Memories of Holidays Past – This can be either a Zoom (or live) PowerPoint presentation with a commentary throughout and a touch of music. With no holidays allowed at the present time, we can at least look back at holidays we have enjoyed. This presentation will take you back to those childhood holidays in a caravan, Guest House and Butlins. Everything from knobbly knee competitions to calamine lotion. From Sunday School annual treats, to outings to Blackpool, the 1960s package holiday and then to futuristic holidays and a few laughs on the way.
