Some of this work was published in Meadows' first book, ''Living Like This'' (1975), which combined Meadows' photographs and text with first-person accounts of those he had talked with. Among the photographs of this series is ''Portsmouth: John Payne, aged 12, with two friends and his pigeon, Chequer, 26 April 1974.''The title has been given in various forms; this is how it appears on the copyright page and p.32 of ''No Such Thing as Society'' (2007). Payne, holding his pigeon in the centre of the photograph, told Meadows that he caught and bred pigeons. Paul Cabuts writes that:

The photograph, like many other photographs in the exhibition 'No Such Thing as Society'' offers a window on a lost world, one that is difficult to perceive without considerable culturally-specific contextualisation. Meadows' photograph is however a masterstroke in providing clues about the life and times of those recorded through his lens. The boys became the subject, although the pigeon had been the vehicle for this particular engagement. In offering up their pigeon (the photograph was taken at their request), we enter a world of friendship and pride, the social activities on a working class housing estate. . . .
