Anyone recognise these Hebburn Store Guild ladies who met in the Tennant St Co-op Store Hall?

Can you imagine the wise words that would pass among those ladies.

By gum they would set the world to rights.

Oh to be a fly on the wall when they got going!

I once met a group of 5 or 6 ladies of that age. By they were a right scream ! I got away quick!
