The gossip was correct, Kate. I used to see her standing by the roadside under the railway bridge by Church station (she lived opposite). She used to step out in front of lorries and flag them down.
My first husband got booked for speeding and had to appear at Church Magistrates Court (just the clock remains there now) She was up in court the same morning for urinating in a public place. The only reason he was speeding through Church was to avoid her, because she had jumped out into the road trying to stop his motorbike on one occasion previously.

I remember him walking through marks and spencers when I was a kid doing his stuff...

Hi I was at Morts from 56 on. My dad used to say stay away. Of course it made me go all the more. The sweat box it was called. The teddy boys with brothel creepers and long jackets. But some great jivers went there.
Have many great memories but I wouldn't share them with my grandchildren I don't think they would believe me anyway.
