with 5p in my pocket

This is a photo of me- aged about 9 ( I think) as a Brownie) I can't remember why we were all at the church holding the pennant but I don't think it could be Thinking Day ( which is February) or Rememberance day ( which is November) as it looks to warm

Anyway the photo is outside the church and I was one of the supporters of the pennant- along with Susie Waring.  the title refers to the fact that as a Brownie you were supposed to have a 5P in your purse at all times in case you needed to make a phone call in an emergancy.

This Lo is for the challenge at Another Freaking Scrapbooking Challenge  which is a sketch along with something related to Brownies, Guides, Scout, Cubs etc

  2. Karen - I LOVE this layout, and your memory of being urged to keep 5p in your pocket! I remember the same, but, of course, we were to use Canadian change!! Thanks so much for playing along with another Freaking scrappy challenge ... Don't forget our other challenge this month (1 Feb) and to play along with our Valentines Day Blog Hop for a chance for the prize!!

  4. Fabulous Lo! Great photo, and wondeful memories to go with it. The thought of having to use a pay phone is getting to be an alien idea to the kids these days.

    Love to see you on the blog hop as well, thanks for playing along with us. x
