anyone ever travelled in wooden buses or train to go to school??
i did.. WildFlower girl.. temind me of the names.. I rem Judge which did Vergenoegen to V/H but I think there was another short-drop 1. ?
Elizabeth? Or Queen Elizabeth? ??The express from Parika to VH
?Lady Macbeth??
Later I ferried then then took the train, then a long walk on long muddy dam ( train platform was practically in canefields)
Train was scrapped mid 1974
n then the ‘adventures’ came to an end.. Tata bus was introduced. Bus was ‘jam-packed’ no fun!
Chami omg.. all of a sudden i have this memory.. dud u not break 1 of yr long long finger nails in the bus??
btw were u ever sent to rip the hem of yr ‘short’ skirt in the ladies toilet, after being equipped with a needle n thread by Mrs G (the sewing :needlework) teacher? Btw (I have her on fb n she looks the same.. same size n hairdo)
ps my skirt/uniform hem was never more than 3 ins above knees.. Mon morns after assembly, there she stood with ruler in hand to measure just case she wasnt sure ! Mine was probably an inch above my knees!!
