Pairs ~ Rain or Shine

As the holidays draw to a close here, I've been thinking back to Summers of my childhood. It's the weekend of the Great Dorset Steam Fair, which was an event we went to every year when I was a little girl.


























Here I am circa 1970, in my lovely head scarf, looking delighted to be there!

























Mind you I didn't look a lot happier when the sun was shining.*

Linking up with Helena today.

*Some of you might remember this photo from Storytelling Sunday.

    Many of my childhood photos look like that as well - it isn't being unhappy - it's squinting because of the sun! I still do it to this day.

    Lovely, and very sweet! Not to mention nostalgic ... I remember paddling pools like that too. And steam trains ...

    That's a wonderful pair! Maybe it was the sun that was bothering you - it's more of a squint I think than a look of unhappiness. :)
