Thank you Anne for yesterday. I'm going to carry on with your theme as well as Lynnes.
 
Finally Lynnes quote

Edward "Ted" Grant was a South African Trotskyist who spent most of his adult life in Britain. He was a founding member of the Militant tendency and later Socialist Appeal.

 I'm not sure I like this portrait in either colour or black and white
I know I am weary and it shows. 
 

I chose this photo of outside as I found a photo in a book about the history of our area.
I took it from a similar place as the previous one
The large building is the old police station - now a pub

    1. Thank you Joy. I am glad I didn't look so bad I'm not sure about being photogenic though. I hate having my photo taken
