Friday luncheons at Tillys from Jean Ryder
During the years of 1959-1960 I worked as secretary in the Education Centre at RAF Mildenhall. One of my favourite memories of that time was having lunch at Tillys Pantry every Friday.

Stationed at a nearby American Air Force base, I visited Newmarket frequently. My favourite pub was in the Carlton Hotel. I remember the murals between the front and back bars. I preferred the back bar. I and several other airmen took ballroom dance lessons upstairs in the Carlton. Sadly, I never mastered those. I had spent so many evenings in the... [more]
