A world of Black and White

Tomorrow sees the start of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations. New Hutton has organised an extravaganza, including the annual sports day, discos for young and old, tea party, hog roast and I dread to say New Hutton's Got Talent and Karaoke. Everywhere is decorated with red and white flags and bunting, and I'm sure many photos and videos will be taken in glorious colour. One thing that seems to be missing is a Fancy Dress Competition. To celebrate the Coronation I entered at least two competitions. No shop bought costumes - both home made and recorded for posterity in two small black and white snap shots.



These were taken outside our house at Sand Aire, one of a row of cottages that were demolished to make way for the new modern Provincial Insurance building (now "luxury" flats and penthouses).
