LFR May 3 Number 504




Welcome to the Laws Family Register. 

================================================================
Did you see that!

"Did you see that?" Emma asked. "It looked like a Witch on a Broomstick". 

          "Come on! Pull the other one. It’s got bells on it.” Robert answered quickly doing his best to keep the battered Landrover on the road. “Where did she go? What am I saying, there's no such thing as witches, is there?"

          "Go left here, now!" Emma grabbed at his arm, as he wrestled with the lurching car; he swung hard left into another narrow lane.

          "Heck that was a tight one, I hope we don't meet anyone, it 's a bit narrow down here." Robert said.

They bounced from one pothole to the next, grass growing at the centre of the road, the trees meeting over their heads making the road, like a tunnel.

          Robert turned to Emma and said, "I can't see far in these lanes, can you, I best slow down else we'll crash!”

LFR 22 Aug Number 615

North Berwick, East Lothian, Scotland Welcome to the Laws Family Register.   A Child of  the Twenties A suburban childhood of the Twenties  seen from the Ninteen Nineties by my late father John Robert Laws 1921-2008 Part 16 Holidays 1, Holidays at that time meant the seaside, and the seaside meant the East Coast, Sunshine, East winds sand, and an icy grey sea. June was the preferred month, until school became important enough to interfere. My mother packed vast quantities of clothing in a big cabin trunk, which must have gone on ahead; it certainly didn’t come in the car with us. It took a good three hours to cover seventy odd miles to the coast.  Bypass was an almost unknown word and certainly wasn’t applicable to even the Essex county town of Colchester, the first time of two, that we went that way. One was built in the next couple of years but now some sixty odd years later has been virtu...
