"With Love From Me To You"
 
Our first pictures for this year come from Brigitte Vereijken:

"Hi, we are Brigitte Vereijken and Diede Scheerder from Valkenswaard, the Netherlands. We did the Abbey Road Crossing on 29 December 2011............................

"Good evening! Me and my friends enjoyed crossing Abbey Road on the 2nd January 2012. We were very enthusiastic and for us it was a very exciting experience that really tied us even more together. I would be deeply grateful to discover my photo on your website. Thanx in advance, Felix from Austria"
 
Dolf Schinkel writes: "Thank you for the information on your site, it helped me finding the Abbey Road studio and crossing. This picture was taken on 3 Jan 2012. It was special for me to be on the same location where the album cover pictures were taken for Red Hot Chili Peppers and the band Paul McCartney played in before he formed Wings......Kind Regards, Dolf (Bass player with Keytone Cops, Netherlands)"

This is Bob Caskey from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA, 'Crossing Over' on Sunday 22/1/2012 at 12:27 PM.
 
Rachel Elisabeth Ramaswamy and her family managed to have their picture taken at the Abbey Road road sign before it was permanantly removed by the local council a few years ago because it kept 'disappearing'. She writes:

"This is my mom, brother, and me crossing Abbey Road in April of 2005. One of the highlights of my young life as I have always loved The Beatles......................

 
......................and this is my brother and me next to that famous sign."
