One last visit to the beach before the journey home, taken #OnThisDay 77 years ago, 2 October 1948.

Even though I already knew from the caption these photos were taken on Hayling Island, I immediately recognised where Jack and Mary are sitting on the beach as Eastoke from having recently visited there. They're sitting at Eastoke Corner, roughly where the car park, playground and toilets are today, near the Hayling Light Railway station.

#OnThisDay, 1 October 1948, and it's nearly the end of the honeymoon. Jack heads to a local garage to give the car a check over and pump up the tyres ready for the journey home.

It's a sunny end to September #OnThisDay in 1948 with Jack snoozing on the beach at Hayling Island. The Met Office weather archives confirms it to have been a blue sky day with some cloud, temperatures around 19°C.

#OnThisDay 77 years ago, 25 September 1948, Jack and Mary take a bus ride around Hayling. Although the building behind Mary in the second photo quite clearly seems to read "The Bar Club", I've not been able to locate where this building is/was.

The open-top Southdown bus in the handwritten caption is referred to as "the Ferry Special".

Oops! The script I use to post these images decided to stop working the other day and I hadn't realised. Prepare for 3 days worth of posts in as many minutes coming right up!

Looks like it might be another beach day for Jack and Mary on their honeymoon on #HaylingIsland. Wherever they are going, Jack's taking the deckchairs!

#OnThisDay 23 September 1948.

77 years ago today, 20th September 1948, Jack and Mary were on day 2 of their honeymoon enjoying the beach at Hayling Island, with ice creams from the Eastoke café.

I can assure you that today is not beach weather.

The day after getting married, Jack and Mary headed down to Hayling Island for their honeymoon. Look out for more photos from their newly-wed adventures over the coming days.
