What a lot of black-coated men! Was it a funeral? An old lady told me about 1970 that the long funeral processions of the early part of the century were considered well worth watching by the local laddies. All except my father, she added. He was twelve when someone asked him why he didn't join the other boys to watch the funeral parade on the High Street.'I don't wish to indulge in such morbid curiosity, ' was his rather grand reply.
