1940's by the sea



A few weeks ago Hubby and I went to the Bridlington 1940's festival. It took just two hours to drive there and park up at the rugby club in time to climb aboard a vintage bus to take us to the Old Town where the festival was being held.
It was a lovely sunny day.
 I met Winston Churchill and had my photo taken with him!
 There was dancing.......



 George Formby singing......

 strolling along the lanes.......

Bridlington was the location for filming of the new Dads Army film a few years ago





 shopping.......




 eating and drinking.......
 














 You can't visit Bridlington without taking a stroll along the prom so we drove the mile or so down from the Old Town and parked up for an ice cream.




'The Gansey Girl, a sculpture by Steve Carvill depicts a wife knitting a gansey while waiting for her fisherman to return from sea.




 A couple of weeks before our trip to Bridlington Hubby and I went for Afternoon tea at the wonderful Art Deco Midland Hotel, in Morecambe.



 Entertainment was 1930's 40's style with the singer Paul Harper.


















Just a quick (photo heavy) catch up! be back soon!
