Interessante e curioso registro de uma época! Parabéns!

[@iconaus]

could you help me in subtitling it in portoguese?

[@canallumiere3103]

@@iconausI find it very difficult to subtitle such rare material. I managed it the usual way by clicking on settings on the bar icon. The subtitles were in Portuguese and are OK!

You look at it and think that is is a long time ago but is not that long as my granddad was born in that year.

Some of those children will be old enough by now to have children of there own, to take to the beach.

Is that a joke? I hope so!

[@najgarcia410]

Really? No way..wow.

[@fifthrider]

That's a shame. Children today don't really dress up for clam digging like they used to.
