I lived in North Marston in the 1950s, at 25 Quainton Road My Grandfather Ezra Rawlings was a tailor. I remember bonfire night on the sports field, cycling down Church Hill, Christmas carols, Friday night youth club in the school hall and being sent to the Cox's shop for a packet of Woods or Weights cigarettes for my grandfather.
I emigrated to Australia in 1961, but I will never forget the fun I had in North Marston, with Jim Tattam, Simon Carter, and Janet Gowin, also David Holden, and the rest of our gang, I also remember Lawrence Young standing as umpire in his white dust coat, and I was the scorer for the village cricket team. In those days we made our own fun, and was never bored, I feel sorry for the youth of today, they say they have nothing to do.
If any body reading this, knows the where abouts of Sandra Tickner, who was a Whitchurch lass, I would very much like to get in touch with her.
