Thanks Woolley

I had an absorbing time looking through them; my eyes lit up when I came to the medics but none were my folks.

What a surprise to find the sikhs, etc., amongst them.  If I'd been younger I think I'd have fancied wearing one of those fur jackets!

Glad you enjoyed them, I certainley did, but sadly didnt recognise anyone either.

Scrimnet - Any ideas on dates when they were taken  ??? one as a sign saying 1914-1919
