Let’s face it. We just love to reminisce on the past – especially when it is filled with smiles.

And that is exactly what we have here with a series of 9 South Tyneside face painting photos from times gone by.

There’s a Westoe village fair scene, faces at the Jarrow Festival and a funn day at West Park in South Shields.

So why not take a look and see if you can spot someone you know.

9. Wonderful at Westoe Crown Primary
