Sunday Mornings.

A Memory of Stocksbridge.

From about 1961, it was my job to be up at 4.30am every Sunday so as to pack paperbags for delivery througout the valley. Then when I had passed my driving test I had to deliver the bags to the lads for them to do the rounds - all 29 of them. This was a great way for a lot of people to earn spending money especially at Christmas. One lad who held the record for 'Tips' earned £32, in those days that was a working mans weekly wage. Well done him.
