On the first day back at school at Clee Grammar, Cleethorpes, the Head, Mr Shaw, started by saying a new year and new decade . It was Colin Shaw and it said C. Shaw on his office door. Appropriate for a seaside town! This got me thinking, At the age of 14. a decade had been a lifetime. The next decade would be another life time. In 10 years, I would have done my O and A levels, gone to college and may be even married! 10 years! I could not comprehend it. As it happened, each decade of my life did change dramatically. 50's school. 60's Grammar school and college. 70's Family, allotment and weightlifting. 80's O.U. and climbing UK. 90's climbing Europe. 2000's Retirement. 2010's mountaineering worldwide and then 2020's Covid! I started taking photos when I cycled over the Alps in 1964. Since then, I have amassed 7000 slides. 40 years later photography went digital and now I have another 10,000 or so. Therefore this little book is a photographic record of the changing decades of my life.
