Smile for Santa...

 
Here are a few jolly ‘Santa’ snaps from my collection. I’ve been saving them up for this very merry month. Mind you, on closer inspection- I’ve zoomed in and everything- I’m not at all convinced that any of them are the real Father Christmas! Still, they are rather fun…
Nice bit of set dressing going on here- very good for dating this photo!
Rather like his choice of outfi, too. Well who isn't a fan of an oversized buckle, eh?...
 

This Santa didn’t much care for the tailored look.
He knew that a lot of fabric could cover a multitude of sins...

 


 And  finally, this Santa likes to keep pictures of us all....
 
 

Here's to the next time,

Daddy’s in the R.A.F

Today’s R.A.F Friday came into my possession on three separate occasions.
You see, I have a favourite dealer that I just cannot pass without flicking through the box of old piccies  (me and old photo's- oh I get lost in them!), but it has come to my attention that the photos must get filtered, so groups and ‘familiar faces’ pop up on each visit! In this instance, the photos have appeared a bit like an unfolding story, with a new family member appearing on the scene each time. It has taken me several moths to reunite this darling family....
1.
Finding 'Daddy'...
 
Naturally I gravitate towards dashing airmen, and thought I had found the crown jewels when I spied these two!
 
2.
Mummy and Baby makes three...

When I found this snap, I rather excitingly announced to myself, "This must be Mummy! It's the same rocky whatsit in the background" and sure enough it was!
I'm even beginning to think that this may be their garden... :o
 
We three...
How cute? Mummy is perfect, Daddy has the best curly top EVER and Baby is cute but hilarious!
 
 
 
Mummy is such a beauty- love her turban and coat- those lapels!
And what about ole grumpy chops? I told you. Hilarious!

One stylish mode of transport parked up near the rocky whatsit,
and another of Mammy and her babbie chick (again, pulling a face!).
 
3.
Then along came Brother and Grandma too...
The same babbie chick waving at Daddy?
 
Oh look! Little babbie is all grown up! Can't see what she is clutching though, but she is wearing a lovely little Fair Isle cardigan.... And the little chap in the natty romper is the newest addition to the clan! 

Oh and we mustn't forget Grannie! How she looks like the little chap- not sure is she's the Ma of Mummy or Daddy though- thoughts?
 
 
So there you are chums, a little play in three acts!
Cute family, eh?
You never know, more pictures might appear for me to add to the album, but we shall see...
 
 
Cheerio for now and
all the best for the weekend
