Hi all - I have a birthday in a few days time so with that in mind the theme for this month's competition is: Old

Interpret as you wish - good luck!

The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
Entries and discussion on a single thread, please.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Winners should update the Competition Wiki (it's easy)
Photos entered can be as large as you like, although bear in mind if too large, it may not be possible to see the whole image on some screens. Links to larger versions are permissible.
If after 7 days of a competition ending, either a winner has not been declared, or the winner has not created a new thread, a new thread should be started, with the topic set as whatever the topic was 10 years ago, based on this wiki.

When I thought of "old", I thought of this photo:

The chap who built that ladder carved his initials into it, along with the year - 1694.

I'm sure I know that guy, unless the photographer knows him?

Nope. It was just a candid photo on the day. Unless he's an ex-racer?
