Gone but not forgotten. R.I.P.
Thought I would share these family photos partying after the war around mid Fifties. My wifes family Moseley / Kings Heath area. Did'nt they look sophisticated in those days. Times where just starting to get better!!
 
Bob they look well off to me..great photos thanks for sharing them with us

Thanks for sharing Bob . Nobody seem to hold these sort of parties nowadays. Mind you modern houses are built for gatherings, so small.

These photos I know little about. My mrs can be seen in one as a very young girl on the extreme left of the picture so I reckon its a family gathering of some sort in the mid fifties, Halesowen area. Not so sophisticated as you party Bob. I would say the beer is flowing and the humour is very much of The Goons style. Must have been one hell of a party.
 
Great photos Arkrite looks like they are having a good old Knees Up once again thanks for sharing them with us
