I hunted for a picture taken on a past wedding anniversary. My husband & I don’t usually do more than have a nice meal out, if that. When I finally found a picture in an old scrap-book of an anniversary when we were in England at the British Museum I discovered the CD of those old photos would not open on either of my current computers.
So time for another approach: In 2004 the British people did a lot of 1940s events in celebration of the WWII years. We innocently planned a ride on on Severn Valley Railway and it turned out to be during a special 1940s weekend. It was so much fun seeing people dressed up for the period. In addition to the train ride there was a nice concert of war time music.
That was a great story and pictures too. I’m glad you dug this up to share.
