Hundreds of people lined the streets of Pennywell in Sunderland to greet Princess Anne on a Royal visit.
It was back in 1993 that the Princess Royal visited the Neighbourhood Centre and there was a huge turnout to see her.
The crowds included lots of children who will be in their 30s now, but here they are waiting to say hello to a VIP visitor 33 years ago.
See if you can spot someone you know and if you want more nostalgia, why not visit the Wearside Echoes Facebook page.
More than 21,000 people have already enjoyed the daily dose of retro posts which include photos from the Sunderland Echo archives as well as links to our latest Memory Lane features.
