Thanks, NanaSue

So many things to look at. I noticed the boy with the mangle. I used to love turning that, and the sewing machine handle as well.

And the picture of Arthur Askey. Was watching first episode of Porridge last night, and Fletcher said to Godber - "that's Barraclough over there, the one that looks like Arthur Askey on stilts. :-)

Some things like the Mini launch I associate with 60's - but it was just in the 50's :-)
