This is a lovely capture of my Mum (back LHS) with her Mum my Nan (back RHS). Thats me with the bucket and my sister Barbara beside me. Lovely to see I was once shorter than my sister!! I shot up to 5'9" at the age of 11 and was the tallest girl in my school when I was in the 1st year. It's funny as girls seem to be much taller these days - must be what they feed them on!! LOL!!
It looks like we are on a day out at the seaside - our Nan always came with us. She always wore a hat. I loved that dress - red seersucker.
Not very good quality I'm afraid - my Dad was not the best photographer - it's a wonder he hasn't chopped our heads off in this shot!!
Such a sweet photo, Pam. I love old family photos the best. I was the tallest student in my whole class for a couple of years. I was so thankful when a tall boy transferred to my school, so I wasn’t the tallest anymore. I later became grateful for my height.
@aikiuser I was always so self conscious as a teenager. Boys especially grow slower than girls and were always far too short for me!! I could size up a boy walking towards me at a dance and know his nose would only come up to my armpit!! It was always useful for little old ladies who would ask me to get things from the top shelf in the supermarket telling me how wonderful to be so tall!!
