    Some fantastic photographs in there, fascinating stuff! I wonder will people be looking at the photographs of today in 60 years time thinking the same? Shows just how important it is to take pictures of everyday life, work rest and play.

    What a fabulous collection of pics! It just goes to show that what may seem mundane at the time, will be damned interesting years later.
