From Rowan Jackson
Hi. My dad grew up in Eastleigh, started in Fareham ticket office 1927. His dad was Seargeant-Major in the Works Home Guard, My Uncle was apprentice draughtsman throughout the war, designed West Country nameplates and post-war Golden Arrow headboard. I used to bunk round the running shed most sundays in the early 60’s, and if that don’t make me Eastleigh enough, I’ve got a thumper in my garden here on the Lavender Line at Isfield. If anyone wants to circulate uncle’s story of wartime apprenticeship, contact me at ludditeagee@gmail.com.
