  • My grandfather Frank Bray holding me, my cousin Beverley Duguid looking on.  This was taken at my Grandfather's property 'Kynnumboon' at Murwillumbah, New South Wales - probably around 1952 - I'm guessing that is my mother's shadow on Grandpa's hip.

  • The dreaded school photo - taken at Mudgeeraba State School - not sure why Judy is missing from this photo - maybe found an excuse to skip school that day.
This is Garland and myself in 1960

We only wore shoes to school for special occasions - like school photos or the school inspector coming to inspect the school.  I bet Mum went out and brought our shoes for this occasion.
