Thursday doors – 19 September
Doors 83 – Door pairs from Hotwells, Bristol
Very short of time this week, but I haven’t posted doors for a while, so here are some pairs of doors from Hotwells in Bristol. These doors are garden back doors and rather ordinary, but something about them being in pairs begins to tell us a little bit about the occupants present and past. How much do they maintain their doors, how often might they use them, do they have pets? Interestingly, none of the neighbours appear to have teamed up and gone for a joined-up approach. Enjoy.
The last one pair works for me because they are the colours of Arsenal, my football club, and incidentally also the colours of the Bristol City football club.
There we are, that’s all folks. Enjoy what’s left of the week and have a lovely weekend.
Please go take a look at the Norm 2.0 blog – the originator of Thursday Doors where there are links to yet more doors in the comments section at the end.
