Ah Joanne, I, my brother and mother spent a few months in Bedford during the war. We went to get away from the air raids, but whilst we were away it was quiet. The Germans waited until we returned!!!! I went to the John Bunyan school in Bedford, and we had regular visits to Whipsnade Park, and punts up the river Ouse. Sylvia

Hi! I was born in a tiny village in Essex called Stones Green in a cottage that had a ladder to go upstairs. Thank goodness we moved from there when I was a few months old to Walton-on-Naze Essex where I lived until my marriage in 1949. Best wishes from Sylvia now in Perth WA
