WW1 Centenary
Photo: Brian (Sony Cybershot DSC-H200)
Nice photo, is the bike a Veluocette, or am I thinking about another type, also the spelling is probably wrong.
Looks more like an early Triumph.
Nicely composed picture.
vehicles had class in those days.
Perfect combo
With that tank design and badge it must be a Triumph.Tick and a star Anne!!!
1921 Triumph 500cc
Looks like a type A Triumph motorcycle around 1914.
And also, looks like Austin Westminster, 1930s maybe.
Well done Brian.
A nice Austin Berkeley, 1933 with a 1.9 litre petrol engine.
Good picture brian and the park looks good too.
Lack of comment shows who cares? Just an observation . Sadly, those wonderful days are gone..
Don`t think it`s a case of "nobody cares"Fred., We all have our own interests but I do agree with you that the" wonderful" days have gone but we still keep memories of those days whatever they were.
Absolutely Jean.
Lack of interest, rubbish fred. So far there's 1,195 views. Only Colin has got the bike and car right...most people don't know what they are. Those days have NOT gone.
Wonderful days? Hardly anyone could afford a car. Where i lived we had one toilet between 5 families. The house was infested with cockroaches. Despite everything mother did to try and keep it clean, it was impossible as it was a slum that should have been demolished a hundred years earlier.That situation was the same for thousands in Wigan. Please...throw away your rose coloured spectacles.
Sorry Garry, I said comment, not views. Linda, I hear what you say but those bad times was what brought people together. We had nowt but my also neighbour had nowt. It taught me values and to respect what I have now. Sorry, gone off the picture.
Fred's not with it.
Explain please Garry.
Gone off the picture...you said..why it's full of history.
