Pagham in The Sixties Continued

The Entrance to Church Farm c1965
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Following on to the mention of Jessie Booth and husband who lived at Waverley in Lagoon Road - I had the pleasure of knowing husband George Booth (the General) as also called, whilst serving my apprenticeship with the Electricity Board at the Bognor depot, 1963 to 1968. George was a really nice guy, so easy going, we used to cycle miles around the area going from one job to another. He was so well liked that customers would ask if that nice Mr Booth would be coming. I can remember a rewire at one of the converted railway carriages on East Front road, where all of the wiring was surface clipped and George carefully cutting the wire nails so that the skin of the ceiling was not punctured, thus keeping the rain out! Not too far away, in Sea Lane, another Electricity Board employee Charlie Major and wife, long associated with the Pagham Chestnuts group.
