Virginia and Mike Howard's photostream  

We are both in our early sixties and are car dealers living in Birmingham,UK.We met in 1977 while on holiday in Malta and so the island remains very special to us.We visit whenever we have time and have spent four holidays there.We have two children Simon and Lucy,who can be seen in many of our photos.We love all animals,especially cats and we have five at the moment.We used to show and breed chinchilla persians years ago but we gave it up because we did not like having to sell our kittens.A lady once said to us that it must be like selling your kids and that is as near as anyone has come to describing how it feels when they go.We also love going to Kenya,we first visited 22 years ago and have been back six times since.We usually do a safari and then go to the coast at Mombasa.We have visited all of the major national parks and reserves and anyone looking at our photostream will soon work out our favourite.We also like to visit Torquay in Devon(UK) whenever we can as we spent our honeymoon there.It is very handy for us as it is only a 2 hour plus drive on the M5 motorway.We take most of our photos and videos on holidays with the exception of shots of our cats or flowers in the garden.Most of our older photos were scanned from 35mm prints,then we went on to taking video and very recently have gone digital which we particularly like because if you don't like the result you just delete it and go again.
