Time for Smoko
That's a coincidence Gulliver. I just happen to have a picture of their grandmothers and great aunts I picked up in Port Moresby, PNG back in 1948.

Laughing While You Learn...
This pic was taken,(not by me) entering my local station on the preserved Severn Valley Railway.
The train was either doing a Footplate Experience Course for enthusiasts or had a trainee driver or fireman ,and some wag had fixed an 'L' Plate to the Buffer Beam.
