The following family photo fun fact is in memory of my grandfather, Charles Manclark who would have been 116 years old today (August 10, 2019). Between June 9 to November 11, 1961, my grandparents, Charles and Mary Manclark took a European vacation. On this trip they visited 10 countries including Canada, France, Spain, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, England and Scotland. While driving north on Britain’s A1 road, they stopped to take a couple photos at the border of Scotland and England. As was usual, Charles posed while Mary took a photo of him standing in front of both sides of the "Welcome to Scotland" sign. A fun fact I recently discovered is
if you Google for images of the sign "Haste Ye Back to Scotland", you'll get a number of photos that include one of the photos that Mary took of Charles. In my opinion, this photo is by far the best of the lot including one of the early Beatles who also posed in front of the sign.
If you look closely at the "Haste Ye Back" photo of Charles, you’ll notice him demonstrating one of his very unique skills of being able to touch his nose with his tongue. I’ve always admired this skill but no matter how hard I try, I’ve never been able to master it.
I had hoped to take a photo of Carol and myself posing in front of the sign when we visited Scotland in 2012 but, unfortunately, the "Haste Ye Back" sign no longer exists and has been replaced by a more modern "Welcome to Scotland" sign.
