No - not ours - ours is April 4th...
During the summer, we received a message via our Flickr photograph gallery by a someone working on a film for the BBC Short Films Network asking whether they could use the above photograph in their production.

The photograph above is old Jenny's late grandparents, Tom & Joan Clifton. Initially I had labelled the photograph as their Golden (50th) wedding anniversary, as at my age, memories blur. All I remember was that I took the photograph in 1991. However it turned out that it was in fact their Diamond (60th) wedding anniversary. No wonder I could not remember...
The Clifton family, pre-"Uncle David"
Anyway, having checked with the family, we were delighted to be able to give permission. But there was one small problem - they needed a much better scan of the photograph (was originally taken using old Photo 1.0 technology - "FILM"...). We searched and searched in the time available while we were home in the UK for the summer, but failed to local the original - somewhere in the loft...
So unfortunately it was likely that this photograph would not be able to be included in the film. Never mind.
Anyway, the film has now been finished - see here - "50 Years and a Few Puss Kittens Wiser".
Am not sure whether the photograph is or is not included, as our internet connection out here in Thailand is a bit too slow currently - see for yourself. What we could see of the film we enjoyed - well done Anastasia
