They were rockin' and-a-rollin' in the aisles at a nursing home for the elderly at the weekend.
Drainpipe trousers, winklepickers and bootlace ties were the order of the day at the Mayflower House summer fete in Billericay.
Energetic visitors at the fete at the Thameside Community Healthcare Trust home had plenty of opportunities for foot tapping and jiving.
For those who weren't quite up to speed there were lots of other attractions to keep them amused.
These included family favourites such as face painting, a tombola and the chance to sample some home made fayre.
The highlight of the fayre was the opening of a new patio and unveiling of a new ambulance.
Both were bought with the help of Billericay League of Friends and the town's round table.
