    About 27-30 years ago, I took some photos at this meeting.  I can’t remember the exact year, around 1990-1993 ish. These are a selection, although I have some more.  They may be of interest. I think that’s Harold Ridley sitting to Denis Buczynski’s right.  I think Jonathan Shanklin is in the middle of Durham2.

    Thanks for those pictures, that was the first BAA meeting that I attended, shortly after joining. I very much enjoyed it.

    I attended the meeting of 1991-09-20/22 in Durham so there’s a chance that I may be on some of the photos.  Not spotted me yet but there are a number of folks barely visible behind others.  Perhaps I am on some of the unpublished work.

    Also a nice motorbike ride from Bucks. as I remember.

    That sounds about the right year. I’d be 31. I doubt you’re on the unpublished photos – they are just a few close up of a few people I knew, though there may be one where you could be in the background. I’ll check.

    Well, my forum avatar is a mugshot of me. Unlikely to be of much use though unless you had a 4d-aware camera at the time.  😉

    Might this be you?

    I’m a frayed knot. I haven’t shaved since the summer of 1976.

    Hmm, looks like this could be me.  I have changed my appearance a lot in 30 years and I’m not sure I recognise myself any more.

    The ‘might this be you?’ head in a white box is David Graham, former BAA Saturn Section Director.

    Regards,
