Night time reading is an old copy of this. I've read it before, many years ago, but it isn't ringing bells so feels like (almost) new.

The whole thing. It's a scene of Kendal funfair after the River Lune flooded one time early last century. The chap at the steps of the Showman's living wagon might be my great, great (poss, another great) uncle Alf Hoadley, but there's no one left alive to ask.

Mam died last week and today has been finalising funeral arrangements. Brother and sister working through 100's of mother pics for display at the tea while I'm nodding along, transfixed by the faces of nameless ghosts from 100+ years ago.
