A Memory of Downderry.
My Grandfather, a former Police Sergeant, lived in Downderry and we lived there for periods in my childhood. I believe I recall Carolyn Blake, who writes one of the memories on this site. I certainly recall a Carolyn whose father, I think, was post master. I, too, was one of the boys who spent many hours out 'lobstering' with Billy Hocking or out 'drifting' on his boat, the Ella. Billy has an enormous influence on my subsequent life, giving me a great love of the sea. In my spare time, since then, I have sailed my boats over a 100,000 miles, including three crossings of the Atlantic. Julian Mounter.
