I think this is a photo of me (note groovy sunglasses) walking my dog Zoe. I used to walk her along by the sea from Folkestone through Sandgate to Seabrook (in high heels!). I think it was about 1962-64 and I remember the coat, which was Kingfisher Blue.
Mum in law worked at Sunny Sands Cafe, which is further down on this photo and to the left, now flats have been built there. When I first met my husband we used to go there and meet his mother, and when I had children we all used to go and wait for her on the sands just below the Cafe. It is so sad to see flats there now, but the memories remain.
