This is … my Mum
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers out there! This is my Mum. There’s every chance that she’ll be horrified that this photo is now out there in the blogosphere!
Mum is/was a nurse - pretty obvious from the photo really. This photo must be around fifty years old - now I’m giving away your age again Mum! I love this photo, for many reasons.
Thanks again Mum for everything that you are to me and everything that you have done for me. I wish that I was a little more eloquent so that I could truly express what a wonderful mother and person you are. I love you very much. Happy Mother’s Day.

I suspect I am your mother’s age ~~, and a lot of my school friends became nurses. In those days, each school had it’s own distinctive cap, much like headgear for Catholic nuns.

Now that is the biggest nursing cap I’ve ever seen. Today’s nurses would be horrified at having to wear it. I guess sometimes change is good. The caps were always more trouble than anything. Enjoyed the photo, though.
