Love Is In The Air...


These are my latest photo finds and were found last week. The lady said they were attracting a lot of attention form the men folk, but that they were too ‘wedding-y’ for the likes of them….Perhaps too pretty, pretty for the manly man?  Well, it’s their loss I say! Any roads, they are now safely tucked up in the TBT archives.

 How can you resist a wartime wedding and one with dashing chaps in the RAF at that- (see photo no.4 for said dashing chap- the one on the left with the moustache...)

 
 
Cute, eh!
 
At a later date, some kind soul (thank you whoever you are!) had taken the time to write some information about the pictures… my only complaint is that they didn’t tell us about the bride and the date of the wedding. It's all very well saying WWII, but the war took up quite a few years!

 
 
I’m rather liking the checked coat and the Bridesmaids dresses with their ‘hey nonny, nonny’ hats!


                                     "My Shack"                           "Thacker centre taken in India WWII"
 
I love how the photo on the left was obviously taken outside somewhere, but they still thought is necessary to use a backdrop, and a rather wrinkly backdrop at that.... does make me chuckle!
 
              Also in with the wedding photos were two photos of L.A.C. Thacker out in India (above),
and this one of his wife and what I presume is their diddy dot outside the Anderson shelter. I’m rather pleased with this photo as it’s my first original snap of an Anderson… simple things. ; )
 
 
"Taken Home Harborne"
And here is is one last wedding photo for good measure....


All in all I think this was a rather nice little find, and thank goodness for all those manly men for leaving these little treasures for me to buy instead!


Cheerio
Here's to the next time...
