ON THE BEACH...

I've been meaning to post these photos for ooh, about as long as I've been writing this blog. But it entailed all this taking the frame off the wall, fiddling around with it, scanning and cropping you see. Am lazy. Hadn't you guessed?

The people in the photos are my family, which is a weird thought as I've no idea who the hell they are per se, but I am assured they are definitely my people. I don't know when the pictures were taken, though I thought they had a date on the back in pencil - it was either 1921 or 1931 - and an illegible place name. That's either faded away or it was on another old photo and I got it mixed up as there's nothing there now. I enjoy the mystery and I love looking at the photos and thinking what kind of lives they had. They look pretty happy don't they? I love that the women look like they're having a whale of a time striking poses in their palazzo pants.
