Old Folks 40th
anniversary treat
This newspaper
cutting was loaned to Baipip by Mrs Anne Whitlam with the following words:
“I am assuming that this event would have taken place around the time of
Prince Charles and Lady Diana’s wedding. My parents May and Arthur Brown
are at the forefront of the photograph. I believe the lady looking through
the centre of mum and dad is Mrs Vaux and the lady far left could be Mrs
Horsefall.” Anne Whitelam August 2005
The chap in the
centre with the glasses is Horace Austin
