Sandes Soldiers' Home, Table Tennis, Snooker And Swimming

A Memory of Catterick.

I spent many a happy hour playing table tennis, snooker and swimming, seems like yesterday. The top board of the swimming pool always seemed so high.

Loved the Sandes Home, I was at the nearby RAF base on training courses in the early sixties and disliked the accomodation so a room in Sandes was the answer. Also discovered via my mother that the cook at Sandes was a family friend from Ireland. What could be better? Really sorry to see that it closed. It was a lot better than the Naafi. Paul Neilands
