Ken Dodd

A Memory of Shrewsbury.

This date is approximate.

My mother used to work in the Raven, as a school girl at St Mary's on Town Walls I used to wait for her to finish work. I can remember the place as being very beautiful.

Once my mother came home with a signed photograph of Ken Dodd, she said he was a gentleman, but I remember she wasn't very keen on Norman Wisdom she said he was very miserable, which was a shame to hear because I thought he was a very funny man.

I lived at 13 Abbotts House Butchers Row and my mother worked as a receptionist at the Raven Hotel in Shrewsbury and remembers Joe Loss staying there, I think they must have been playing at the Gaumont where she performed
with the Shrewsbury Amatuer Operatic Society.
