Meet the Street : VE Day Social Distancing Street Party

We had a Social Distancing Street Party on Friday to celebrate VE Day. Everybody sat at the end of their drive and had drinks and nibbles. I took the event as an opportunity to do some social distancing street photography and photographed every family taking part.

Front row :
Ashley, Andrew, Penny and Daisy the dog
Back Row :
Pat and Jeff (Penny's Parents and Ashley's Grandparents who live in the house opposite)
They look well set up and from the bare arms, it must have been warm!

You mean they all live in the house opposite or just the grandparents Phil.....got mixed message here I must have read it wrong! It’s a lovely photo & lovely for them to see so much of each other!

Oh well done. I wish I had successfully done the same at our similar event. I could do with some lessons as I made a complete hash of it.
