Wish you were here.....
For more than 100 years people
have come to Geldeston Lock to
enjoy themselves.
Here are some of the postcards
they sent to their friends and
family.
We’re grateful to James Hartley
of Beccles who collected these
postcards and let us borrow them.
1. Can you read the different handwriting?
2. Why do people send postcards when
they are on holiday?
3. Are they saying the same sorts of things
that we say on postcards today?
4. Are the people wearing the same sort of
clothes as we wear on holiday?
5. Can you find the one with the very odd
message – not linked to holidays at all?
6. The last one is undated - can you work
out approximately what year it might
be?
