EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Geoff Garrett, we see 21-year-old barmaid Sarah Pilcher proudly holding up a steak and kidney pie in a traditional fish and chip shop. This seemingly ordinary moment holds an extraordinary story behind it. Back on the fateful day of December 19th, 1997, Sarah's life took an unexpected turn when she slipped on a wet pavement. As luck would have it, the very pie she now showcases played a crucial role in saving her from harm. In a bizarre twist of fate, the pie landed perfectly underneath her head, cushioning her fall and preventing any serious injuries. This snapshot not only captures Sarah's gratitude for that fortuitous pastry but also serves as a reminder of how unpredictable life can be. It reminds us to appreciate even the smallest moments and objects that unexpectedly come to our aid. Transporting us back to the vibrant era of the 1990s, this image exudes nostalgia with its depiction of a classic chippy or chip shop—a beloved staple in British culture. The aroma of freshly fried fish permeates through the air while trays filled with golden chips tempt passersby. Geoff Garrett skillfully immortalizes this unusual yet heartwarming incident through his lens—showcasing both everyday occurrences and extraordinary tales that make up our collective memory lane.
