Me Mum And Dad...



...on their wedding day, London, 1960.

  1. That actually looks pretty contemporary. They look hip.

    My parents married in '61 and they look a right pair o' squares in the photos. Although their wedding car was a MkII Zodiac, so it wasn't all bad.

  2. Hey Guy, talking to my mum she says they were into the whole beatniks thing, going to jazz clubs and hanging out at coffee shops in Soho. So yes, they were hip for sure. Mind you I was born in 1960 so I reckon that put a stop to all the partying. Man looking at all the cars in the background and the total absence of traffic London would of been a great place to live back then.
    Cheers bruv

  3. My mum and dad were living in Brixton in 1960... I'll have to dig out some photos.

    Simpler times, for sure.
