One of a number of old prints, approximately half the size of the photographic part of this image, which came back from Egypt with my Grandfather. It is fairly certain that he took them, apart from the odd handful he appears in. This is taken on a sports day at Abbassia Barracks in Cairo.

I knew that I had seen a large watch on a lady's wrist somewhere else. The woman to the left of the Salvation Army officer also has a large wrist watch. My grandmother had a similar watch in this photo www.ipernity.com/doc/philsutters/49989014 This photo is quite faded, so I made a copy and used the 'multiply' function in Photoshop Elements to add the layers together.
