Re: Pat .
If I find the photo I'll post it Pat. I am not good at dusting so perhaps I will imagine a really big one.

What a delight, a tea party and a celebration of peace at last.
If you did not get a trophy cup, then you should find one in a 2nd hand shop and polish it up, with a label attached "first prize" for sharing it here on Blogit.

PP dibs and dabs seem to materialize quite solidly, but I have been proved wrong on some occasions or imagined the sequence. I have the photo somewhere. Thank you.

Neat memories! And, as Kabu says, I'm sure that sixpence was welcome - in those days it was still real money...

That is a sweet, child's story... your joy in playing the ghost...
and the fact that you remember receiving a fancy cup as a prize but the cup was probably fantasy. Don't you think at least "half" of whatever we remember from our youth is most probably 'fantasy'?
