Can anyone remember in the 50s there were some door to door salesmen who seemed to be Sheikhs with turbans on? They would sell men's socks and pants from a suitcase and would give you a free gift of an ivory scarab?

There hasn't been anything in the Star about it? Surely it would be big news? -
There was a death of this name in the Star last night. It wasn't the young man who went missing in 1995 was it?

I live practically next to where it happened and witnessed the aftermath of it. I see the children coming down from school every day and it does not surprise me that there has been an accident. As with any group of kids coming out of school there is running, horseplay and pushing just about every day. Sometimes they walk in the road and totally ignore your car. I am very very sorry that this boy has been injured and hope he recovers quickly. -
What did they call the landlord who was there about 10 years ago - beautifully coiffuired hair!! The waitress was very fussy - like Mrs Overall!

why did people decide to leave Britain? I didn't think jobs etc were difficult to get in the 60s? -
Anyone got family who emigrated to Australia under £10 scheme in 1960s? Did they stay and do well or return home?
