    I remember one day I was with my mother just walking to the station to get the train to Bush Hill Park where we lived and hearing the loud Putt Putt noise of a doodle bug.We and all the people around looked up and watched it fly over us to the vicinity of Enfield Highway descending rapidly,then the silence as the engine stopped,everyone waiting for the bang. I heard that it dropped on a school but I cannot be sure

    I moved to Luton as a child in the early 60s. My first school was the St Maria Convent on Rothasey Rd, Later Denbigh Road Juniors, remember our crazy Gibraltren Head Master, then Denbigh High, stern Mr Whittaker and then Luton VIth form college

    Remember Bikes at the Sun and the Cock Inn, Dances at the Queensway. Saturdays by the flamingos in the Arndale. centre. Horseriding at Lilley Riding School, peacocks at Whipsnade zoo

    Hi, I am desperately looking for old photographs of north Watford, particularly around 1975 onward, I looking for areas like Bruce Grove, St Albans Road or around these areas. Please could someone get in touch. Thank you.

    Yes I remember Santilly's ice cream van, lovely creamy ice cream served between wafers. We used to spend many happy days playing in Bishops Park: chasing in and out of the shrubbery and trying to avoid the park keeper; playing tennis on the courts: in the paddling pool and sand pits and so much more. It was a really lovely park.
    My sisters and I all went to All Saints Church and Guides and remember twins Jill and Jane Hudson from there’s
