Living in an overcrowded shithole is not wholesome for anybody. Refer to those chickens in KFC poultry farms.

Pack more in, make them grow quickly, then slaughter them for maximum ROI.

Colour film was readily available in 1968 to those who could afford it. However it cost almost 10x more to develop and print so B/W film outsold colour by a huge margin.

I have never seen any colour photographs until late 70s. Maybe sg didn't have and no market for it.

Was it true that if you used a film camera to take photos of your private parts, you could get arrested if you brought them to a shop to be developed?

You were obviously very low SES at the time I was shooting colour in 1967. Prints were developed and printed at Kodaks central lab in Alexander Road. Colour slides had to be sent to Australia for processing.

If the above is true, you must be about 75 years old now.

This was the causeway in the good old days. No stress, no road rage, no queue.
