Some utter gems have just been posted on the Pex Hill Wiki (which WILL get sorted when I get round to it).
Any Pex fans will surely appreciate:

not many of the great ginger lad about!



Shame this is mono, those tights were really bright.  I made a hasty house move few years back and binned loads of great shots of Simon from the 80's.  Thing on a Spring, Reddi Brek etc...

Hope this works - I'm probably making a skoolboy error.

Those lost photos - I tipped a drawer full of prints and negs into a skip.  Gone forever!  Hope everyone is backing things up in this digital age!

Some old skool stuff featuring a younger me and a well-known member of this parish in his sandstone day, note the cutting edge footwear modelled!









Jasper always had a certain style!

Not sure if this is old skool or lantern session....from arapiles in '93





Them were the days!

That ponytail was a serious crime but the Dead Kennedys t-shirt proves I did have some taste.  :-[

Perfectly acceptable. It was 1990.

jas, didn't you mockingly name a route that summer 'ponytail pearson and the shorts of doom'.....pot meet kettle!

mind you, those red leggings don't do me any favours either! but at least i had more hair then....

does anyone know anything about negative scanners? there's a whole world of photo pain in a shoebox waiting to be explored....

Another from the Nadin archive rescued from a pile of negatives.  He loved this problem, possibly old skool 7a, under Kelly's shelf at the Roaches.

Here's me courtesy of BVT on Nadins Traverse at the Roaches:



It's fair to say we had no concept of 'conditions' back then! No wonder it all felt hard. When was that Mart - 1992? I still have the Lasers, they're aging better than me, so got them out last week for some heel hooking:



Nice, but just as painful as ever. Sorry to say the white vest has long gone!

I must say that bottom shot hurts my eyes.  Those chalky holds . . .
