Posing on the gate in Tooting Bec

Beni, Lucas and myself posing on the brink pillars of the front gate of my home on 11, Morven Rd. in Tooting Bec, London. Lucas invented the pose and several people were asked to take it and have a photo taken. These three are the only ones left of those happy and innocent days in 1984. Please note that the iron gate itself was supposed to be closed (not to immagine if one had fallen down on it!) and the bird over the entrance was to be held in one hand!
These were also the years when cars were very impontant . Here some links about the cars featured:
== VW SCIROCCO! == http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Scirocco#Scirocco_II_.281982.E2.80.931992.29

  • Lucas posing on the gate. He was the inventor of this pose, a fantastic friend of mine who sadly has already passed away. On the left my blue Ford Cortina 1.6L, curtesy of my company. I thad four doors and was not exciting at all. It felt like driving in the grandmother's bath tub.

No car in this picture but a word on my own white (with hint of green!!) SAAB 99 turbo, a true rocket at the time. Indeed it was broken into in front of this gate and the car stereo (also something speical at the time) was stolen. I then installed a burglar alarm that sometimes went off during the night waking up all the neighbours! I was very popular at the time in that neigbourhood.
