The Welling Mods: Long Gone But Never Forgotten

A Memory of Welling.

We were like one huge crazy family, not only from Welling, but also from the surrounding towns of Blackfen, Bexleyheath, Crayford, Dartford, Eltham, Plumstead and Woolwich - even as far as from the other side of London - travelling around the club and dance hall circuit, many on scooters, in pursuit of eternal pleasure and happiness. Here in remembrance of that great Sixties era are their names:
