I'm back. First let me thank Marilyn for looking after the blog, on top of all her work on the Sepia Saturday Facebook Group, whilst I was away. When she chose this splendid image from the Tasmanian Archive and Heritage Centre, she suggested as possible theme interpretations - bobbies, bellies, bums and brushes - but one could keep the alliterative pendulum swinging by adding beards. Whatever your choice of old image - be it a b or be it not - simply post your post on or around Saturday 25th October 2014 and then add a link to the list below.
Before you accompany the constables to the Police Station to help them with their enquiries, take a look at the next couple of Sepia Saturday calls.
So there we go. It wasn't me that did it. In fact I have an alibi, officer. I was writing my Sepia Saturday 251 post at the time.

-A short and light-heerted post from me this week - but one of very happy memories.
Several tall hats for me and I may even have the same guy on the right! At least if his mustache traveled half way round the world.
A very contrived route from bobbies i.e. police to a school in Murtoa
It's a stretch but I think I've found a link to the prompt. Emblems? Does that count? :)
I have two beards but no coppers. I hope this is good enough for the theme this week! Bel
Only one policeman in my family.
A saga in 3 parts no less!
I have amended my post so you can actually find the links to Parts 2 & 3!!
I thought I had posted my contribution on Friday but realised Sunday it did not appear on the listing - so second time lucky now, I hope.
