I was fostered when i left the homes and it was very strange moving into a new home, i made new friends in the street but took me awhile to settle at school and i did'nt like it. ps, did you recongnise any names i put on this thread. When you see your ronnie tell him i'am asking about him. Edited May 13, 2012 by brian1941 spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian1941 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Beside the Seaside. The journey might not have been very far but it was like the other end of the world especially for the Children that never had seen the sea befor. Connieb, what memories do you have at Redcar - Saltburn by the sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a trip there in the 80s and them huts had been taken down, the field was really bare but that farm house was still there, do you remember it in the corner that was the way in with the coaches through them gates. Happy holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian1941 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Hi Connie, Some more on the holiday, do you remember them s u t coaches lined up on Blackbrooke rd ready to take us to the coast, them old bangers of a bus they use to rattle-when they went fast. They were reliable coaches and some kids called them egg box's. Our house mother would take a white pale bucket hence the lid on the coach just in case someone wanted to be sick, she use to come round with barley suger sweets to stop any sickness. yummy yummy. Hey, dont forget them cucumber sarnies sandwiches and the beef spread we had on the coaches with a packet of smiths crisps and the blue pkt salt inside.

Hey, dont forget them cucumber sarnies sandwiches and the beef spread we had on the coaches with a packet of smiths crisps and the blue pkt salt inside. I remember the bus journey from FCH to the coast very well. Each year I/we kept an eye out for a huge white horse carved into the side of a hill en route. Does anyone know which area this would have been/is and what the history of the horse might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
