Please carry on CS - if you can find the one with the large-bosomed woman with her chest spilling over the window-sill, rubbing her face with the caption 'I've got a terrible HANGOVER today' or indeed any of the others my parents used to send to family/friends from our Clacton holidays, then it'd cheer me up a great deal.


Recently my mood hasn't been all it could be. Up and down like a bride's nightie, that's been me.

Thanks TM - recognised thats as the one I was talking about. Though the one CS posted was also familiar.


I reckon many copies of both found their way back from Clacton to various neighbours/relatives, whether they wanted them or not.

    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
