The picture was taken only fifty years or so before I was born in 1906 but in a Merchant Ivory sort of way reveals a completely different way of life to the 1950s separated as they are by two World Wars and a global economic depression.
The happy couple are my great grandparents Joseph Insley and Florence Lillian Hill. Joseph was a coachbuilder who was born in 1873, one of eight children to Thomas Insley, a wheelwright, and his wife Martha (nee. Johnson) who lived in the village of Shackerstone, near Market Bosworth in Leicestershire. Florence was one of seven children, the daughter of James and Emma Hill from the nearby village of Newbold Verdon.

I have got a number of old posts from when I started blogging that I thought were due for recycling.

I’d never have thought you were that old. Born in 1906; you do carry your age very well 😈

I’ve been accused many times of being a pedantic mongrel; for obvious reasons 😈
