Old and New

I delivered a barrel of beer to the Great Central Railway in Loughborough this morning. The railway is a steam heritage railway.

My good friend Richard, who is commercial director at the railway allowed me to have a mooch with my camera, so I wll post a couple of shots.

I was struck by this advert for a 1950s cigarette brand being overlooked by a CCTV camera.

Old and new music.

The great Cab Calloway singing Minnie the Moocher.

Minnie the Mooch, Players Batchelor ... remember them well, Sean, but not as being from the same period!
