    I've been meaning to post this here for quite a while...





    I took this photo after the Natural History show at the Hammersmith Odeon, London on Sunday the 25th of May, 1986...

    This was the very first time I saw Laurie - and for whatever reason I thought I'd chance my arm and take along my camera! I'd used up all of my film during the show - venues didn't seem to object to you taking photos back then - and so I had nothing left when the show ended. Of course there was NO WAY I would ever be able to meet Laurie... But, as you can see, I did - and so I advanced the mechanism on the camera which enabled me to take this pic. It's a 'double-exposure' with the four chairs at the front of the stage 'behind' Laurie - all things considered, I'm absolutely amazed that it came out... Very Happy

    Rob

    Rob that is a wonderful picture.

    The stage left to Laurie makes the picture. Very well done, and thanks for sharing

    It's a gem, Rob. Good bit of history there! Laurie looks like she has an after-show glow.
