Veronica: Is that you with the dimple cheeks, and love the fifty’s look.

It is me John G, I'm wearing white gloves and white shoes and a big white bag with nothing in it. Perhaps I was going to the market on the way back for some spuds.! I loved the fashions then - I can't believe it's sixty years since..

Is that you, Dolly dear? How pretty! I love your dress. Beautiful. my friend!

I left out the big white 'sailor collar' as well Irene. Everything was teamed with white in those days and American tan stockings!. As long as your legs were tan it didn't matter about the rest!;o). Oh! And a sticky net under-skirt underneath!) Yep those were the days!

Veronica, I love this photo of you, it's lovely.Yes! We're have all those years gone? American tan stocking, yes those were definitely the days.

American tan stockings from Margaret down the old arcade that all we lassies wore.

Veronica you look lovely, reminded me of my courting days in 60/61 walking round the park with my girlfriend on a Sunday in summer , believe me or not you look just like her on this photo, hope for your sake you still look just like her now after 60+years

That’s nice of you to say that Dougie. The hair has gone greyish - I think we all wish we could stay young. It was another world then….
