title Nosher's 18th Birthday, Barton on Sea, Hampshire - 26th May 1985 intro It's the final year of college, and Nosher gets a Pentax K1000 for his birthday, making these the first photos - aside from the odd holiday roll on a Boots Instamatic in the early 80s and a few black and white rolls on a borrowed camera from Brockenhurst College - in a continuing sequence spanning at least 225,000 photos (in 2020). The day started somewhat gloomily, with early thunderstorms, but brightened up just in time for the arrival of the gang to Ford Cottage, Meadow Way in Barton on Sea. scan-120103-0001 Anna and Phil scan-120103-0005 Anna Green scan-120103-0006 Anna and Florence the cat scan-120103-0007 Liz with her eyes closed scan-120103-0029 Sis, Jon "The Hair", Sean and Liz scan-120103-0030 Sis, Jon, Sean and Liz again scan-120103-0028 Caroline with Florence scan-120103-0003 Martin Fairhurst fluffs a croquet shot scan-120103-0002 People mill around playing croquet scan-120103-0004 Andy climbs a stepladder to referee a controversial shot scan-120103-0009 Andy clears some grass for Neil's shot scan-120103-0011 Andy Campbell plays croquet scan-120103-0022 Andy picks a croquet ball out of the pond scan-120103-0019 Andy and Sis are head-to-head on the croquet scan-120103-0017 Andy considers a home-made barbeque shelter scan-120103-0016 Sean, Clare, Andy and Martin scan-120103-0020 Grandmother pokes around scan-120103-0032 Ando pokes some barbeque food scan-120103-0012 Mother with a ciggie on scan-120103-0013 Sis plays with Florence scan-120103-0021 Garden milling around scan-120103-0014 Birthday lunch occurs scan-120103-0015 Florence roams around looking for scraps scan-120103-0034 Florence gets a scrap scan-120103-0033 Nosher on the bench scan-120103-0018 Nosher pops some fizz scan-120103-0027 Caroline, Sis, Neil and Andy drink some champagne scan-120103-0031 Clare Campbell and Martin Fairhurst scan-120103-0025 Mother, Grandmother, Caroline, Sis, Neil and Andy scan-120103-0026 Nosher in the family group photo scan-120103-0023 A group photo scan-120103-0024 Nosher joins the group photo scan-120103-0035 Biddles the Moog gets a scratch scan-120103-0036 Grouped in the lounge scan-120103-0037 Mother, Sis, Clare, Andy, Liz and Phil
