I gotta get outta this place

if it's the last thing I ever do ......

This is a branch of our tree hanging over the wall on the neighbour's side, and pretty high up. It was very challenging to get any shots as the wind kept blowing those little branches or leaves in the way.

He is making a run for it.

Interesting title too. I have recently been helping Roy a friend of mine here in Australia trace his family history. He moved to Australia when he was in his 20s.

His cousin is Alan Price from The Animals they spent a lot of their childhood together and they both attended the same Jarrow Grammar School.
