Hi Anne! Glad you're pleased with them :) Gillian, you're welcome! Mandy :) xx

Mandy, Many Thanks for the 2 postcards, they are fantastic. A really nice surprise parcel after a long day!!!! Will email you later. Love, hugs and prayers Anne xxxx

Mandy, that's a lovely gesture. :-)))) There is a large group one that I would like to zoom in on but can't - I don't go on msn much (GB or GR pics only). Is there a way to zoom in please, or maybe you could email me the scan? Think my grandma may be in there, at a training college - long shot but worth a look! Also I am keen on the older Chichester cathedral card - maybe I should pm you? thanks xx Jen

Hi Mandy, have now dared to go under the bed and pull the box out that contains all the old photos. Found the photo I was thinking of but it's not the same person. Thanks for letting me see yours anyway, they were great.

Unfortunately I can't claim any as my rellies. What lovely photographs and I do hope you find some homes for them as that would be really good for you and the recipient. I particularly love the group ones of the outing and the evacuees. The ones of people on their own are so like my family photos. A lovely idea. Jacky :-)

Big Thankyou from Daughter Mandy, Carcassonne will add to the Robin Hood memorabilia! :)) Chris :)

Hello Mandy.....nobody there for me but what a pleasure to see them. You worked hard to present these - it would be great if just one member on the site found someone in the pictures that meant something to them. Job well done. Best wishes Helen

Just had a look and what a wonderful collection. they must be priceless to anybody that can claim those. Just love the old clothes and to think of the old fashion way of taking photos. The old box brownies........ wouldnt swap my digital for one of those.

Mandy, have had a look and can't claim anyone or anywhere, but really fell for the little girl with her bucket and spade. If no one claims her, might she come to live with me please? She is so sweet. Liz x

You are a lovely lady, Mandy, I will have a look at those pics and cards. Liz x

Got it! Hope they are reunited with their owners. Sunny

Yes I put all of it in. Copy & paste it from Mandy's first post on here, then delete the brackets. If you can access the Photos on GR & Next Generation on MSN then you will be able to access Mandys. :0) Joan

Hi Joan , yes I did, do I have to type it in it's entirety. i.e. hhtp:// etc: Do I have to buy into msn to view it? regards Sunny

Hi Sunny Silly question but you did delete the brackets when you typed in the web addy ?? :0) Joan

nudge for reply ......please............ I am not the phantom Sunny

Would love to see them, why can't I get into the site please? http://groups(.)msn(.)com/MandysOldPostcards. Where am I going wrong please? Sunny

Mandy What a great collection. Thank you for sharing them with us. I hope you find the people they belong to.

Found other postcards Mandy, wonderful!! Hope sincerely that someone recognises family or events, chidrens' are lovely,happy memories for them. Will PM you Mandy. Mau xx

Oh Mandy, I do hope that someone recognises someone on the photos. Please let us know if it happens.

I found them Mandy !! Sadly not mine, lol !! The one where you have put 2 men, one in uniform, one in civvies, I think the one in civvies is actually wearing a hospital uniform, which soldiers wore when injured & went to a hospital. The uniform was a grey colour, the lapels were white & the tie was bright red, cos I have photos of my granddad wearing one just like it. :0)) Joan xxxxx
