This black and white picture was taken in the early 1970's, I think I was around 13-14 years old and my sister was only 7 that time. Taken at the balcony of our town house and I remember eight of us were squeezed in one room with one corridor leading to the balcony. Six of us slept in the room whereas my two elder sisters slept at the corridor with just mat on the floor but covered with a mosquito net to keep cockroaches from "disturbing" them....
Yes, those were the poor, old but happy days!
I notice I still have some puppy fats here!
Many years later....
We are now matured and growing old gracefully... (i hope!)
Time has changed us physically and environmentally...
At least now we do not have to sleep at the corridor
with the fear of cockroaches as our night guests anymore....
LOL...
Any more black and white pictures to share?
