EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print from Memory Lane Prints, titled "Whit Walks Manchester: Patrick Rooney aged 4 tries his hand at a 'big blow'" we are transported back to the vibrant streets of Manchester in the 1960s. The image captures a delightful moment during the Whit Walks parade, where young Patrick Rooney eagerly attempts to play a musical instrument while waiting for his Sunday School group to begin their march. Dressed in an adorable fancy dress costume, Patrick's eyes sparkle with excitement as he holds up a tuba almost as big as himself. With determination etched on his face, he blows into the mouthpiece, attempting to produce a sound that matches the grandeur of the occasion. Standing nearby is bandsman Dennis Barlow, observing and perhaps offering some guidance or encouragement. This photograph encapsulates not only the innocence and joy of childhood but also highlights the importance of community traditions like parades and celebrations. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when children found delight in participating in such events alongside their friends and family. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia within us all. It reminds us that even amidst bustling city life, there were moments when youthful enthusiasm took center stage – just like little Patrick Rooney trying his best to make music on that sunny day many decades ago.
