March 2003, Extract from email. Helen Chalmers (email tba ), Toronto , Canada.
"Just visited your site again......I am so proud to have born in Bridgeton...when I look at the letters from all over the world from persons who lived through the war years , through poverty, unemployment, poor housing, little nutrition, school dinners and schoolboard clothing....had no toys other than balls, peevers, girds and cleeks and the dirt and broken glass you played shops with.....but had the good fortune to have had wonderful neighbours who shared your joys and sorrows and anything else that they had....We lived through hard times....and still emerged with wonderful memories and only too happy to return to our roots......
