AFTER a few moves, I now live in deepest Herefordshire, but was born and bred in Charlton, and served my apprenticeship in Evesham in the Fifties.

We can only get the Journal occasionally, but follow it with great interest.

What is quite noticeable is the amount of theft and vandalism reported in most issues.

Surely it was not this widespread in our day?

I would love to hear from anyone of my era, to compare notes.

I can be contacted at emersonfryer@btinternet.com
