O'Neills in a school photo

This is a school picture, date 1951, taken outside Miss Macfarlane's (Titch) classroom. Apparently you could have individual pictures taken along with class pictures if you requested it. I was probably told: 1 show up on time, 2. be neat and tidy, 3 BEHAVE....notice my socks are smartly pulled up in place, pants neat and jacket zippered....This all would have changed within 10 mins of picture being taken, as I likely went straight to playing football behind this building on the gravel and my socks would be at my ankles and everything else dishevelled.....I would be 10 and my sister Margaret 12 at the time.....
