The one with his eyes open is so dark you can hardly see him. I did take some good ones later - honestly.

Dont beat yourself up too much Ann, with some flash and/or some post processing it would have been fine.
I think you are also trying things that you didn't before, which has raised the bar for you!
Me? I'm just scared to go out now in case I fail! ;-)
Peter - it is post processed! Its just a bad shot.
Aaaarh!
Well just as well there's tomorrow! :-)

It comes back to that hoary old chestnut: nature or nurture. Some people are born sour and mean-spirited and spend a life-time begrudging others. When you get to your 80s it shows ...
