This would have been taken around 1950 in the West Indies. It's my Mum, Julia (on the right) and her brother Piers.
On the back of the photo is written:
"Going down to the Beach in St Vincent with Di the garden girl."
I love how she's carrying everything!
Leave a comment and let me know if you have an old photo on your blog this week.

What a very interesting life your mother has had!
Di the garden girl is so very clever - she must have been a mum herself - adept at doing a thousand things at once!
thats some balancing act!!!!
Hi Hannah, my father grew up in Rhodesia and I have memories of visiting my grandparents and seeing all the people carrying things on their heads....we used to practice with books :-)
PS Ethan my No 1 son and I are pretty sure we saw a few kicks in the waist area of Clover (not that she has a waist) so hopefully she is heavy with calf. She is breathing shallowly and not keen on running after Douglas and Deidre when they race off down the laneway.! Will have to do a post on my handsome Bull, you will love him! My cows are Dexters so they are only half size....thats why Clover looks so round, she has short little legs :-)
I just tagged you for a blog award if you are interested in playing along. Head on over to find out details. No pressure though.
