I vaguely remember the end of the war, mainly because this man came into our life, my Dad. The winter of 1947, it was never ending, but as kids it was great,slides everywhere. We all later had Bikes, second hand ones, and most of us modified them.The 50s I was growing up. 1952 I went on the Train from Wolverhampton to Edinburgh, 7 hours and i had my dinner on the train, I think 7/6d with the train sat in Crewe station. met at Edinburgh by my Aunt and went on another ytrain and bus for miles.Re: I remember the 1950s
