(©2020 Pete Ryan) This is a day out for the residents of Rachel and Dryden streets in 1947. I am told that it was an annual 'charabanc' outing for families in Rachel/Dryden streets. My uncle remembers the luxurious seating on the coach and the heady smell of orange peel and chocolate with a hint of cigar smoke. Do you know anyone on the photograph?
With the help of my auntie I have been able to put a name to some of the happy faces posing for the box camera . Back row from L to R: Lily Tomkins, Joan Westhoff, George Pratt Jr., unknown, Christy Mylett, unknown, Larry Sinnott. Second row L to R: Kathleen Sinnott, unknown, Bobby Banks, Mrs McNally, unknown, unknown.
