Shared Memories of Staindrop

Year: 1943
The Local
I would like to visit Staindrop again sometime to see how much it has changed since 1943. I was serving with the R.Es and we were in a tented camp on the outskirts of the town and doing Army Exercises out on the Moors and using live ammunition. I remember the local Pub because all the "live" stuff was kept in the cellars and every morning we would go there to collect what we needed . I dont know what the Landlord thought having that lot underneath him. Maybe one day I call in for a Pint and remind the present landlord that he missed a lot of exitement. Better not leave it too long as I am 85 yrs. Regards to all who read this useless information! Ron Smith Last edited: 26/08/2006 17:49 by Ron Smith |
