Thanks for the lovely and kind comments and also the likes.

As you say Stephen, sure there must have been some gloriously colourful days.

I love the economy of this, John. The sideways look.

I was 7 when the fifties ended but don't remember much - starting primary school, a polio vaccination. Yes, it seems grainy and black and white, but there must have been glorious colour on summer days.
