A Few

Recollections

 

John Stevenson, Trinity, Edinburgh wrote:

Mending Nets

"I remember the net park, with clothes poles, behind the school, near the Peacock Hotel, at Newhaven.

The  women mended the nets, and we, children, earned 3d or 6d for cutting string into short lengths for them."

 

Walter Lyle Hume, Cowes, Isle of Wight wrote:

Market Buffet

"Being one of elder generation, I certainly do remember the Market Buffet, and the Market Police who were all acknowledged as being first class filleters.

The Buffet used to be very busy with Market people.   It used to be run by the McColl family. Isa was a neighbour of ours in Craighall Crescent.

My grandfather and family, Trawler Owners and Fish Salesmen, had offices in the Market so we got to know the area very well."

 

Betty Moss

Old Chain Per

Ian Ruickbie, Johannesburg, South Africa, wrote

"Betty had an eclectic collection of memorabilia, most sent to her by her son:

-  the gaudy kimonos she always wore

-  the oriental slippers

-  the bamboo glasses

-  the extra-long ivory cigarette holders

-  shrunken heads

-  several dangerous looking swords,

-  etc."

Rab Duncanson, Sunbury, Victoria, Australia, wrote:

"Betty lived on the other side of the street.  A taxi used to pick her up, do a U-turn and out she would get.

She brandished a cutlass and a starting pistol at closing time, and sometimes an old football rackety thing that she would wave round her head."

Geoff Bonney, South Africa, wrote.

"I have a vivid recollection of Betty Moss from a visit in the 1960s.  She was a little spelk of a woman in a brightly coloured kimono, with a gold chain belt, those fancy glasses, and ear-rings dangling onto her shoulders, and curly gingery hair, so sparse one could see through to her scalp, but what a character!
