Drawers and cupboards, shelves and storage places that Mum stashed all manner of paraphernalia.......pictures, letters, numerous cards and memorabilia!
Most of the pictures I have seen over my childhood and teens, sat with Mum, rummaging and ruminating through all their history. I love photographs!
As a teenager the main amusement was giggling at various fashions and hair-do's! But as both my parents were born in the 1920's they grew into adults through some of the most stylish decades! When girls dressed up and men were smart.....
The one below is in the Summer of 1948, my parents as yet unmarried went away on holiday to Newquay in Cornwall under the watchful eye of other family members. My Mum would have been almost 22 and my handsome Daddy nearly 25.....
This is my Mum (on the right) and her twinny also later in 1948 at an airshow. I am not sure who they went with but the picture is rather wonderful.....
I would like to share some of the pictures we uncover with you and so will post them a few at a time
