Nice pic marshman.

when that picture was taken they still had rationing and yet both the the family and dog look in fine fettle . They wouldn't of feed the dog on complete or tinned stuff so him and the family where probably in what ever he caught so he probably was a real pot filler !

And I bet every family in that era had a lot more respect for dogs than some of today's family's.

What an incredible photo. They all look a damn sight healthier than many youngsters these days, travellers or not, but the older woman ... I bet she's a lot younger than we'd guess. How I would love to be able to read their lives from a photo.
