There was an old woman
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
There was also a time when I knew where every transparency of mine was taken. Not bad considering there are many thousands of them and some show little more than a row of trees or a single fellside. As I scan them into the computer I begin to realise those days are past. Where, for example, is this strange dwelling place? I know it was Devon or Cornwall but the exact location escapes me. Perhaps Magdalen or Helen have spotted it in their travels down there and can tell me?
