Snow Time

My father was the local postman until he had a serious accident at Middle Wallop. One of my memories of Nether Wallop was him telling me how it had snowed so hard on one occasion that when he delivered mail in School Lane where the wind blew in off the aerodrome he was dropping the mail through the upstairs windows of the houses there. Also being able to walk down to Mrs Salter's shop to buy 6 pennorth of sweets. I was married in St Andrew's Church in 1968, I met my wife at the Nether Wallop post office where she worked for Mr Munn. My sister Margaret Hayward to this day still lives in Aylwards Way. I live in Australia now and the thing I miss the most is the historical feel of Nether Wallop.
