The last post for 2013 comes all the was from Australia... sent in from Joe and showing his wife to be as a young girl in Pantomime in 1949. Lovely pictures, great costumes and sets.
OVER TO JOE: Some photos of my wife, Jean Wilde, for the Hydonian blog site. Maybe someone knows others who were in these pantomimes. Panto was held in the church hall in Gee Cross.
Jean Wilde (aged about 8) is kneeling in front row, fourth from the right.
Same panto - Jean Wilde is sitting in front row, second from right.
Jean and I moved to Australia in 1964 with our two daughters and settled in Canberra.
Cheers and happy new year,
Joe Wilde

Happy New Year To One And All
Thank you for sticking by us, and putting up with the last few months, I cannot see the blog being done on a daily basis in the near future... I personally have not the time or inclination to carry on as before , but will post at least once a month. I do check the emails but cannot answer them all.. What I must do in the New Year is to show a few of the comments I had to block, these comments have gradually got worse.... some I could not publish as they are horrid, nasty and some even downright filthy. I do hope the people/person responsible can move on next year.. What a shame this year as to end on such a matter... but these comments have taken the toll on us and we ask ourselves at times 'Why Bother'... Lets hope this time next year our final post as a much happier tone to it.
