    I have to like this picture. Most photos you see from the past are so formal, posed. Even if everyone is smiling.

    This photo kinda connects us all……

    Look at the expression on the lady “seated” 3rd from the lft!

    • Dana says:

      YES I LOVE HER!!! hahaha she kind of looks like she’s terrified of falling over and laughing at the same time. :)

      • Joe says:

        Or the picture was taken just as she was about to announce her discomfort by using the four letter “s” word.

        • CutiePie says:

          Or maybe she’s laughing so hard she has to pee!!

    I really like this picture. They all look like they’re having so much fun. I would LOVE to have a photo of my grandparents like this.

    The old feller 3rd from right looks so dignified in the midst of it all. ‘Spose his wife (right end) is the one who started it all? Cute!

  12. casual friday says:

    Oh, my, was I off! Just read the background:
    “L-R: Lady Rachel Davidson (lady in waiting to the duchess of Kent); Nada, Marchioness of Milford Haven, Lady Zia Wernher, Georgina Wernher, the Marquess of Milford Haven, Prince Philip of Greece, duchess of Kent, Sir Harold Wernher, Myra Wernher, and unidentified woman.”
    Thank you, Marlene. Now we Colonials understand the joke better!
