Lucky you Iam64! I can remember one of my dresses as being white, shot with silver thread and having 3 little navy blue bows at the front waist and a navy blue sash belt, tied in a bow at the back. Another year we had a matching dress and "duster coat" which was thought as being terribly modern and grown up!
Not sure if it still goes on Roses because so many of the chapels and Sunday Schools have long gone, turned into flats, shops and mosques now from when I was last in the area. It was a lovely era and Iam64 has given me lovely quick trip down memory lane!
Good Morning Sunday 8th November 2026
A general election (democratic eh not like Hamas) is taking place in Israel on Tuesday next week.

I've waited 55+ years for that, only to find I don't actually like Clarke sandals! Just my kind of luck!
