Ah lovely - a group of kids with a dog and a baby in a pram and some sticks and what looks like a double-barrelled shotgun!!! Those objects that turn up by chance in old photographs are always fascinating and can sometimes become the story in their own right. You can make your story about sticks, stones, prams or pooches - the choice is yours. Simply post your post on or around Saturday 14th July 2018 and add a link to the list below.
