When Men Wore Hats. District Nurses Rode Bicycles. Roads Were Devoid Of Yellow Lines. And People Said "Good-Morning" To Fellow Passengers On The Local Bus.
Hi, John. Good to hear from you. Maidstone and District, eh ? I've travelled on their Charabancs a few times !!! I have previously attended Mass at Saint Henry and Saint Elizabeth, Sheerness, as well. Didn't see you, though. Plus, did you ever visit Butterworth, Malaya ?
I've missed some good posts here, sorry. The Stained glass windows, sewing lesson and buses are really interesting.
ReplyDeleteThe Maidstone & District buses dominated my young life - it took one over 2.5 hours to drive the 50+ miles from Sheerness to Victotia.

ReplyDeleteWe were married there, and I went to the school of the same name (changed now). Left Sheerness in 1959!
ReplyDeleteNo I never made Butterworth, but I had two pals (Victor Tuan and Said Mustaffa) who flew out of there with the Malaysian Air Force
