Hi flyer its me again,

the bombing in sheffield although i dont remember it, but while i was in

fulwood homes i was told about a bomb that had dropped behind lodge

moor hospital. I dont know anythink much than that but our house mother

took us boys to see the damage, it was a massive big crater.

Once the grass had grown over it and when we went for picnic`s

we would play in the hole, had great fun.

------------------

and whatever you have eaten just make sure its digested, we dont want

any undergoing problems.

I would have liked to find their grave's just to pee on them and i'm being kind, its a known fact that you was lucky to land up with the only house mother that was said to be kind,my friend(name Turner) that was in your house once told me how nice she was I remember being quite shocked because i'd never heard of that before,just luck of the draw

yes flyer, my house mother was miss lindley no 6, i missed her when she passed away while i was in the homes.

Then we had miss marshall a new house mother, i wasn`t very keen on her sumut about her.

My brother was in no 2 and he got on with miss royston, as you said its luck of the draw.

Oh well, but i`ve turned out o, k.

hi flyer back again after a break,

that o.k regarding your last mail, i went off rails a bit when

we had miss marshall as the new house mother in no 6, i just didn`t like her , and for most of the good hiddings she gave me i

was part`ly to blame and i wasn`t always a good lad.

<< i was stubborn and cheeky >>

but i did get on with the boys and we had lots of fun and laughs,

but still , i was happy in the homes.

The one dirty trick miss marshall the house mother did to me

was, on the morning i was to leave the homes for good, the boys

didn`t know.

She only told me after the boys had gone to school, and then

at mid - day she said there`s your bags now walk upto the office

to be met by the officials.

I never got the chance to say my good bye`s to my house mates

and friends, that really hurt.
