WHAT'S YOUR WEATHER LIKE - 2017

Yep, I remember them too, also the cobbled road in our street. Then in the late 50's the cobbles were tarmaced over and the gas lamps were replaced with electricity..........eeeeh, those were the days!! I can't say they were the good old days as the diet wasn't all that healthy, we had smog, diseases like Polio, German Measles, Scarlet Fever. On the plus side the community was closer and friendlier.....and we were too poor to rob!!

 

Good morning Bright and sunny here in the Garden of England

 

32.4F Frost on car roofs and just a light frost on front lawn but not on back lawn.

@ARMANDII you forgot the road this time

Now that my computer has had a rest it will let me download the photo

The main road, at the top of our road, was made of tarred wood blocks. When they decided to tarmac the road there was a 'free for all' rush for the hundreds of thousands wooden blocks they pulled up. I remember us rushing up and down the road with wheelbarrows full of them. They were perfect for burning on the fire but they made the Great Smog of 1952 even worse than it would have been. It helped start the nickname of 'The Big Smoke'.

 

Gosh, you had a road to your School???? You must have gone to a posh one!!

 

Good morning
