If it was 1987, Mum would have been 77 and Dad 73.

@Alexandoy I think it does us good to go through our old photos from time to time.

You must keep that precious photo. There is a sweet story within a story there. Your parents look so happy.

They do, don't they? Thanks. If it was 1987, it would have been their 50th wedding anniversary.

It would have been the year of their golden wedding so maybe the friend was visiting at that time.

no way have I ever been able to part with any of my photos even copies that I didn't get sent out

You never know when one might get lost. Once a few yrs back a bunch got stolen from storage I imagine they was in something like a suitcase that someone just grabbed thinking they might want what was in it and they got tossed

I cried for weeks. So much fun looking through them I think

bet you loved the memories

It's been a real trip down Memory Lane going through our photos. I'm sorry some of yours got stolen. They'd mean nothing to anyone else.

@JudyEv Your mother had such a beautiful smile, she looked like a sweet, friendly and happy woman. The mother of my mom showed favouritism, one of my male cousin and I were among her favourite, it was a bit embarrassing.

She did. Damian and one of my sister's boys were particular favourites of hers, not that she ever showed any favouritism.

Yes, we'll keep it. We're scanning some too so we have a digital record of them. The colour has faded from this one a bit.

It's impossible for a grandparent or parent for that matter, to throw away any photos of their children or grandchildren. That a lovely photo. I'd keep it.

We aren't throwing out much. If they mean nothing to our boys, they won't find it difficult to throw them when the time comes.

We are trying to spend just half an hour a day on it. Like you, we find it quite draining but at least we are getting rid of a few.
