More Found Pictures

A handful of further found pictures... and a reminder that tonight I'm reading at Lancaster Litfest at the Storey Auditorium at 9.30pm. There's a best-costume competition, Christmas trees - and a preview of 'Hell's Belles' from yours truly.

What do you think of this set of photos? George looks like he's embarked on a life as a writer and existentialist, having left Bury or Preston way behind him. He's got a duffel coat and a packet of Gitanes and a whole headful of ideas. He's had this photo taken and copies made so he can send it back to the family at home. What would they think of him? Swanking along, down by the Seine? That's his family, out for a Sunday stroll in town. His parents and his wife's parents and his wife herself. They're having a summit meeting. They've come together - even though they've never really got on - and they're going to discuss the problem of George. George who's absconded and is abroad, practising his ennui.
