Year: 1955
Teenage Years
I was born in Worthing in 1938 and lived in Sompting so grew up in the area until I was conscripted in 1958, and subsequently stayed in the Army but removed to Andover in Hampshire on leaving the Military, although I still have family in Lancing.
I spent a very happy teenage from leaving school until call up, in Lancing.
My happiest memories were being a member of the Lancing Repertory Players for about 4 years from 1954 to 1958. I had a good few friends there and although not a very accomplished performer I had a few appearances with them.
I had a very good social life with the members of the club, also some workmates, but as we were all of the same age we all ended up in one of the services.
I still come back to visit family but the change in the area with new buildings and the vast amount of traffic I do not like, after living in rural Hampshire it is like going to a big city when I remember the quiet small town I left behind. Such happy memories.
