Description

I found this picture amongst some of my Grandfather's things..On the back in barely legible writing, it said, My Dear Tom, I hope this finds you and yours in good health.We are really enjoying the walking tour of Romania, Hagrid and I. Beautiful countryside and the people are very kind and hospitable. Running out of space, will write again from Transylvania. With fond regards, your friend, Albus Dumbledore PS. Thought you would enjoy this photograph, Hagrid said that it is a Hungarian Horntail , and he would know, remember how he always loved dragons. Albie I hope you enjoy my little bit of fun:-) Thanks for any comment you care to make:-)

Hehehehe! This is fun! I like it a lot! The idea is brilliant and so is the 'old' photograph! Looks like they hadn't developed the right magic for moving photos then. I only hope, Tom does not mean your Grandfather is he who must not be named... ;-) Thank you for this image!

Just to set the record straight:-) My granddad was Tom Wright not Riddle, so I am not a relation to Vol.... 'He Who Must Not Be Named' LOL Thanks everyone for taking part in my bit of fun, I'm glad that you enjoyed it!! Hugs Sylki

Great idea and wonderfully executed. Reminds me of those 'fairies at the bottom of the garden' fake photos that fooled so many Victorians. (Not that I'm suggesting your granddad was, in any way, a liar.)
