COACH AND HORSES AT WRANGLE
Mother and Father had just tried another enterprise.
Between 1954 and 1955 they ran a country pub, about 15 miles
outside Boston, at Wrangle, on the road to the coast.
They seemed very popular and the pub business at the
“Coach and Horses” was always brisk but they just could not
keep the money together.
I was in charge of the gardens, well, lawns anyway and
thoroughly enjoyed tinkering with the huge ancient petrol
powered mower. Probably the first engine I was independently
responsible for! I was 10 years old now.
