Snowed In
A Memory of Carlisle.
If my memory is correct it was the winter of 1940/41 when I was a teenager, working for a long distance transport company from the midlands. We had left Carlisle on our way south via Shap Fell when we were caught in a blizzard and the roads were impassable. Our lorries had to be left on Shap and somehow we got back to Carlisle and I think for about two whole weeks or so we were marooned there. Fortunately we found lodgings with the Harrison family at either 3a or 4a West Tower Street. I have never forgotten the kindness shown to us by the mother, Mrs. Harrison and her daughter Nora. If any of that family are still around I would love to get in touch with them so if anyone reading this has information on them please get in touch at dnr55@shaw.ca
