The pictures were taken around 1948 this is based on one of the pics has dad in uniform and that's when he was in the RAF
I appreciate these perhaps should be on the B&W blog but I felt they deserved to be here. Not all nailed focus but you will appreciate for me they are great family history.

Glad you shared these Pete. Great pictures from a great era. The fashions and hairstyles 40's/50's. I've got some old family pictures like these; I'd love to have a time machine and go back.
You look so much like your dad.
These are such great pics to have ... and what memories for you and Dad - just lovely..
A lovely post Pete and what a trip down memory lane for you and your dad. Fascinating to revisit the era - it always makes me smile when I see old photos how smart everyone always looked :)
There are boxes and boxes of slides and cine films at mum and dad's house - I will have to do some research at what can be done with them so I can view some of the old photos and films.
i have a portable slide reader :D
