40 in 27 days: 1979

We're back up to date with the photos, so today is 1979. For most of the previous years, I was spoilt for choice with the abundance of photos, but when rifling through the family albums for 1979, this was the only half decent one of me (and it isn't even half decent). We must have become bored with photography in 1979. Perhaps it was in protest at these rounded corners. Don't they look awful? I hated them at the time and I hate them now.

This was apparently taken at a pet show, with my hamster, Pebbles. I have no recollection of the event. No, that's not a crash helmet I'm wearing - it's my haircut. Paul Weller probably thinks it looks cool, even now, but I don't.
