Dinner Money

A Memory of Plaxtol.

I was born in Plaxtol in 1941 and went to the local Primary school. When in Mr Nichols' class I was chosen to take the school dinner money to the post office every Monday. The postmistress was Miss Bacon, one of two sisters who ran the post office. She was a lovely woman and one day she gave me a beautiful fountain pen which I really treasured until Brian Humphreys accidentally shut it under the lid of my desk which ruined the nib!
Many happy memories of my time in the village which I left to get married in 1965.
