Not that impressive, there's not loads of people waiting for a train that's not been cancelled or running late. Also, surely there would be some days every week when the game doesn't run because of strikes?

The top knot is an alpine butterfly knot, is it not?

You also get to drive replacement bus services sometimes!

Is it a not, is it knot?

One of the tasks I've set myself is to collate a stack of family photos going back four generations broadly into albums of each individual. With the number of photos I have, could take a while - !

No, the loops of cord aren’t right for that to be an alpine butterfly. The only common bit is the loop up top.

Welcome to my world. Well, I deal with motor racing photos not family ones, but still...

My said family photos are a legacy of my late mum. She was a very good 'safe keeper' of such family things. I had to coordinate with my older sister to identify some of the folk in the older photos. The variation of sizes was interesting; some about A4 down to literally negative size.

The tiddly ones were likely cut down from sheets of contact prints. They were pretty de rigeur in the 1970s.
