Dance Club 1950s

My mum loved dancing and here she is circa 1953 ready to light up the dance floor. She used to work in Kowloon's NAAFI shop - wherever that was? - where she started learning English from the servicemen who used to pop in. Like many couples of her generation, she met my dad at dance club but my dad never told me which one the boys of 28 Squadron used to frequent!
