My Old Pal
Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: MY OLD PAL
I call her my cousin, although she's not, but we've known each other since we were three years old - so longer than almost anyone else.
We played together, went to school together, emigrated to the States together with our families, were teenagers together, went to college together for a year, and we still share a common world view and are really, really close except for geographically. (Ruth is in Florida and I'm in Vermont). We still manage to get together once in a while and that's always wonderful.
This is a photo of us in 1964. We have just moved to this country and Ruth's parents have thrown a party. We're 10.
Ruth and I are doing one of our regular "party pieces" and we're singing "K-K-K-Katie" a pretty insensitive song about stuttering but very appreciated by our "fans".
See below for another one of us taken shortly before we moved from England.

Thanks, Rick! I should have known you would know that song! Our families would have had some great sing-a-longs, together - with the exception of our obscure (to Americans) English songs. And I bet your aunt didn't mind at all. : )
Thank you, Alan. My mother says she has no memory of that game - so maybe it was a local Rayleigh, Essex game only!
Thanks for suggesting the group, Marta. This photo - and several more I own - were taken by an amateur photographer who developed them in his own darkroom.
Here's another:
The funny thing is - being directed there - I assumed the"Nostalgic Nineties" - was the 1890s - come to find out it's the 1990s - and the woman explaining the game was in her late 20s! Her game went on to being far more complicated with all the possible commands, but other that that...
I wonder where she was geographically?
Thanks, Alan, so much fun to see!
