Some time in the late 1950's, my best school friend's family moved to Ramsbury and ran the Post office. I used to catch the coach from London every year to stay with them during the summer holidays, and we had fun playing in the stream that ran across the bottom of their garden. Sadly, I have lost touch with my friend, Pat Hill. She had a brother, Colin. I now live in Australia and wonder if anyone knows what happened to the Hill family. My memories of a true English village, are those of Ramsbury.

RE: RE: Late 1950's

I went to Ramsbury School with Colin Hill where we were in the same class. When we left the village school we both went to Marlborough Grammar School. He left in July 1959 but I have no idea where he moved to. I don't remember his sister Pat. I remember him as taller than average, slim build, with light coloured hair and glasses.
