A Nod To Brent - a friendly thread, filled with frivolity, cream teas and pasties. Longing for the happy days in the South Hams 1947.

Was the loco also colloquially known as "Teddy Hall"?

I knew someone who went to St Edmund Hall, Oxford, and referred to it as 'Ted Hall'.

[gwrrob]

Excellent pics: the black Hall looks so much better in Sepia , but it does seem much more shiny, I'm wondering why?

Also available in b&w and colour.

 

 

[gwrrob]

A few more.

I am fond of black and white shots but I think your sepia versions are even better........what software do you use? I use photoshop elements but ave failed to find a sepia button

The sepia is not the only thing that has been photoshopped....

Nothing fancy or clever John, its me after all.

 

I use Irfanview first to resize and sharpen them.On my tablet I have a photo editor which crops them and adds any effects.To make the sepia I convert it to greyscale, then I use the temperature button to make the maximum shade of sepia.

That's odd, I thought he was 3-D printed.

If he's anything like me if would use his loaf and exchange it for some saffron cake instead.
