Hanwell Valentines Day

A Memory of Hanwell.

You used to go to a phone box and send a telegram to your valentine. To pay you put the amout the operator said into the slot in the box. If you were lucky when you got home your mum said something like, "There is a telegram for you, whats happened?" This was because telegrams were used in the war to convey bad news. I remember leaving St Thomas youth club around 2100HRS, on a wet night, with Ruth under my umbrella in the rain and cold. We were so happy in those far off days.
