Found Postcards. Fond Memories.

 As the tribulations of the COVID crisis continue, those of us stuck at home might find themselves clearing out the dark, dusty recesses of the cupboard or writing desk. 

All too often those mysterious nooks and crannies reveal long-lost treasures. Long dried-out ballpoint pens stolen during a forgotten hotel stay, boarding passes from defunct airlines or postcards from friends and family who haven't had a Christmas card since before the fall of the Berlin Wall.

For your amusement, I've found a few cards that remind me of times gone by. Perhaps even one from you.

Sent home to my daughter from Soweto. 1999.

 These cards procured from visits to museum gift shops, sent from generous pals and even from junk shops. Makes me recall my time making scores of Airfix plastic model kits in my childhood and cementing my lifelong interest in aviation. Here's the full album.
