These two photographs produced by Jessica on Christmas Day 1974
in our Islington garden contain a bunch of roses picked then by me.
This evening we all dined on Britannia Thai’s excellent takeaway fare. No-one imbibed.
Advent Day 24
Ramblings
You have had the gardening knack and a good head of hair for quite some time, Derrick!
Thank you so much, Val
🙂
Love the photo, Derrick. Which hair band were you in? Did you song, play an instrument or both?
Neither, sadly. Thanks very much, Pat
Looks like 1974, all right!
Thanks very much, Liz
You look great, Derrick! Merry Christmas. 😊
The 70s have a lot to answer for as far as haircuts go. Happy Christmas.
That picture is oh so groovy! A very merry Christmas to you and yours.
Thank you very much, Laurie
You, too, Tootlepedal. Thanks very much
That is a wonderful head of hair you have there, Derrick. Those are very nice photos Jessica took of you. The roses are perfect, too! Yes, I remember the 70s and the styles.
Thank you very much, Lavinia
Amazing! Those were the days! Merry Christmas to you both, Derrick.
And to you, Mike. Thank you very much
Ah, yes. The seventies. Those are wonderful photos from the past; I hope your celebrations of Christmas present are as pleasing!
Thank you very much, Linda
A great picture of the eternal gardener. The look reminds me of disco, but in your case, it would be garden disco. 😉
Thank you so much, JoAnna
I remember hair and beards like that – ahh, the sweet yesterdays we took for granted.
Thank you so much, John
Ah! Yay! The ’70’s! What a great decade! 🙂
Happy Christmas to everyone at your home! 🙂

You must have spent a lot of money on hair care products.
Happy Christmas to you both.
Thanks very much, Andrew. Not a penny, except for shampoo. Same to you both
What a fabulous barnet Derrick!
Thank you very much, Sheree
The 1970s for sure! Great photos, Derrick. We are being treated to your past with you as you go through your photos.
Thank you very much, Merril
Merry Christmas to you and yours
Thanks very much, Luisa. You, too
