Muriel and Charlie Webb


A few years ago my Nanny (my grandmother) gave me her old computer, on it there was a great deal of old family photos. The computer itself has long since died but I was able to dig up some of the photos recently so I thought I would share.


My nanny Muriel. I'd like to think that I look a bit like her. :D


Nanny and her sister Joan.

My Grandad Charlie.

Nanny, What a betty!




This just looks like the best holiday ever.



Arn't those glasses amazing?!


Grandad and a friend of his in Germany.

This photo was saved as The Custard House Gang. Nanny tells me The Custard House was the name of a pub where she used to go dancing every Saturday.

On their Wedding day.


I may be a little bias but I think she looks just amazing.
I hope I look as beautiful on my wedding day.

Nanny and my dad, Leslie.

Look how smart dad looks!

Flash forward to the late seventies. Left to right:

There you have it, the Webbs!
I hope you enjoyed,

  4. Your Nanny was a bombshell! Love those bathers with the white trim. I agree, definite family resemblance.
