My father's 100th Birthday

Today is 18 February 2016, my father's 100th birthday.

"Happy Birthday," Diddy, wherever you are!



Probably taken at Wollaton at the house where he was born - (in his own words) "shortly after a Zeppelin attack on the Ordnance Factory at Chilwell, nearby."

L-R Richard H. Beaumont, Archdeacon Egbert Hacking, Tom Beaumont, Winifred Hacking, Margaret Hacking, Richard M. Beaumont, Edith Beaumont
A family group from about 1920, with parents, Uncle Richard, grandparents, and Aunt Win.



Probably taken in Eritrea in early 1941


Mowing the lawn in 1957 or 1958 (not wanting to lose a moment's time - whilst waiting for Mum to get ready, before going to Glyndebourne?)


Cooking sausages in the wood at Pulborough with William and me in the early 1960s.
