Memorial Avenue Shiplake
A Memory of Shiplake.
My father's family came from Henley but we often stayed with his cousin and his wife who lived in Memorial Avenue. It seemed so far away but today I can get to Henley in about 40 minutes - I remember so many things - bingo down at the church hall - the Italian family who lived next door - the Pannis I think, there was a daughter called Rita. My fathers cousin kept chickens which (being a townie) both fascinated and terrified me - particularly one called Gregory (Peck?!?). I also remember us all walking to 'The Black Boy' in the dark - no street lighting in those days - and my tipple as a child was Kitty Cola unique to that area. All in the past now but happy happy times..........
