Dear FMTTM colleagues. My Mam died on Tuesday morning and we have been sorting out the funeral for next Tuesday. However we have reached a block. I am trying to enlarge a photo for the Coffin but all the booths have been shut down. I have tried TESCO, Boots and ASDA to no avail. Doe anyone have any suggestions or locations that may be of help. TIA. Living in the Boro.

I don't live in the area Norfolk, so I cannot suggest anything. What I would try is calling a local print shop, they may do the work for you even if they are shut, officially.

My thoughts are with you and your family.

Sorry to hear that Norfolk, please accept my condolences
 
thinking back Norfolk, for my mother in laws funeral, I did the Order of Service in word and went to a plymouth print shop, and they were really helpful producing the stuff. It's not quite the same, but they usually have lots of services, so may be able to help, as I said above, under the circumstances they may even open up for you.

Best of luck
 
Have you considered using a local facebook page. They could either suggest a shop or printers that could help. Or someone with a home printer could do something.

Thanks for that Artie. After a bit of searching and phone calls I found out that only a certain number of Photo booths were open in certain ASDA stores, if it was not the one near South Bank it would have been Hartlepool or Bishop Auckland. But now me Mam sits in a 10x8 frame ready for her final journey to see my Dad who left us last June. Bizarrely she died on his Birthday.
