THE

PHOTO INDEX

Welcome to photo section, quite possibly the only thing on this site of marginal interest.

Each link leads to a photo, which will pop up in a new window, thus easing the strain on your browser's "back" button.

This page gets updated now and then, on the occasions when I realise it's hopelessly out of date AND can be bothered to scan in a whole load of new photos, upload them, update the HTML code for the index page... and so on. So if this page is curently out of date, it's because I'm lazy. Or busy. But most likely lazy.
