Feb.2010, GlescaPal marymay, NSW Australia ..... that was my auntie Kate`s close !
What memories came flooding back as soon as I saw that. If my auntie Kate was alive today she`d be about 112 or so,and she had no kids. Kate Gunn,she worked in Martins Leather Works. At the close was Miss Mackintoshs sweetie shop,so my auntie always had a sweetie to give all the cousins when we visited,even during the rationing time.Lovely memories.
