But the question is, were you pictured as you did all of these things in South Tyneside in times gone by?

We have nine photos of Guides and Brownies getting up to all sorts of fun in decades gone by.

So be prepared to enjoy some great memories, and if you do, why not tell us more by getting in touch.

Who can tell us where this 1988 photo was taken, and are you in the picture?
