Paper Round

A Memory of West Harling.

I remember West Harling very well. In 1960's, I delivered papers all along West Harling before catching the bus to school at Old Buckenham. The paper shop in East Harling Market Square was run by Mrs Pratt. I asked her for a wage increase (I was paid ten shillings a week), she asked why? Not being prepared for this question I said, "because of all the shoe leather I wear out" - I got the sack! I got my revenge by telling everyone on the school bus that her first name was Aphelia.
