“This is me with my sisters and baby brother at the Metropole. (L–r): Nellie, Pauline, me (aged 10) and Eithne. In the pram is our brother Paul. Our mother always dressed us the same. I remember getting the bonnets in a shop in Pims on George’s Street, an old-fashioned drapery and general clothing place.”

(1950)
