Childhood Memories

A Memory of Lowestoft.

My mum Ruby Osbourne born in 1913 and her brothers and sisters grew up in Lowestoft. She married my dad a sailor in the Royal Navy and was then Ruby Pearce. She later moved to Wiltshire with my two brothers due to the Second World War. I as a child have so many happy memories of Lowestoft staying on the North Denes camping site, listening to stories of mums school days and how she fell down Corton Cliffs and was saved by her knitted suit, sitting in my Aunt Gladys garden with 1/2 a pint of shrimps to keep me busy. I loved the Sparrows Nest, swing bridge with its harbour and the Punch and Judy show which was always on the South Beach. I wonder if there is anyone around who remembers Ruby Osbourne?
