So another day passes......
....and what have I done? My aspirations lie shriveled in the sun. I'm crippled by guilt and blinded by science. I've been waiting for tomorrow all my life.

There is a Charlie Edwards amusement arcade still going in Gorse Hill I think. Used to go in there after school to play a submarine arcade game. Never see anybody in there when walking by or on the bus.
That was the one I worked at for a while and my Mum was in charge of for 15 years in the 80s and 90s. Charlie passed away about 3 years ago now.

As a Walcot boy we used to love the funfair on Buckhurst Fields. Even better when Jennings used to buddy up with Edwards to make a super funfair.

In the good old days when the fairground used to be up through the main street and traffic still used to get through !. No risk assessment/health and safety in them days.

Perhaps Hodgetts can enlighten us from where he resides - deep within the Power camp?
He will be laying down in a darkened room, racked with worry about his contacts gone
