Jean Maitland: School days

I always felt sorry for poor old Florrie.

Old Miss Ireland, the one I said I didn’t like, used to ask on Monday morning who had been to church, put your hands up if you had been to church, because they didn’t like it if you didn’t go to church. Anyway Florrie put her hand up and Miss Ireland said, ‘You can put your hand down. You never went to church, you went to the Methodist Church.’

Florrie went to the chapel along South Street and so did Megan Cook (nee Buckett)
