Southerndown Vintage Rally - a photo on Flickriver

In the mid to late 1970s I was employed as a Residential Social Worker at a long-stay children and young person home in a south London borough. During my stay there I took many hundreds of photos of the youngsters in my care and of the activities in which we were involved.

This is the first rally that I took "C" and "D" along when I was exhibiting some of my engines, we stayed overnight at my parent's house a few miles away. Although "D" looks bored out of his mind he probably wasn't as he and "C" became two of my regular rally attendees. They hadn't yet got used to me pointing a camera at them.
