When David and Joe were small,we often visited the beautiful Lleyn Peninsula. They loved the Dwyfor Rabbit Farm, near Porthmadog (which is also close to the wonderful Portmeirion Village) and that is where I took (as I do) lots of photos. This is one of them. Not long after, my husband's mum, Jane, sadly died and of course we then found lots of old family photos, including the small black and white one here which is of their dad, John. We could not believe how identical Joe was to his dad, seemingly at around the same age, even the hair style is the same! As you know, children can take on a look of a parent to different degrees at different times as they grow, so maybe a year later the likeness might not have been so strong. I absolutely promise that Joe's was not a contrived, staged photo, so to me, this is quite amazing!
Anyway, I think it would be fun to see if others have similar sets of authentic photos they would like to share, so why not send then to me via Twitter or email and see what we can come up with? It will be a laugh and a good excuse to have a sentimental stroll down your own memory lane. See you there!
