MARIE'S ALBUM

These photos were sent to me by Marie Chiverton. She and I were raised on Mawer's farm at Porthlow. Her dad, 'Curly' and my dad, 'Tony' used to do all the work on the farm and the only other people who ever worked there at any time that I can remember, apart from my mum 'Melba' and Marie's mum 'Joyce', was Rosemary Sherris. Us kids just used to play around and I still have many happy memories of my childhood on the farm. My favourite time was the hay making season.
