Bognor 1961


This is me, and my nearest sister, in Bognor. I'm the little one, and aged four. I don't remember the day, but I do recall that the dresses were mauve and white gingham, and my shoes, my lovely shoes, were pink patent. I cried when I outgrew them. Maybe my love of white doves stems from this occasion?

Lovely smiles.

Is that where the love of doves began?

Oooh, ooh - we used to go to Bognor when I was little! Remember clearly staying in a little 30s-style hotel which did "high tea" for children and staying up late to watch Miss World on TV. Those were the days!

Gosh I remember the good old days, British seaside holidays on the Butlins Bognor Regis holiday park. I remember we used to go there every year without fail, and my Grandad god bless him loved it.
