About this memory

Norma-Ann Coleman (née Clayton).

“This photo was taken during typical ‘exam weather’ when it was too nice to stay indoors to study. We used to sit on the grass reading and deluding ourselves that we were working as hard as we would have been in the university library. It was the time of poetry, ‘flower power’ and ‘beautiful people’ and I couldn’t resist trying to get in on the act. I loved my denim trouser suit and felt really trendy in it.” – Norma-Ann Coleman
