Nostalgia And Experiences from 1942 to 1969


If you lived through those times it will hopefully revive old memories.

This book covers childhood and schooldays, then continues into the world of work in 1957, and the Rock'n'Roll years and my love of that music. In my twenties I grew restless and worked at a holiday camp before moving to a Swinging London until the end of the 60s.

Sweet rationing/Playing in the street/School playground crazes/Festival of Britain/Comics and catapults/The Goon Show and other radio programmes/Canvey Island floods/Holidays at Butlins/Failing the 11 plus/Skiffle and Rock'n'Roll/First job in London/Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran and other Rock'n'Roll shows/Coffee Bars in Soho/Dagenham train crash/ Visiting Pen friend in France/Holiday camp work and apple picking/On the dole in the North of England /Bedsits in London/Stones in the Park, Dylan at the Isle of Wight and plans to see the world.
