“This is my Mother (EvelynWilliams) and myself (Alwyn aged 6) and my brother Alva (aged 9) up from the country. I like this photo because it shows my mother with two of her five sons on a day out in Dublin and we are all dressed in out ‘sunday best’ – including short pants, ties and caps – very smart. It also shows in the background an old car and how busy the street is with people. What a change from a small rural town where we came from.”
