Back in the day... by sarah19

Back in the day...

With my sister Chris and brother Malcolm, 1961 when I was five, but not yet at school.
I've been trying to do a bit of a sorting activity with photos this weekend.
When I came across this one today I was amazed that I hadn't noticed before that I'm holding my doll, Linda! I have often wondered what happened to her.....but with four younger sisters I think she was probably passed down, like so much else. At least I wasn't imagining that I had one of my own.
Three good things
1. So much treasure in the photo boxes.
2. Memories of very special people.
3. Cooking aromas from the kitchen.... Allan is doing dinner.
Sweet

Your sister looks about the same age. My childhood photos are in an album falling to bits from having too many looks!

Thank you for your lovely comments. I'm 18 months older than my sister, and she's 15 months older than my brother. We did get along pretty well...
GGBGBGG.... seven of us all together! My 'baby sister' is ten years younger than me.

Oh look at you and Linda! What a wonderful image. My doll was called Julie. She had a bad eye! And I once cut her fringe! It didn't grow back. :-(
