The
photograph was taken by Mr.Tom Douch, a family friend, in whose
tiny Darkroom, together with my father, I spent many
hours learning about developing and printing, and watching Magic
Lantern shows. There was no electricity in those days, the lighting
was either by gas or parafin lamps, or in some cases a mere candle.
Many of my father's photographs were printed in the old scullery
out-house at Abbey Lodge, by candle-light.
