16 In 1966 Croydon

A Memory of Croydon.

In 1966 my first job was as an office junior for the Bought Leger Department at Findus for Nestle on the 18th floor. One of my jobs was to open the post and someone sent in their false teeth because they had bitten into a fish finger that was still frozen! I then went on to Commerical Union Assurance in Laud Street. I remember Mrs Mac who would not let any of us us spend more than 5 minutes in the toilet,we were timed and she would come down to apprehend us, and we were not allowed to speak to each other - very strict.

Used to see all the best bands at the Star in Broad Green, John Mayall, Cream, Graham Bond Organisation and many more. Would love to hear from anyone who was around at the same time.
