A Yorkshire Connection

I've just had the owner of  the online newspaper 'Spotted In Ely' around  to take a series of photographs for a feature on Ted Coney's Family Portraits.
While in the studio, I explained about the visits I'd made to five Yorkshire sea-side towns last summer, to do research for my latest painting 'Forget-Me-Nots'.
He noticed the names of the towns on the brown luggage labels which are attached to each suitcase in which I had collected the objects.
His eyes lit up, as he too remembered all the places he had visited in his boyhood.
Infact it turned that we had lived near to each other as children, though not at the same time.
