You do it your way - I’ll do it mine!
ReplyDeleteAlways the way . . .
Delete" I say Cynthia, ought one be saying cheese?"
ReplyDeleteAlison in Wales x
Ha ha - love it!
Delete"but he told us don't move!"
ReplyDeleteBrilliant!
DeleteThe sun blinded their eyes. And skin. Then they were further flashed by the camera man.
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness . . . naughty:-)
DeleteI told you this was not the bus stop, we are going to be late, I got dressed up for this and my shoes are now dirty.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so real:-)
DeleteOh drat, I thought we were to have white gloves, mine are black, but still jolly.
ReplyDeleteWell spotted - and isn't it embarrassing when you haven't got quite the right accessories?
Delete"Ethel, do you think we shall blend in with these Earthlings?" asked Doris once they had beamed down from the Mothership.
ReplyDeleteNot a chance, not these days :-)
DeleteFirst thought, my mother and maybe a friend
ReplyDeleteThose were the days.
DeleteYou stupid cow for choosing here to stand here. My heels have sunken into the ground and I am going to have to step out of them and pull them out by hand.
ReplyDeleteThere were a couple of funny contributions.
Oh, yes, high heels and grass - a bad combination.
ReplyDeleteToo funny. Though I do love old pictures. And I love seeing the styles of the times. So feminine. Oh and the gloves. My grandmother always bought me new white gloves when I would go stay with her for a week in the summer.
ReplyDeleteYou weren't dressed properly unless you wore gloves - I wonder when that rule of etiquette died out.
DeleteI'm not going unless ice cream is involved.
ReplyDeleteIt will be arranged specially for you ;-)
DeleteI loved reading your and your other commenter's efforts, and Jaycee's is my favourite. I was thinking along the same lines, but Jaycee absolutely nailed it! xxx
ReplyDeleteIt's fun seeing what other people come up with.
DeleteWhere's the party?
ReplyDelete:-))
DeleteThat was one weird photo. Makes me wonder what its true back story was.
ReplyDeleteWe shall never know . . .
DeleteFirst day at the Vatican. First Day at Hogwarts. Fall 1939
ReplyDeleteThat covers all eventualities, I think!
DeleteI love all the things people have come up with! I read this later in the evening again. Sigh. Nothing creative here lol
ReplyDeleteEvenings are not always good for creativity ;-0)
