My Friend And I

A Memory of Coulsdon.

My friend Catherine Payne (Chapple) & myself Jennie Brooker (Jennifer Booth) are the 2 figures in front of the Seeboard shop in this picture. We think we are going to school but not sure but I can remember many times crossing the road here and my teenage evenings were spent in the town at the Wimpy or buying chips at the chipshop or at Marlpit Lane Rec. We often used to gather outside Woolies!

I live in Berkshire now but still feel very attached to Coulsdon and visit my friend Catherine who still lives there now.
We think the picture was taken in 1963. Catherine spotted it in the Opticians in Coulsdon recently and emailed me and I went over to see it there. Am now awaiting my very own canvas print from Frances Frith!
If you remember me please get in touch!
