Tattie Time for The Loons folk!

Year is approximate! I presume that the picture was taken somewhere at the Loons, Stromness as all the folk pictured are from that area.

Lily Towers (holding her nephew, Michael Towers), Violet ? (in front of her is Sandy Towers, Michael's brother), Geordie Towers (Lily's brother, the child in front of him is Alan Seator), Ali Towers and Geordie Seator

Comments:
The year must be about 1951-52. It was Ali's tattie planting day at Burnside. Note the stone posts in the fence.
