Et Al Pics: Take Me Back to Galle Face

Life's a beach for Philip Brown

Sometimes it’s quite therapeutic for me to look back at photographs that I took years ago. I don’t do it that often but when I’m under instructions from the Cricket Et Al boss to get on with my next contribution I panic and tend to straight away look through old snaps. It’s often a shock to realise how long ago they were taken. The clock is always ticking and one can be reminded of time’s relentless march on every occasion you put on or remove a sock. (Although I find sometimes it is so much easier removing them if you use a stand on the toeiest (sic) bit of the sock, with the other foot of course)
