PHOTO: Bernarde and Eileen, with their sons Mick and Greg. Kim had not been born yet -- this would have been about 1953. 

Bernarde was Christie's oldest son (my dad's brother). (He wasn't really that dark skinned, he must have been working out in the sun a lot when this picture was taken.)

You know how I've said sometimes I run across a photo that I don't remember ever seeing before? Well, this is one of those. This picture was actually taken on the day (Easter Sunday 1959) mentioned in Christie's diary. 

Here is another picture that was taken on that Easter Sunday -
