"...at Hickey's..." I belive the correct term is traumatic decompression haematoma.

derangedlemur Took me a moment, but... :D

I knew a farmer once who would stay on "old time", in his case he ignored the one hour movements in March and October. British Summer Time was first established by the Summer Time Act 1916, after a campaign by builder William Willett. His original proposal was to move the clocks forward by 80 minutes, in 20-minute weekly steps on Sundays in April and by the reverse procedure in September. In 1916 BST began on 21 May and ended on 1 October.

DannyM8 So do you reckon the bus service ignored the change in the hour then (presumably alongside other people like your farmer, or maybe to suit people like your farmer)?

National Library of Ireland on The Commons It seems that Old Time was a rural and farming practice. listserv.heanet.ie/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1303&L=seanchas-l... When the idea was introduced in Ireland it was adopted in the towns and cities, but not everywhere by farming communities. In the rural district in which I lived the newly-introduced summer time was called "New Time" but we had "Old Time" all year round. We had to be careful when planning to attend an event elsewhere; was it "New Time" or "Old Time"

Nancy Bavin ? - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16721709

"Miss Nancy Bavin was in orange and white printed chiffon with a natural-toned baku hat. ... "

Whoever it is, she looks fabulous!

beachcomber australia This is not as clear as the others, if only they images were in colour! It does say she was in a 'printed chiffon' dress, and this one doesn't appear to be printed. We were thinking this one might be her: bit.ly/LDg8Nl

Deetje Andriesse you look terrific. I googled the name to find several references in the fashion and social pages of 1930s Sydney. Somewhere out there there will be relatives and friends who will love to see this photo.

beachcomber australia Yes, there are rather a lot aren't there? If this is her, it is of special significance because it is such an early portrait. The other numerous (but poor quality) photos that appear in the society pages are from the mid-late 30's. I think these newspaper articles on Deetje Andriesse are of particular interest -

In 1935 she was photographed by Harold Cazneaux. The photo appeared in the February issue of The Home magazine - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/55537947

In April 1937 she was photographed at work in her new studio in the Victoria Arcade (somebody tell agrippinamaior!). She had just returned from Europe, where she had studied leather-work for 2 years - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/17363797

In 1938 Thea Proctor painted her portrait - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/17538248, which was exhibited at the Macquarie Galleries in November - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/17540382

Also, it would appear she immigrated to Australia in 1922 with her parents and a brother - mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/1922/09/032hou.htm

beachcomber australia pellethepoet She does look lovely. She was known in Sydney's art circles, but as you say pellethepoet, there are no earlier images of her except this, which is not very clear: nla.gov.au/nla.news-article16808372

This one, nla.gov.au/nla.news-article40994836, is clear, but it doesn't look much like her. The description we included above from the newspaper report of the JAVA event seems similar to this woman's clothing, however, it is difficult to say for sure that it is her.
