One of our most popular features is back for another week.
Flashback Friday, your opportunity to take a trip down memory lane, is here once again.
Each week we trawl through the archives to bring you a gallery of all the social events that were going on in our fine city in this month in years gone by.
Some of the photos you will undoubtedly remember.
Some you may want to forget, depending on how fondly you look back at fashions of the past.
Have a flick through the gallery above and see who you can spot!
