New Year's Eve at Phil's, Hordle, Hampshire - 31st December 1990

It's New Year's Eve around Phil's parents' house in Hordle. Nosher had arrived a bit late after the camera had been left on a train when changing at Southampton whilst on the way down from East Anglia - it was remembered just after the doors locked as the train was pulling out. Some guards, who were having a tea-break, phoned ahead and the camera bag - which had been left under a seat - was sent back on a returning train about an hour later. These days it would have probably been blown up first, and sent back in pieces six weeks later after forensic examination.
