Yesterday, when my nephew, Robert, and his young family came over to see us, I thought I was taking straight shots for the family album; little did I know that various jokers had other ideas (I should have gone to Spec Savers again!). It was the same on Boxing day and, come to think of it, our friend David struck a funny pose the other day! Chris tells me that this strange fad is now all the rage and is called ‘photo-bombing’ – but I expect you knew that already.

I’ll add some sneaky ‘normal’ photographs I took of them just to show that my relatives are not gurning constantly!
