- Bit more on Lloyd.
- Thought I’d share this because it’s such a fantastic photo. Will explain more below. But basically it’s from an album found in a chazza. Look at these fellas.
- The album is mostly family photos, all inter-war period, then a few from the war years. A few are annotated which means I might be able to work out who they belonged to. I hate puzzles, except this sort, which I love. Here’s the whole photo, first was just a crop.
- The album is mostly taken around Norwich. In the second pic you can see they’re posed between two Nissen Huts. They’re Airmen on one of the local USAAF bases. There were loads of 8th AF around here. If I were to guess, I’d say this is Station 123, or RAF Horsham St Faith, now Norwich Airport.

- Here we go. Here’s our Lloyd.
- Well that’s a good start. Lloyd survived and returned to Pennsylvania, and made it to 83. It also states he served in the US Army.
- Distinct smell of nonce in the Norfolk gulag tonight.
- Yet again it all proves, those who seek power are rarely fit to rule.

- Reposted by Nick StoneI'm sorry if I already told you this, but I had a drama tutor who drove a Beetle just like this. Hole in the roof was patched with cement. He'd had a stroke affecting his right side so when driving, if he wanted to stop he'd lift his right leg off the accelerator onto the brake.
- Happy place*
- More of that.
- Sovereign.
- Perhaps they should use this as a good moment to strip Mone, Dannat and Evans of their peerages too. Or I dunno, just have a democratically elected second house instead.

- Solid argument here for just taking the techbros responsible for this outside and smacking them in the spuds with a shovel.
- This is who runs this account.
- For some bizarre reason my mum used to cut round all my school photos. That’s the first one, I’d be about five I reckon. All of them are like that.
