was it not a may qeen party we used to have them back then
The flowers suggest May Queen.
Love this photo, had a cowboy suit like the lad at the front.Thought I was the Bees Knees, pity we don't have get togethers like this anymore.
I agree , I would say it's a May Queen. We used to dress up in fancy dress with the Queen resplendent in her Mam's lace curtain and a cardboard crow. We used to parade round the streets collecting pennies and then have a picnic-tea. Happy Days!
That should have read "cardboard CROWN"
