Of course the bands were nice. We used to go and hear the bands and we used to like to see the men on parade in their uniforms. That was something new for this area you see. We went to Stratford whenever we could. We used to have an old tram, it used to be 1d or ½d for children on that old thing and you’d go over there and you’d see the men all in camp, in tents there you see, a real camp it was. Thousands of them there was actually.
