!940's weekend
I will interrupt the Postcards from Antigua to take you back in time to our annual visit to Haworth 1940's weekend.
We went on the Saturday and it was a bit showery so lots of umbrellas but there was still a very good turn out.
We arrived by steam train then vintage bus up to the top of the village.
It is June already and I promise I will be back soon to let you know what we did in April and May!!
So much fun to see this! :) Thanks! (And well known soldiers ;)

Hi Lyn - what a lovely day you had - Captain Mannering is so good - it is ages since I went to Haworth I must make a note to go again soon. We have a War Memories weekend here in our village at the beginning of July every year - sadly we miss it every time as we are usually on holiday - but I see the village all dressed up with bunting etc ready for the event. There are floats and exhibitions and everyone says how brilliant it is and in the evening they have a dance in the village hall. Visitors from all over attend now - if you are intrested look out for details in the local Examiner. Viv

ReplyDeleteAnother brilliant 1940's weekend in Haworth. It's just amazing to see everyone participating with such detail. It could be a movie set, but wonderfully it isn't.
