In days gone by. . .

I thought readers may be interested to see this old photograph, taken around 1916, of girls collecting for the lifeboats.

My mother, Lillian (nee) Bosworth, is the girl on the right and believes the picture was taken when she was fourteen - we do not know who the other girls were but the background scene is Rugby market.
