Photo a Day Challenge - 1.7.2021 - Hello.


 13th November 1970 David and I arrived back home to Sydney from our almost 3 years of overseas travel, here I am waving Hello to my mum Rosie and brother Nick, dad was parking the car so not in this photo, it was also his birthday.  Lovely memories!

Below saying Hello to our London Taxi at Newport, we'd shipped her home before we took off to travel to the USA via the USSR.

My cousin Andrew sent me this photo of my mother Rosie.

Taken at Andrew and Monica's wedding back in 1977, such a lovely photo.  Today would have been Rosie's 98th Birthday, always fondly remembered.

Lovely memories of Rosie my mum, who made these Angels for me when I was in an Angel Mortal Swap in my SCQuilters Group many many moons ago.

Photo a Day Challenge - 24.9.2020 - Art.

Now here's a find, this 1940 photo of Rosie aged 17 at her Art College with some of her friends, I have no idea who these three are.  Rosie really loved pottery and we have a lot of her wonderful work in our family and here's one below.
