Chemist

I lived in Esh Winnning from about 1956 to 1968. My name was Hannon and my Dad was the Pharmacist, first for the Co-op and then in his own shop next to the fish and chip shop. My Mum had the hairdressers on Station Avenue. I married in 1968 in Waterhouses Church then left to move South. In 1987 we moved to Germany and in 1995 to France. I went to school in Esh Winning, first the Catholic Junior School and took my first Communion in the Catholic Church, then moved to the Protestant School, goodness knows why. One outstanding memory is when the Royal train spent the night in the village station. Can anyone remember where they were going?
