present from Robin. |
12:00:00 Some of my Star Wars Lego. | 12:00:00 A painting of flowers on Vera's wall. | 12:00:00 The waste paper basket. | 12:00:00 Some flowers. |
12:00:00 The Widecombe Fair picture. | 12:00:00 HP Sauce. 67p! | 12:00:00 A little jug. | 12:00:00 Another photo of a photo, from the summer camp I went on with Tim. |
12:00:00 My first ever digital selfie! | 12:00:00 Vera's lounge. | 12:00:00 More bits of Vera's lounge. | 16:32:00 Vera in the lounge, near the front door. Looks like I had finally set the clock by this point, although I'm not sure the times are actually correct, I imagine it would have been much earlier in the day. |
16:58:40 My things packed and ready to move into my new place in Reading. | 16:58:48 | 17:01:41 Looks like some toast? A funny time of day to be eating toast! | 17:14:57 Vera with a cloth on her head! |
17:18:32 I wonder who took this? Dad maybe? Or possibly Vera? | 17:25:32 Dad's car ready to take me and my things to Reading. | 17:37:40 Dad looking mischievous. | 17:39:11 The telly. |
17:44:56 Dad at Vera's front door. | 17:45:24 Vera by the front door. | 18:01:09 In Dad's car, presumably heading down the Wye Valley Road. | 18:02:49 Tintern Abbey as we whizzed past. |
18:16:30 On the M4 I assume? | 18:18:22 | 18:23:49 Inside Dad's car. | 18:57:36 This is apparently The Bakers Arms in Badbury, where I think we may have stopped off for something to eat. Again not sure if the times are accurate here, I suspect this was actually more like lunch time. |
19:05:01 Inside the pub, the pub dog came to say hello. | 19:57:02 Back on the M4. | 20:34:17 Dad giving me a hand with my things in my new room. | 21:06:56 Times got out of order here, this should actually have been before the previous picture. Anywho, that's junction 11 on the M4. |
21:36:46 My room after my things had been unpacked. I'm writing this in February 2018, not far off two decades later, and I still have that weather house and the same duvet cover. | 00:12:10 I don't think I still have any of those other things though! | 07:20:55 |
