Not many people owned cameras for taking colour photos when we got married, so we were really lucky to get given 3 colour pictures by one of the guests. Hardly anyone went abroad for their honeymoon then - we went to Brighton.

We started married life in a caravan at Ladygrove Caravan Park, Blewbury until we were offered an AERE prefab on site at Harwell . We bought a plot of land in Didcot for £1,000 and built our own bungalow for £2,500 total. We moved into the bungalow in 1965 and soon afterwards I discovered that I was pregnant. |

Here we are at my best friend Doreen Withey's wedding. I am 6 months pregnant. With us is another friend Sandra Bosley from Harwell who used to work in Lloyds bank on AERE site with Doreen.
