can you help ?
did you see or hear anything ? what – ever ?
athens
i’m having a retro-fortnight on funkypancake, attempting to clear out some of my pending photo backlog. some go back a couple of years, but i don’t think any have appeared on funkypancake before (unless my photo organising system has failed).
so here are some pictures from athens last year.
hoppitty
jane’s family play a game called hoppitty when on the beach. in modern days it’s become a high speed game (as seen here last easter)
here is jane’s auntie barb is seen here playing hoppitty in more sedate times. jane’s mum is wearing the sunhat and pigtails. the other person is cousin Bobbyand it was taken on holiday at Trearddur Bay in 1948
And this photo is of Jane’s great grandfather, a Dr Jackson, on a Newquay family holiday in 1927
how fantastic to have a family game which has spun the generations (with photographic proof to prove it)
