I'd go further. I'd say that a road safety display team from the local Met Police traffic garage were paying the school a visit on this day. There is also a motor cycle parked up at the bottom left and a couple of other vehicles nearby. I remember the same thing taking place at my primary school, which was not so many miles away from here. |

My Dad was a postman and driver here during the 1950's and 60's until he retired in the mid 1970's. They always organised a Christmas Party for the staff's kids, my younger sister and I went to a few. The GPO was a good solid employer then, sadly not anymore. The Post Office Fellowship had hotels and holiday sites all around the country run for the benefit of the members. One in Westgate-on-Sea, Ledge Point appears on this web site, great place for a couple of weeks for a child brought up in a working class North London council home. Something I have never forgotten. |

My Uncle Jim Green was a coach builder here for quite a few years. We always made sure the coach we went on to the seaside in was a Duple built coach. They don't build them like them anymore, full of character and no air-con? |
