Denzil,

I think I have got it now. Your uniform was, if I recollect, a large white canvas top with extra long sleeves but no hand holes, which was secured with leather straps down the back, and the sleeves tied in criss cross fashion across the front. I remember some people though it a bit restrictive, but it had a certain amount of 'street Cred'. People crossed over the road when they saw you coming.

Yes Ruth, I had to wear a tie and we were NEVER allowed to wear trousers like they do now. I was at school in the 60's and the mini skirt was in but we had to wear our skirts a certain length but we would roll them over at the waistband when a certain teacher wasn't around to make them shorter, we got caught many times and told off for this! LOL Nite Ruth sleep well Smile

Not as far as I know Denzil. I used to work as a groom at a riding stable and in return was given riding lessons. I used to fall off a lot.

Ray.

Morning Denzil

I expect that the worthy citizens of Bodmin are  heartbroken that you do not visit their town. Go on, be a Redruth Flag bearer.

Ray.
